Freeware Game Pick: The Eggyard (Yxxa Zu, Monochrome)
The Eggyard is a single-screen art game mashup of Custer's Revenge featuring Dizzy as the main character. In it, players attempt to guide our old buddy to the end of a short level without being hit by coffins falling from the sky.

You forgot to mention the part about how horrible this game is.
I mean, I'm all for games as art, but this isn't really art, and it's not fun at all.

In the event that someone doesn't realize this, The Eggyard is a parody of (or at the very least an allusion to) The Graveyard.

Hi all, there will be a slightly updated version in a couple of days that will sort some things out. If you were initially offended by the game, I hope it will show what the thing really is. It was just to test the idea which not all of us fully subscribed to (hence pseudonyms), but as time goes, I see that it's not as bad as it seemed. It just need a pair of touches here and there so it would be clear.
By the way, mentioned 'meteors' are coffins if you look closer.
