Wow, they were both good!
CaveDweller had very nice looking and fast loading text sprite graphics, and a very good puzzle element. The gui could have been better, but I consider that almost trivial to evaluating the value of a game. The level editor is also a nice touch, as it always is with these types of puzzle games :)
Stupid was a very interesting game, and i mean that in a good way :D. I found the humor very funny. Stupid guy can't eat peanuts. And the title screen looked very nice. Unfortunately, the gameplay was a bit lacking, and took a very long time to load... eventually ;)
I voted for CaveDweller, because i believe the platformer aspect was much stronger than that in Stupid.

Yeah for the Stupid-named game, my main issue was that it was too fast so I died everytime, and then I gave up due to the long loading time. I think levels should have been kept loaded even when dying and only reload when changing levels or running game again

Hey all. Thanks for the props Builderboy. I worked hard on the game speed (did you know variables S-Z and theta are a little faster than A-R?). I'm not much into GUIs, as you can see. Also, I forgot to credit Chun-Cheung Yim for the original game idea in the readme (original DOS game called TunnelMan that I played once in the '90s). There is an iPhone/Touch version in review for the app store right now. Of course that version is much cooler.
