Swindler
Police are on the lookout for a slimy, green bandit stealing everyone's coins. It's none other than Swindler, Nitrome's latest challenge. You've got to dangle the blobby bandit and turn the world around to get him to the treasure, all while dodging some fierce enemies and deadly traps. Can you pull off the perfect, albeit sticky, heist?

Absorb you with one touch? Like an Abzorbaloff? :)
I want to like it, I really do, but it feels really clumsy.
Fantastic mechanics! very original and fun. A little too unforgiving, maybe :P
Agree w/Diego - would be more absorbing to use my second life and continue on from whence i was absorbed
Like most Nitrome games I really want to like it, but there is something that drives me away after 1 or 2 levels.
I was enjoying it up to the second bomb level. I only tried once to get the bomb past the fans - I could feel the rage building even before I got to the first fans. I wish it would just have trickier and trickier puzzles, and not also require more and more dexterity.
Nice concept, but after the second level I decided I didn't want to have to deal with avoiding that pair of instant death balls three times in a row.
For the second bomb level,
I just dropped the bomb past the fans and rotated the stage so it would blow the barrier up.
I think it's a pretty good game. I'll probably give up a few more levels in though, since it's a Nitrome game.
Winner! 375 :)
Like others I would have passed after a few levels, but since it got Physics Game of the Year... I just kept telling myself "be a gamer, like you once were"... plenty of puzzling challenges (level 23 wow) and yes demanding -- but fun and a well-deserved award!
