The Catapult by OinkIguana
Default controls:
Arrow keys - move
Z - select
X - menu
C - Run / Cancel
Two floating worlds are joined together by large cords. On one are the poor, and the other the Nobles. Stanley doesn't like being poor and wants to go to the Nobles' Land. Help him get across the Chasm and reach his future!
The Windows version runs a faster and the sounds are smoother than in the HTML5 one, though both are playable.

After that it was funny, not too not to difficult. a very good entry !
Yet, I think the music was killing the mood, not bad but a quieter would have been better.
my favorite quote : "I know bacon is very special to you mum" :D
I'll consider continuing it one day - Get some nicer graphics, fix this sound loudness that seems to be an issue for some, and then make it longer. I have a number of other serious game ideas that I'll have to work on (and hopefully sell) so I'm not sure about it.

Nice menu system btw.
I really think i'd be work to polish and finish the game. There doesn't seem to be much missing to make a great small game. Good job on your entry !
Also, glad you like the menu system - I've gone through many attempts until settling on this one.
Someone else mentioned that the controls feel laggy, I think it's because of the grid system. Pokemon seems to get away with it, but I think their player moves faster. I would have been fine if the player's run speed was the default walk speed.
I really want to know what's in Ms. Wren's garage now.
Still, that's really good as for 48 hours.
