Malka, a bold little adventurer, has discovered what appears to be an ancient temple that has been rediscovered before. Curious, the child explores the inner chambers ready for anything. Texts written in an understood script and language indicate a room hiding sacred artefacts, which peaks Malka's interest.

The chambers are dark for the most part, but through one narrow hall, a small bright light appears to shine. Malka investigates only to find a dead end. "Huh? But there's light coming through. How...?" Taking one step, the child trips on a stone and tumbles straight into the illuminating rocky wall. Puzzled, Malka arises unharmed on the other side. "Now where am I?"


Help Malka explore the hidden chamber.


To play the game, first download the '.p3d' file available. To run this, you must have the Panda3D Runtime installed. Get it from panda3d.org/get

Gelatin men duke it out in a gelatin arena.

NOTE: I am not sure the legality of this, but in a sudden burst of insight I realized what was making the game unplayable. It was a simple fix, so I fixed it, and uploaded.

NOTE2: Just realized that I forgot to use the skellington package. Sorry about that...We learned a lot on our first run.

Bogey's going to get his revenge , whatever the cost ! You gotta get the bonus at the end of each level to gain height , use the wibbly wobbly state to walk on walls and absorb items to solve puzzles . Well that's how it was supposed to be but actually it's a pretty basic 2d platformer . Hope you'll enjoy it .

    Professor Wilberforce Wobleigh (known as "Wibbly" to his friends) was well-known for coming up with eccentric ideas, but his latest one -- using gelatin as a construction material -- has to take the cake. Or some kind of dessert, anyway.

    "It'll be fine," he said. "I'll just bathe it in mild 1.21GHz microwave radiation to spin-lock the molecules in place. It'll hardly wobble at all..."

    In the ancient days, long ago, roughly a forntight...so two weeks I guess, the forest was a peaceful place.

    But not so today!

    Today is the time for vengeance and letting bloodless bloodletting sate your bloodlust... Or something. Anyway, the enemy forces probably have a base there.

    Honestly, we don't know, and we don't care enough to send more than one ship; that one ship is you!

    The inertial stabilizers on your ship are a bit busted, so you may have some trouble maintaining a steady altitude.

    Good Luck Pilot

    During an experiment involving nutrient-rich slime and possibly electricity, a small wobbly organism gained sentience. However, the scientist (completely oblivious to our poor Mr. Wobbly) found the experiment's result lacking and promptly flushed the slime down the toilet.

    Rather unhappy about being stuck in a dark sewage, Mr. Wobbly has to find a way out.

    You are Mr. Wobbly.
