Post by: Widget on January 17, 2011, 16:24:07: It's not actually a NightSky clone, it's a very different game that uses some similar principles. I can't say I particularly enjoyed the game but it deserves to be taken for what it is, a pretty unique game that appears to've been inspired by NightSky.

Give it a shot before you jump to conclusions ;)

Post by: Mathexpert on January 17, 2011, 20:16:06: Yeah, its completely different, besides the art

Post by: Mathexpert on January 19, 2011, 00:08:31: well, its a twin. The reason why this is the evil twin is because while the art is the same, its based off violence. :P BTW, Nightpimmel's controls are horrendously horrible. (yes, a double negative is necessary)

That's worse than trundle!
look at the tags.
   * ball
   * nifflas
   * nightsky
   * physics
   * platformer

However, judging by the info and the poor graphics, it seems as if it's intended to be poking fun at Night Sky.
Edit:
I'll admit I laughed, and the sun and trees are quite pretty for a spoof.
