A downloadable game for Windows

Use z/x to move the Finicky Paw of Pushing (FPoP) left/right and the numeric keypad to use it to launch unsuspecting wandering nommables into the air. Nommables colliding with Unnommable Flying Oddities will damage them and push them back a smidge. Fight against the invasion, and keep them from landing!

Programmed in MonoGame C# (ported from a game I made for a game jam to teach myself how to program in Flash many years ago). Currently only available for Windows.

NNR.zip is the early version of the game (no controls configuration, sound/music, etc; just title/instruction/story screens, pre-level info screen, and the game).

NNRwMusic.zip is a newer version, with controls configuration (keyboard only), options (currently only sound/music volume), and music (no sound effects as of yet, apart from a "victory" sound when you pass a level).

NNRv0_8.zip is the newest version with in-game mute toggle control, mouse control options, plus two new enemies: the Evader and Corruptor. The Evader tries to avoid the FPoP and can cloak itself, and the Corruptor can abduct animals and turn them into bombs that can freeze other animals or the FPoP. I'm calling this version 0.8, since apart from adding sound effects, I think I am close to done with it... at least for now.

NNR1_0.zip is the "final" version (at least for the foreseeable future) with sound effects and a few things cleaned up. If/when I come back to it (apart from any bug fixes that might be brought to my attention), I will probably add achievements.

Final version (at least for now) uploaded.


Everything should be functioning properly, but if you find any bugs, please let me know in the comments. Also, any comments on the game are appreciated. Thank you.

I know, I know: I wasn't going to be adding any more enemies and such -- but of course I did, anyway. Two new UFO types in the newest version: the Evader and the Corruptor. Caused myself a bunch of problems, since the game was built around the super-simple behaviour of the original UFOs, and then I went and moved away from that, but I think I got them sorted...? 

Anyway, I also added an in-game mute toggle, mouse control options, and a few difficulty settings (just animal, FPoP, and UFO speed adjustments).

Still need to add sound effects*, and probably some difficulty settings -- I'm not sure if I'm really bad at this game or it is too hard.

The music is really just random stuff I had made that I stuffed in there...

The game itself is fairly simple, and I don't think I'll be adding much to it as far as that goes.

Please leave any bugs you find in the comments. Thank you.


*Finding good, relevant animal sound effects is a PitA, so... we'll see how that goes.
