In this game, the player, you, are a dragon and you must fly. Unfortunately you are a fat dragon and must flap your wings as fast as you can in order to fly. Not only that, but you are undergoing metamorphosis like in Eragon the movie. (Terrible compared to the book, by the way) This means that you are putting on more and more weight. In this game, you must tap the screen as fast as you can, getting as high into the air before the metamorphosis makes you to heavy for you to flap your wings to keep up with. The game will end when the dragon hits the ground, and score is based on the length of time that the player was able to stay in the air for. If you are able to flap your wings fast enough, then you will be reverted to a dragon hatchling and may start the cycle over, the speed at which you will need to flap your wings will increase with each hatching though.

In the first part of the game, the player must carefully remove each item from the house and into a moving truck. The player will have to be carefull as there are posters on the wall that can be easily ripped, and fragile heirlooms that can shatter with just a slight bump.

Today you are me, and you like loud music. Very loud music, deafeningly loud music.

The player must also avoid the pen, for the pen can hurt them, meaning that they won't be able to heal all of the other blobs. The pen will follow the nearest blob, meaning that if the pen starts to follow the player, the only chance for survival is to sacrifice another blob by putting it between the player and the pen. The player also has the ability to lose control of movement when crossing where the pen has been. The player will know where the pen has been by the ink trail. Due to the limited size (1 A4) it is possible for the board to be completely covered in ink, meaning the player will have no control over their movement.
