I found myself doing the same area over and over again due to how, as others put it, &quot;pixel perfect&quot; it was. (It describes it well, to be honest.)

That damn blue area though... :P Great work!"},{"author_name":"euwaku","author_uid":"23249","time":"May 5, 2013 @ 8:59am","epoch":1367744040,"text":"Cool concept, gameplay kind of tight and discouraging when losing endlessly.

Hit boxes were a bit dodgy - It might even be an idea to forgive the player a pixel or two so that there's more &quot;phew I got through&quot; going on, than &quot;bloody unforgiving game&quot;. Every time you step forward it carries on for a split second. which means if you're trying to line yourself up in that thin little chimney, it's not really in your power to control whether the player steps too far or not, unless you step back, and forwards, and back, and forwards, and again and again until you think you might be far away enough to not hit the wall when you step forwards again - and if you go too far or not far enough after that it's unbelievably frustrating because you know you've got to go through the whole process again. I like  your idea about the colour zones doing different things. Just needs sharper controls."},{"author_name":"Oye Beto","author_uid":"7933","time":"May 5, 2013 @ 10:00pm","epoch":1367790900,"text":"- I have to slide in a small orange space.
