Friday Timewaster

One of 32 games selected as finalists at IndieCade.  For your consumption and procrastination, I give you Fractal (http://www.playfractal.com/).  A simple puzzle game with a free demo that is just about the perfect length for a workday diversion.
Not surprisingly, Everyday The Same Dream was also selected as a finalist (featured as a time waster back in [...]

It’s a little late, but I guess you can use this on Monday to ease into a productive week…
