In terms of gameplay, it's a solid platformer, but there is nothing special about it. But it's good that you managed to polish your game."},{"author_name":"geepit","author_uid":"7990","time":"May 8, 2013 @ 7:06pm","epoch":1368039660,"text":"Cool style, nice game"},{"author_name":"foyosoft","author_uid":"23062","time":"May 11, 2013 @ 6:25pm","epoch":1368296400,"text":"Brilliant! Great game. Loved the graphics and game play. Simple controls meant that any dying was the player's fault and not the game.

I found some little collision bugs (I know that it's very annoying to write collision code. Waterfall (?) level was challenging. For future try to implement jump delay after being on ground tile.

The level with the 4 bats was a bit tricky - the collision also resolves in a weird way when you jump into the top tile.

The graphical style worked very well, and the simple audio also fit perfectly. The levels were pretty well designed with a good amount of variety. If you keep working on it, it would be worth spending some time on the edge mechanics for jumping and landing on platforms, because it was sometimes too mushy and sometimes too touchy. Great job all in all, though."},{"author_name":"GeorgeBroussard","author_uid":"8631","time":"May 20, 2013 @ 10:50pm","epoch":1369089900,"text":"Enjoyed the hell out of this.
