Good fun :)

Only thing I found was that the by best tactic is to sit on the 1st platform and just shoot side to side. There didn't seem to be much need for movement. I'm not sure, but I think it would be better if you made your character move a bit faster, reduced the health of the bombs so they take fewer shots to kill and adjust the level slightly to force the player to move around more.

101 seconds I think. Also freezes don't seem to reset when you restart.

Cute character design (particularly the ice-cube hero). Fluid character movement. Good work.

I lasted just under 129 seconds by camping in the middle of the first floor. I could have done more if I'd remembered about freezes!

Lovely graphics! But gameplay is bit complicated
