I managed to get myself stuck between some tiles once or twice. The default controls, made no sense to me, but I kinda forgot, until after I beat the game that you could change them :P I liked the idea, and your levels were interesting.

Since you can't see them until you go up, most people will die the first time through.  For a puzzle game, where you have already solved the puzzle this is very frustrating.  You would be better off if you did one of the following:\r<br\/>- Remove the spikes,\r<br\/>- Make the spikes visible, or\r<br\/>- Train the player to expect spikes by placing the same blind spike traps early in the level so the player can detect the pattern.  If you did that, the player is more likely to blame themselves for failing the level then on the game for the cheap shot."},{"author_name":"guardiancs","author_uid":"21404","time":"Aug 31, 2013 @ 4:49pm","epoch":1377967440,"text":"Hey dalbinblue, I felt the same way when i tried the map , but the problem was time :p .
