I was playing for only a minute and it quit/possibly crashed.

Final version is now up!

I don't mean to be mean, but I personally didn't like this one. Its very easy to glitch out the hero, and if you don't, then its extremely hard to win. Either way though, all that the strategy boils down to is to mash the x button. The graphics are pretty sub-par, but not to the point where the game is impossible to play, and the music is pretty bad. All in all, I think you should start over. There's not really much with potential here IMHO.

I kinda see what you were going for but this game really needs some polish. Basic graphics are fine but everything is grey and so is the floor.

It's a nice idea, but too easy to glitch out and beat. The graphics were okay, but a little too bland. If you fixed those two things it would be awesome!

Nom nom nom I win.

It seems like the aim of this game is to get the hero stuck so you can kill him, otherwise his health is too much and he just wastes you.

It feels kinda like the core gameplay element is based on a bug.

Almost impossible to kill that black'n'white kenny! What I didn't like was the music which was a bit disturbing and tiles could be less bland. Fight could involve some more tactical fight so it doesn't seem like rage-hitting the X. Well, good job on completing the Ludum Dare :)

Hero has way way way too much health and I lost on five consecutive playthroughs. Needs a lot of polish.

See the updated descriptions for details, but we reduced the hero's health to scale with the number of levels we were able to finish. Should be winnable now. :-)

I liked the villain graphic but the sound was quite grating. I agree that the main game aspect is kind of a bug. Perhaps you should polish it up a bit.

There seemed to be something weird with the transfers, like I'd go through a "door" and reappear in the centre of a room. And that guy was unrelenting!

So... an interesting concept, yes, but you've given the player far too much of a feeling of being underpowered. The graphics and the music leave a bit to be desired, especially considering this was a Jam. I encountered your bug the first time and won, but it seems a little too unpredictable whether or not you're gonna win without the bug. You should also try static-linking your libraries so there isn't so much junk in the folder for your game. Did you use Allegro, by chance? If you started from scratch with Allegro, I can actually totally understand how this went awry. It's relatively bugless, though, and I think it's an OK job, keep learning and keep up the good work!

Why not progressing to work? Just make a post-compo version with additional content and the fixed bugs :)

How did you come up with 42 mbs for such a simple game?

It's a nice idea but it is unfortunately a bit glitched at the moment. Gameplay was pretty unique for the while I was able to play, before it crashed sadly :(.
