The game genuiely looks and sounds very competent. But what on earth were you thinking with the jumping. The impossibility of jumping while moving forward is extremely frustrating and made me quit way sooner than I would've liked to :)\r<br\/>\r<br\/>I would like to see this project continued and implemented with a less frustrating jumping mechanic."},{"author_name":"Jimun","author_uid":"3403","time":"May 1, 2012 @ 5:39am","epoch":1335850440,"text":"I apologize for the terrible jumping mechanics.

He lived his life in a dark place named Thohkowch. He was a happy little dust bunny - it was a warm home, comfortable and cozy.\r\nOne day he heard a sound... a horrible terrible whirring sound! It made his ears hurt and he could feel the ground shaking as whatever was causing it drew near! \r\nA giant machine of some kind was at his door! It was going to eat him! It drew close then stopped suddenly. It's pilot had moved away, leaving the machine running. This was Tiny's chance.\r\nHe knew that he had to run for it - whatever this sound was didn't make him feel good at all, so he started to hop away...\r\n\r\nLittle did he know where he was heading...\r\n\r\nLittle had he thought the world was outside of Thohkowch...\r\n\r\nLittle hope he had for finding a new home...\r\n\r\nThis little dust bunny would leave home, only to uncover...\r\n\r\nTiny's World\r\n\r\n\r\nInstructions:\r\n\r\nYou may use the Windows File, or Love2D File.\r\nTo run the Love2D file you must have Love2D installed ( http:\/\/love2d.org )\r\nDouble-click the LOVE file to run the game.\r\n\r\nYour goal is to find a nice cozy home to live in. \r\nMake your way through the game by hopping through obstacles.\r\nYou can jump on enemies, or maybe you could find something better...\r\n\r\nKeep an eye out for the Kitten! She is hidden!\r\n\r\nUnknown to Tiny, you may collect dust, and maybe even upgrade yourself in the process!\r\n\r\nControls:\r\n\r\nTo play, use the following keyboard keys.\r\n\r\nSpace - Hop\r\nShift - Sprint \/ Hop faster\r\nLeft + Right - Walk \/ Steer Tiny\r\nUp + Down - Climb lattice \r\n1 - 5 - Store item into inventory \/ Take item from inventory\r\nV - Pick up item \/ Toss item (Toss while moving to throw)\r\nC - Swing weapon\r\n\r\nAdvice:\r\n\r\nSpiders are big, but they're clumsy with their legs. Jumping on them is tough but maybe there's an easier way to best them!\r\nWatch out for water. For a creature made out of dust, it's quite easy for one to fall in and dissolve. Don't fret - you will be sent back to the start of that section\r\nTiny is not a very fit bunny - having lived all of his life in Thohkowch, he tires easily, so be careful!\r\n\r\nCredits:\r\n\r\nCode, Level Design, Graphics, Sound - Jimun\r\nGraphics, Level Design, Sound - ChipCaramel\r\n\r\n\r\nMusic - SynthR - http:\/\/opsound.org\/artist\/synthr\/ (Used under CC BY-SA 2.5)\r\n\r\nSynthR - The Last Prophecy\r\nSynthR - Forest of Sorrow (Orchestrated)<\/p>","title":"Tiny's World"}
