Great IK Game

Just ran across a nice game using similar inverse kinematics to that famouse “falling girl” thing that was making the rounds last year.

This is “Blast Billy”, where you get to … well … blast Billy around this cavern. Made by David Thorburn and hosted by TeaGames. The IK and physics are very well done, and the graphics are simple, but very nice. The game play itself could use a bit more excitement, as you are just moving the character around the cavern collecting stars. Maybe in higher levels there are things to avoid or things that attack you, but I didn’t run into any, and there’s no mention of them.
