You are a robot inside a computer of some sort. Your job is to destroy viruses. These viruses take the form of laser turrets, and you'll have to avoid their line of fire or be destroyed nearly instantaneously. To do this, you'll have to manipulate gravity.
Don't let the platformer-like appearance fool you, it's 100% puzzles. The game will never kill you, only you can kill yourself. And you will, frequently.

It didn't to take long to realize this is arcade like. The whole board isn't presented on the screen, so you have to get blown up over and over to learn what you can't see off the screen and then remember what is there once you start again.
I think it would rate much better in the arcade section.
I think that what Sasquatchx, MC, and AC were talking about.
As far as your work, it was well done. Very Captivating.

This way, you have to just 'Try and Guess' over and over until you learn what is on the part of the board that you can't see.
This trail and error and learn as you go is just what makes an excellent arcade game. Something that is guaranteed to keep you pumping quarters into it.
There is no trial and error. In fact, the game is specifically designed to kill you if you attempt trial and error, because it's the exact opposite of the way the game is supposed to be played.
I think people are beginning to lose the meaning of what a Puzzle is.
So Much of the stuff listed in the Puzzle section really belongs in the Arcade section.
How can a person fairly evaluate software in the Puzzle section if it is really an Arcade game?
A perfect example would be "Tower of Hanoi" is a puzzle and "Pac-Man" is Arcade.
Also, Minimal isn't anything like Incorporeus.
