This stuff is why I want to get into game development. Just sublime!

Basically, think of it as the Nickelodeon cartoon Chalk Zone come to life, except this time you're using crayons. You guide the round red ball into the waiting yellow star (made from crayon, naturally) by drawing crayon blocks from out of the atmosphere. It's extremely inventive from a gameplay mechanic point of view, and just beautiful to look at.
What even more amazing is that the developer did all this within a 7-day deadline. The next version promises to allow shapes other than rectangles.
EDIT: Scratch that. He did this in 5 days. Incredible.
