So says the description of Aether. Aether is a video game designed by Creator/EdmundMcMillen and Tyler Glaiel and published by Website/ArmorGames. Released on September 3, 2008, it can be played for free online or downloaded for offline play. Players control a HeroicMime boy and an octopus-squid-alien-EldritchAbomination-thingy that the boy encounters on his travels, solving puzzles and the friendly (and not-so-friendly) inhabitants of different planets to restore them from monochrome to color. The two travel through space by swinging on clouds and asteroids with the monster's huge tongue.

Weird, right? But surprisingly fun.
