@seagaia: now it should work. I will be grateful if you test it again and tell if issue still exists.

I started playing, it went fine for the first minute then the game crashed and the .exe was ... gone. I had time to read the ingame instructions though, the concept looks fun :D

@Njord could you test it now? I have enabled console so if it craches you should see a traceback that would help fixing a bug.

The little command prompt thing comes up, does some stuff then disappears... Then nothing else launches? If you can fix it that'd be great, since I've been looking forward to playing this! (Windows)

Guys, I have fixed last issue (I hope it's a last one) and uploaded new windows build. Hope it works now. Sorry for that. Now I know that next time I have to test it on more machines before releasing.

Interesting take on the theme, but it was too hard hitting those wrong letters though...

Clever way to twist the theme, interesting gameplay but very challenging to hit the correct block at the correct time. Good work!

The text scrolls by way too fast, it's near impossible to read and correct anything. Good idea though, even if Mario is a prick. Awesome interpretation of the theme :D

Very interesting gameplay, and classical graphics ;)

Interesting concept, but it goes a bit too fast for me. I'm not a native english speaker, that might be the reason why. Also, I found out we weren't punished for hitting wrong letters, so I just kept jumping and my score increased. This should be easily fixed.

Funny idea, more then proper presentation. The timing on a jump is kinda too hard to figure out to be intuitive, but that may be just me.

I just get a black screen for a second, then it closes :(
No error message, just a program appears to try to start, then fails to do so. Windows version.

It's cool idea. Howewer it's a little hard that texts goes too fast.

@Tifu, If you run it in console and give me a screenshot of traceback (it should be there) I can try to fix this issue.

Didn't work on windows seems to just open and then crash with no error. (also not sure if its a joke but the theme was connected worlds not corrected words)

Does not work on Windows 7. I would run it in the console and give you the output, but I don't know how.

Wont run in Windows 8.1 window just closes.
Opened in admin console, no error message in the console.
Looking forward to playing, will check back and try again later if there is a fix :)

Not working for me on windows 7 either.

Well, this is really hard. Reading AND understanding AND correcting AND timing the jump right is just too much for me.
But it's a really funny game and I like rude mario.

One bug I encountered: The music stopped playing after a while.
Running on Windows 7 64-bit.

Jeez, Mario is extremely rude. Fun game play though, and nice music.

Interesting idea, but couldn't read fast enough to detect the errors before they were out of reach. Also got bored after a few words and just waited until the end without jumping. The "coins" aren't that much of a reward, if you ask me.

Tried to play it but it closes immediately... Couldn't get it to run... Windows version on Windows 7 HP x64.
