Browser Game Pick: Underworld Trip (Yoshio Ishii, Yossa)
Nekogames' Underworld Trip is a platformer created in a style that is similar to Terry Cavanagh's Don't Look Back, where players will attempt to figure out what has happened to them by journeying deeper into the realm of the dead.
Throughout your adventure you will encounter numerous traps and obstacles which kills instantly on contact. There is no health system to allow for second chances, although you can restart from the beginning of a particular scene at any time with the use of the R key.
There are a total of eight stages to play and six single screen endings to discover, but you would have to replay the entire game starting with the first level in order to view another short end sequence. (ending requirements)

Hows about that first screen? I'm not a fan of dieing during the tutorial, when it's not even tutorial-related.

That was rather interesting, and also very entertaining... The ending I got was super weird. I liked it!

Can anybody translate some of that? I'm so confused...I ended up with some screen of a bunch of samurais fighting a demon?

Really awesome game. I got a really weird ending with some kind of fat ghost-looking creatures standing all around me.

I didn't like it very much, controls too slippery and too unforgiving!

@Chetyre:
The endings go as follows: (btw SPOILERS)
If you don't die:
Any door: Heaven (not really worth the effort to get this ending).
If you die from 1 to 5 times:
Any door: You get reborn (this is awesome )
If you die more than 5 times:
Door 1: Hell
Door 2: Hungry Gost (ghoul) Realm
Door 3: Animal Realm ( my dictionary also says it means "incest" wtf)
Door 4: Asura Realm/Carnage
Door 5: Random ( any of the hells )
Door 6: Random ( any of the hells )
Hope that helps.
