And the Quest for Cupcakes

You're a knight who has to go and collect cupcakes on his ceaselessly bouncing bird. It's an arcade-like platforming experience with arcade-like difficulty.

Now, this was already a complete game (more or less). It was made for Radnen's just-for-fun retro game competition in 2010. An improved alpha version was also developed up until 2012.
