Nimbus is a unique combination of racing & puzzling. The player controls a craft with no means of directly propelling itself and needs to use whatever is scattered around the levels to acquire thrust and reach the goal. Traverse a world map with several distinct islands in order to recover your lost love. Light on story, but heavy on gameplay Nimbus offers several hours of increasingly harder challenges.

PeregrineT's review of Nimbus

A fun concept ruined by terrible controls. Unfortunately the developer thought it would be a good idea to invert the controls. The left right controls are inverted and in a game that requires precise controls and bouncing off of objects not only is it strange but you cant change it. Then, up and down is a whole other world of wierd and different controls. The gameplay itself is fun until you get to the point puzzles become very hard to beat, not due to the difficulty of normal movement, but the difficulty of trying to use a poorly designed contorl scheme.
