Sunday Timewaster: Marshmallow
5:30AM Maggie Greene | This wonderfully adorable (and kind of weird) game is pretty straight forward — guide the marshmallow around a variety of objects just waiting to take a bite out of your head and send you hurtling towards the ground so you can land with a ’splat.’ It’s cute. It’s not terribly taxing. The soundtrack is … well, something (soothing? Weird? Vaguely Katamari-esque?

Boss battles every 10 levels, power ups, and trying not to get hit with your own bullets (so watch out for that trigger finger) — add in some cute alien enemies, and you’ve got the recipe for how I wasted a good chunk of my Sunday morning.
