Freeware Game Pick: BlockOn (cactus)
BlockOn is a short platformer by cactus where players must attempt to reach the red door in each level by placing blocks to create a safe path towards it. Left click to add a block, or right click to remove one. Hold a button while moving the mouse cursor around to continuously generate or delete blocks. Press the space key to start the game and tap the R key to restart it.
Once you've gained control over your character, use the W, A and D keys to move him or her around the stage. Expect to encounter a couple of surprises along the way. Made in under three hours with a limited CGA palette for colours. (source: The Poppenkast)

I know that making excellent games in very short lengths of time is one of the main things that Cactus is known for, but I found this one really extraordinary.
The art style is really unique, the gameplay mechanism is fantastic and basically everything works brilliantly.
