the2bears opens his trenchcoat and reveals N

N game

the2bears, the resident indy game nut, has pointed us to another obscure classic. His taste for the finer things has him scouring the WWW for stuff he can enjoy for mere pennies (or for free, of course). Now he holds up N in our face and dares us to try something that isn't accelerated by our 500 dollar cards. N is a simple freeware title that lets you run around as a ninja in a defiantly 2D world. The touch that sets the title apart from many others is its fascinating physics. The 300 levels you run through provide an infinite number of ways to die realistically. It's hard to explain N's charm. Let's put it this way, if you've ever had flying dreams you'll want to check out N.
