Goddamn it's hard. But it's a great mechanic.

Damn that was hard. I loved the mechanics, but sometime the movements were so unfair. hehe Nice job!

A really clever real-time puzzler... which sadly I only got to play once, and now it's refusing to start again. Quite hard, like stigmawall said.

Fiddly, but in a fun way. I enjoy how clean everything is, like a real tube/metro map.

Very strong mechanic, and I loved how the music helps building up the tension. I'd suggest you to improve the interface, as to make it clear to which train you'll jump to (it seems a little buggy too). Another suggestion: it really needs balancing, after several attempts the most I could deliver was one package. Maybe if the luck wasn't a so weighted factor; there were some times I'd take almost 20 seconds only traversing the correct route.
Overall, excelent game! Really promising!

The ending screen always says I make the same number of points (even when I delivered 3 packages, it always said I get 593). I like the fact it took a little thought to try and figure out what the best strategy would be. Controls were a little hard with my touchpad. I would have enjoyed it more if I just needed to press space to get it to switch. The movement is smooth and the sound is a nice mix of futuristic and elevator music.

The timing on the trains seemed a little haphazard, and I think you could get a lot out of polishing that area, but overall the train hopping mechanic is nice. It was also a little tough to click on the right train sometimes, but it was manageable. Also the graphics are pretty good.

May I ask you provide full dropbox link? db.tt is blocked by my ISP because of silliness of government in my country.

Nice game! The clicking on the trains seemed a bit strange sometimes (sometimes he would switch trains, sometimes not), but the concept is really cool! Thanks for the game!

I feel it's kind of hard and kind of depends on luck. Nevertheless, this game is interesting!
