Freeware Game Pick: Jump, Copy, Paste (Arvi Teikari)
Jump, Copy, Paste is a 2D platformer in which you overcome obstacles by copy and pasting parts of a level to build new platforms or create a passage through a wall. Parts which are greyed out cannot be affected by your copy and paste ability, so players need to work around those areas as they collect all yellow pieces to unlock the exit door.
There are seventeen levels to play through, and the game does get trickier with the introduction of bad guys, laser beams, switches, portals and even sawblades in the latter stages. (Windows, 2.20MB)

Really cool concept. I had fun playing this.

Definitely worth a try. The puzzles are clever, but never become terribly difficult.

I remember an old (2008 or 2009) flash game with this same idea on Newgrounds. If I could just remember the name.

Though now that I look at cutcopypastegnome, it works very differently and approaches the idea from a totally different view, even though the basic idea of copying, cutting and pasting is similar.

Yes, that's the one, indeed.
