Info about Bouncing Body Bits:

Official game description:
In this sequel to Falling Face Fragments, you play as a newly assembled face on a exciting journey through a mysterious maze of rooms where you must gain and lose limbs as necessary to fit through specific shaped doors, solve puzzles, and most importantly, figure out which combination of limbs will give your face the perfect body.
In this 2D puzzle-platform game, you start off as just a head and torso, all you can do is slide along the floor and jump. When you see an arm or a leg bouncing around, simply collide with it and it will magically become yours! The more pairs of legs you have, the faster you can run. You can jump in midair for each pair of flapping arms you have, and having arms also allows you to pick up items. But having too many arms or legs can cause you problems, they could render you too tall or wide to fit into smaller spaces; not to worry, just head to a clinic to get your limbs lopped off!
Can you make it all the way through the labyrinth and uncover which limb combination is the best of all?
