You have just escaped from a mental institution. You’re on the run. The sun is shining, the birds are singing. You are jumping happily from cloud to cloud. You know that the only way to freedom is by reaching the ship at the end of the level. A cute bunny is jumping towards you, blocking your path. By pushing a button the whole world flips around and shows its dark side. The bunny is now an evil nurse who is trying to stop you from getting away. You headbutt her, clearing your path. With a push of the button the world flips back and shows its light side again. “Play FLIPSIDE and see the world through the eyes of a madman” FLIPSIDE is a platform game that allows you to experience the world from two sides. Pick a side! Please check our website for information about Team 3, FAQ and more.
Creativity in Constraints

Great Mod. I just finished it, its pretty hard...and short. But the Idea is awesome. I hope to see a few more levels or user generated stuff soon.
Haha, a game about Hannibal Hildorf.
To those of you (probably most of you) who don't know... Hannibal Hildorf is a real person. He is from Denmark and is insanely happy. He makes music that is really happy/annyoing. Here is his site:

My subject line really says it all. Very amazing work, I'm very impressed by this and hope to see more eventually. There's not enough sidescrollers out there these days and this really takes the cake. Wow guys, and this is the first project I've commented on (I think). I love the artistic style, I love the side scrolling, I love the game play elements. Great job.
It's all about respect..
Hmmm, I didnt have any problems with the install file. It's either been fixed or your file was somehow corrupted. I'd try clearing your cache files and redownloading from the download section.
"Why is it so difficult to headbutt the enemies? Sometimes it doesn't seem to work?"
This seems to be a frequently asked question.
The headbutting can be tricky, but there is certainly no randomness involved. Once you master it, it works every time. Here is a little advice:
- You can't headbutt if you run right into the enemies. Keep a small distance.
- The headbutting takes a little while so don't step back right after you have pressed the button. Stay until you can see the headbutt is done.
- Observe the attack pattern of the enemies. The best moment to attack them is after they have tried to attack you.
- Try to get close to the enemies on the lush side where they won't hurt you. Then switch to the gloomy side and attack. If it fails, you can switch back to the lush side to be safe again.

How do you manage to create an innovative plaformer out of a rather innovative-ish FPS?
I should add that I had no problems with "The Way" mod. Hope that helps in solving the bug.
it wont install. installer says skipped for every single file, and it does nothing.
