@foxter888 I really don't know if you're being sarcastic or not. If you're being sarcastic, my answer is

Very.

If you aren't being sarcastic, then

How is it intense?

Some plateforms are very hard :-/

AAAHHHH! Super hard platforming. I actually enjoyed some of the graphics and I wanted to keep going to see what the messages said, but the platforming was difficult and repetitive.

Very simple game, but it fits the theme... It's just too short. The pixelating effect looks cool.

@Yakka @domrein Well, they were meant to be hard but passable. And about that repetition? Well, now I know what to look out for next time.

I like how the character movement and music feel in sync.

The Effects are really cool.
I also liked the difficulty. Died just twice, so that was acceptable. Some more messages would have been great but I do know that time is short in LD ; )

great game, i really love it. while i played I thought about the game "flower" with the simple objective of flying and relax. the idea was good and the sound too...

The music is a bit too minimalistic for my likings. I'm also having quite some issues with controls: when switching Tabs (in IE10) sometimes I'm no longer able to control the character, plus some gaps seem to require perfect timing (starting at the third or fourth Screen below that arrow thingy). Overall, I like the idea, but it's - as mentioned above - almost a bit too minimalistic.

Found this just a little too generic - I think stronger level design might have helped bring the simplicity to the forefront.

@ataxkt yep, this was my first *finished* game, so good level design isn't my strong suite.

Wooowoowoo, very hard platforming!
The character movements aren't easy and the game lag a bit on my computer.
The pixel transition at the beginning is a very cool effect. :)

Pretty good game. Though the repetitive music is pretty annoying. Good entry though :)

I like the character design. Music is not bad at first, but gets annoying quite quickly.

Some nice solid platform physics. I enjoyed playing it.

Nice mood. Controls felt pretty good. Layout of the platforms felt a bit random.

Good plateformer. The difficulty curve was a bit strange.
The sweet music set a good mood.
