Game summary
A Flipping Good Time is a fast-paced free-flowing 2D platformer. Flip and fly through an expansive underground world using the fluid nature of gravity to avoid the hazardous terrain. With challenging obstacles, exhilarating mine cart rides, an immersive environment, rewarding collectibles, and entertaining levels with unlockable bonus levels, A Flipping Good Time is just that: a flipping good time.
The game is a student project from DigiPen Institute of Technology developed by Mike's Plumbing and Tile: Media Arts Division. The team is composed of three programmers, two game designers, one full time artist, and one musician. We developed the game over two semesters for our sophomore project class, and was recognized by PAX10 and The Extra Credits Innovation Awards.
First released: May 2011
Play A Flipping Good Time on Mac with Parallels (virtualized)
The easiest way to play A Flipping Good Time on a Mac is through Parallels, which allows you to virtualize a Windows machine on Macs. The setup is very easy and it works for Apple Silicon Macs as well as for older Intel-based Macs.
Parallels supports the latest version of DirectX and OpenGL, allowing you to play the latest PC games on any Mac. The latest version of DirectX is up to 20% faster.
Our favorite feature of Parallels Desktop is that when you turn off your virtual machine, all the unused disk space gets returned to your main OS, thus minimizing resource waste (which used to be a problem with virtualization).
