A small puzzle-plarform game that is somewhat entertaining.

In the game you are a pikachu-like character trying to put all of your offspring into the doorway in order to progress. To do that you must solve more and more complicated environmental puzzles - figure correct order to gather your offspring without killing them or yourself.

The graphic is a standard a bit retro 2D style platformer graphic. Not extremely cute but does the job well and look good. Controls are nothing to pick about either - work and behave well.

The puzzles are interesting enough to keep you going although the whole game feels a little like a mobile game. You solve a puzzle or two in between stuff that you do normally and come back to it at a later time. Admittedly there is quite a handful of puzzles to try and ability to both create custom levels and load new ones from the internet.

Overall I can enjoy the game for some time and move on before coming back for a little bit more. Nothing really keeps you sucked in to finish all the levels.

An adorable puzzler playable on a 6-year old PC running Windows ME. While the puzzles remain rather light, they're certainly clever, using mechanics hinted it through the titles of levels (a feature I certainly appreciate in many browser puzzlers), puzzles rarely require frustrating levels of I Wanna Be The Guy precision. There are numerous target times per level that supposedly unlock extra features, but I did not really feel compelled to continue once the game was finished. Heck, I couldn't do that on Super Meat Boy, so Offspring Fling didn't have a change at time-based unlocks.

Playing as a pointy-eared Kirby with whiskers is a super-cute experience for super-cute people. Tiny cat-Kirbies make super-cute squeaky noises when thrown, super-cute parent (probably mum, but I'm not familiar enough with cat-Kirby biology to understand their parenting habits; it could be like a seahorse for all I know) makes super-cute animations whenever trouble befalls the super-cute children, even the super-cute enemies appear mushed up into a tiny ball of super-cute ferocity! They're all nice touches on a game I recommend in case you're ever stuck at your parents' place for a holiday and you're bored out of your mind.
