Destructible environment is a nice touch.\r\r\rBuggy thing: When i jump and hit ceiling i stick to this instead of falling down.

It came off to me just as a platformer. \r\rAnd as a platformer, the controls were tough to use. IT seems that when you hit a wall it turns off your movement. so that mean that if i'm holding left into a wall, then press jump, my character wont move to the left when it's above the wall. That's not how platformers work. Also, it's hard to turn around for a similar reason. when the game worked, it felt good to jump over platforms and such, though. the first part before the pits in the "hell" level felt really nice to jump through.\r\rOVerall, the game seemed ok. I don't understand what the unconventional weapon is, but maybe i'm just thick-headed."},{"author_name":"Pixel Heart","author_uid":"51121","time":"Apr 21, 2015 @ 5:28pm","epoch":1429636980,"text":"I can't play it, sadly...
