Midnight Inertia by Michcioperz
The goal is to hit the terrain as fast as possible, and as often as possible. You have 30 seconds to earn your score. Your score is a sum of speeds you had while hitting the terrain, but it won't be counted if the speed was too low. You won't see your score until the game ends. Only hint is the time written in hex numbers in the upper left corner and a vector showing your velocity.
Use [Space] and [LShift] to change your altitude, [Q] to quickly get your velocity to zero, [Tab] to use the Throwback(tm) feature. Don't care about [W][A][S][D], unless you find a way to use them creatively.
The game works better at lower framerate, as Bullet physics run with unchangeabe number of 60 updates per seconds.
If you needed to see someone playing this, watch http://youtu.be/Dvbl_Wj1tWo?a featuring me. Try not to focus on how awful my voice is.
Meanwhile, if this game is too ununderstandable for you, try Puzzlem00n's # game at http://www.ludumdare.com/compo/ludum-dare-26/?action=preview&uid=11003

All I can do is rise up into the air until the game ends.
Graphics are beautiful though.
nice trip
By bouncing I meant just crashing with the terrain :)
The graphics are pretty original, to say the least. Very trippy color scheme on there.
