How unbelievably cool is this? Mightier is an experimental puzzle game where the puzzles in the form of simple gridded-out sheets with objectives and static objects like elevators built-in. You’re supposed to print them out and draw on an actual solution, which is then scanned via webcam and put in the game. What you draw turns into a landscape, and you jetpack your little guy around (you can also draw the guy) to finish the job. Talk about breaking the 4th wall.

Unfortunately it’s Windows only and I’m on my Mac lappy right now; anyone care to give it a shot tell us how it goes? It’s free, what have you got to lose?
