There isn't much of a &quot;challenge&quot; however. Also, some parts of the level design seem unfair, as I couldn't see if I was jumping into a void or towards a platform."},{"author_name":"daymare","author_uid":"42474","time":"Aug 26, 2014 @ 5:28am","epoch":1409030580,"text":"Good for a first submission.

The jump sound effect is a bit harsh.\r<br\/>\r<br\/>Some more varied background art would have really spiced things up (just add the palm trees already!), and Different themes on the levels would have felt more &quot;Connected Worlds&quot;, even if it's mostly a palette swap. Good art though!\r<br\/>\r<br\/>Nitpicking: I would have liked if collecting the dark orbs had a bit more reach."},{"author_name":"commodoreKid","author_uid":"39580","time":"Aug 26, 2014 @ 8:38pm","epoch":1409085180,"text":"I actually liked it since it's a simple platformer with acceptable graphics. Here is some feedback;\r<br\/>- Jumping sound is quite annoying and the music is not the best.\r<br\/>- You can jump also when you touch the bottom of tiles.\r<br\/>- After landing the walking animation does not kick in."},{"author_name":"AtomicVikings","author_uid":"25123","time":"Aug 28, 2014 @ 12:25am","epoch":1409185200,"text":"Great job on your first Ludum Dare game! A chicken collects dark matter while scientists of today are still trying to understand what it is and what it does. Makes you question your dinner, doesn't it?

Platforming was a bit punishing at points, but not really (since free respawns).

Collision mask probably too big on chicken.  Wasn't sure about the music at first, but it grew on me quite a bit while playing.  First level was probably a bit too challenging, but great job all in all."},{"author_name":"IamAcoconut","author_uid":"25337","time":"Sep 15, 2014 @ 2:36am","epoch":1410748260,"text":"I liked your game!

It was written using processing and the platforming engine was written by me during the competition. I drew all the graphics using paint.NET, the soundeffects were made with Bfxr, and finally the music is from www.nosoapradio.us. Please try to ignore some of the bugs.
