Indie Game Pick: Windosill (Patrick Smith)
Windosill is an odd interactive toy disguised as a sequence of puzzles for the players to solve, available to play on both Windows and OS X operating systems. The game basically involves searching for a key cleverly hidden somewhere in each scene, and once you've found this particular item you can then use it to unlock the door that hinders your progress from the current room to the next.
Access to the first half of the game is free, but to play the second half you will need to purchase an activation code that costs three US dollars. (source, walkthrough)

Waw !
I like this kind of experimental game :)
Very addictive and creative !
The design is exceptional for a flash game too.
Really Worth more than 3$ !

Your loss, Anonymous! I paid for it sight-unseen, since I'm a huge fan of Vectorpark. It was well worth the money. I played through it twice, once by myself and once with my four-year-old son. Very cool.

That's a really nice game. I had forgotten all about Vectorpark.

It seems I can't download it. When I press the download button I get to the "Save as.." option, but if I click on save nothing happens. Neither in Firefox, nor in Internet Explorer.
Is there a direct download link or so?

Never mind, it did work. Silly me..
So far this game is really very nice and seemingly well worth the few dollars :)

I paid through paypal but I didn't receive any activaton code. Do I miss something or do I have to wait for an email?

Why would I bother paying for it when I can play many other "find the x" games for free?
What about this games is worth paying $3?

I'm also pretty impressed with Feed the Head, another (free) game by the same guy:

It's well worth $3 to encourage him to keep making things.
