I think having checkpoints more often throughout the level (maybe whenever you got some "artifact") would have made it a bit less frustrating, but really, I think this was a really good interpretation of the theme (similar to mine, actually) and I really can't complain. Good job!"},{"author_name":"Dracir","author_uid":"8048","time":"Apr 25, 2012 @ 3:40am","epoch":1335324900,"text":"And I kissed a girl at the end <3. \rFun game :), well done!

I'm really happy you enjoyed it!\r@Robconzzens: We're really sorry! :( Unfortunately, I couldn't find any way to publish Game Maker games on OSx, and Game Maker HTML is kinda out of the question (cuz I'm broke).\r@Fireblend & Dracir: Critizism noted! It's hard to tell how difficult a game is when you're already intimitely familiar with it. I'll make sure to ask others to play-test our entries in the future and adress their complaints. Every bit of feedback helps, so thank you!"},{"author_name":"BlackBulletIV","author_uid":"3915","time":"Apr 26, 2012 @ 10:44am","epoch":1335436740,"text":"A very nice concept with very nice art. I like how you can see the next "world" through the centre of the current one.\r\rBut damn, this was the most frustrating Ludum Dare 23 game yet. This is mostly due to bugs with jumping on slanted surface which constantly sent me down into lethal objects. This bug ruined the gameplay experience for me and forced me to quit on level three. If that were ironed out, then I'm sure it would be quite fun."},{"author_name":"Cake&Code","author_uid":"10976","time":"Apr 27, 2012 @ 2:32am","epoch":1335493620,"text":"That was pretty awesome! I love the rotating world effect you created, it was a bit dizzying as you got closer to the center since the world rotated faster but it wasn't bad enough to keep me from playing. Getting the items to open the walls didn't really make too much sense since it happened instantly and sometimes I didn't immediately know what section had opened up (like that blue forcefield looking thing on the last level). Overall though, felt really good and looked just as awesome."},{"author_name":"Square Particle","author_uid":"12696","time":"Apr 27, 2012 @ 3:43pm","epoch":1335541080,"text":"Great game, very inventive.

I did have some difficulties with the jump registering in some situations (if I was rotating the world, sometimes it would thing the character was falling and they wouldn't jump).
