Numerous UK bank holidays in quick succession caught me off guard last week, and I missed this silly little thing. Spike - A Love Story is utterly ridiculous, and therefore something that I admire. You are a spike trap, and you've fallen in love with a ginger-haired adventurer.

Of course, being a spike trap, you don't really have a way to express your love, other than crushing him repeatedly. Spike is a one button game, requiring you press the space bar to slam down on top of your potential love - or crush your crush, you could say. He doesn't simply walk through, however, and you'll need to watch carefully and keep your wits about you, otherwise you'll end up getting fired.

Brings a tear to my eye, this one. Check out Spike - A Love Story on Newgrounds.
