There was a flash (as in .swf file format) mini platformer game on one of those flash game sites where you played as a round cyclopus (Mike-Wazowski-esque) creature and had to rip NPCs' eyes in order to "view the world from their perspective" and get to the next level (like there could be an obstacle in 1 view and then you had to switch to another view and it wasn't there)
