Popular mobile video game Cut the Rope is coming to the Web by way of Internet Explorer 9.
Microsoft announced during its keynote at the 2011 Consumer Electronics Show on Monday night that a desktop HTML5 version of the game is now available for free through Internet Explorer 9, thanks to a partnership with PixelLab and ZeptoLab, the makers of the game.
The physics-based puzzle video game was developed in 2010 by Russian developers and quickly became a global sensation. The object of each level is to maneuver a piece of candy into the mouth of a green cartoon monster called “Om Nom”. The candy hangs by one or several of the titular ropes, which the player can cut with a swipe of their finger, and can also be manipulated through other objects including bellows and floating bubbles. Each level pack introduces new objects.
“We developed a set of new levels for Internet Explorer users,” said Semyon Vionov, creative director at ZeptoLab, via a video featured on the game’s site. “There are unique levels that aren’t found in any other of our games.”
The latest version features 25 levels to play, including seven that can be unlocked by pinning the site to the browser’s taskbar. The move is part of an effort to help promote Internet Explorer 9 and attract more visitors to the browser. The game can also be played on any HTML5-compatible browser.
The game is now available at cuttherope.ie.
