    Brrrr... it's so cold. So very cold.

    Brian, being the robot that he is, can usually tolerate such conditions, however there is something that is making Brian freeze up inside. It's his heart.

    He fell asleep last night in the normal way that he does - curled up on the floor in the middle of his favourite server farm - but he awoke to a strange emptiness in his chest. He looked down and saw a gaping hole where his heart once was. How will he ever love again?

    If he falls you must be there to pick him up, if he loses his way you must be there to guide him back to his path. You must challenge death itself for it is meaningless, only life, love and Brian exist.

    /*
    Brian is a puzzle platform game, it has 25 progressively more challenging levels, and an editor!
    If you make a level that you're particularly proud of and want to share, take a screenshot (press home and power) and email it to us who knows might feature it in future map packs!

    My dad says : "It's the best iPhone game I've ever played! Though it is the only iPhone game I've ever played... will you get me an iPhone for my birthday?"

    My partner says : "Awesome, that is actually really fun! So... are you ever going to get a proper job, or is this it?"

    The person I buy my coffee from says : "Wow, that is pretty cool! But you're kind of holding up the line here."

    Solve a jigsaw of light by blending colors and combining geometric shapes, in a cerebral challenge that's as relaxing as it is addictive. Chromixa is a unique and highly stylized puzzle title, guaranteed to satisfy, challenge and beguile in equal measure.

    ABOUT
    Beginning life as a digital art project, Chromixa is the enchanting result of designer Simon Watson’s fascination with light. Inspired by noted artists such as James Clar and James Turrell, Chromixa’s first incarnation was a real life installation built from 100s of red, green and blue LEDs, a micro-controller, plexiglass, and one very creative brain.

    With the concept of physically interactive light mixing at its core, Chromixa has gone through many evolutions, reaching its zenith as an exciting new puzzle genre on the App Store. The simplicity of blending primary colours and fitting tangram-style geometric shapes together offers a uniquely stimulating and addictive interactive experience.

    GAMEPLAY
    Arrange colored shapes of light to complete beautifully designed puzzles. Primary colors of red, green and blue are rotated, positioned and overlaid to create new tones as shapes overlap. Like a jigsaw of light, your goal is to arrange the shapes to fill an outline with a single color.

    Completing puzzles unlocks fun arcade-style mini games, each with its own unique take on color mixing. Like all good puzzle titles, Chromixa is built upon a simple yet endlessly expandable concept, that unfurls to create progressively discerning challenges that are fun, beautiful and offer pleasing mental agility exercises for all ages.

    "A unique and very nice puzzle game." - TouchArcade.com (http://tiny.cc/Chromixa4)

    "Chromixa is a great brainteaser yet quite simple and even relaxing, especially if you turn up the volume and listen to the soothing soundtrack. Puzzle game enthusiasts will rejoice." - MacWorld.com (http://tiny.cc/Chromixa6)

    I didn't expect so many people to like the list - I thought people would think it's useless :). Don't worry, I'll continue updating it.

    I thought I had it somewhere...too lazy to search :rolleyes:. Thanks.

    I like the list on the front Mew if its not too much trouble, it also helps me figure if the game is already added so I don't post repeats. Thanks for all you do, I love this thread (in case you couldn't tell already!)

    @goiMot Sheepish is one of the first listed in the third post on the first page. Doesn't hurt to get a reminder though.
