It's not so clever to fall into lava all the time

For your Flash Friday consideration, I offer a quirky platform game with a physics engine to challenge your dexterity and puzzle-solving ability. In Box Clever, you take on the role of the Blue Blob, who searches for the exit in a succession of side-view platform worlds and is rewarded by gentlemanly attire.
If you don't find the 15 levels of the older version sufficient, or want the option of skipping over an annoying level or three, you can play the extended Level Pack version with 40 more levels. Both versions have easy tutorial levels in the beginning, so you can easily pick up the gameplay in either one. There are also walkthrough videos and even a level editor.

Why is it so satisfying to drown The Diseased in that river of blood?

Which was like ... 1990? One of the first cross-platform "shareware" games, if I remember ... (i.e. you got X levels for free with paid "codes" to unlock the rest).

This is fun (though as someone who uses the arrow keys instead of WASD, I hate the button+mouse interface for platform games.)

Man, that Oxyd video is giving me major flashbacks. The sound effects in particular. I'll have to send that to my dad!
