I'm stuck in the room right after the lava maze. Looks like there should be a button? Please help, I must finish and find out where I really am! I did find a kitty though, so all is not lost.

Congrats, your game has now been modded. :P I downloaded your source and removed that pesky door. Glad I did. The last puzzle was epic and the ending was entertaining.

xD Silly me, not finishing the game properly. A friend of mine told me about that door and I've updated it, so it should be alright now.
Thank you for enjoying it ^^

Nice game, I liked it, but making you restart from the very beginning is really annoying when you get further into the game, especially when there are puzzles you have to execute fast next to lava :O

Nice graphics, music and gamplay. I also love the mood and gameboy-like feel. Good work!

Love the mood and the music. I experience occasional stuttering, but it's not a big deal. Great job overall!

Mood is great. When I clicked the Web link to go to the static void site, it was not immediately apparent where to click next to play (Applet or Jar).

I like the graphics. Sticking with that very limited color palette is a nice touch. Collision detection with the lava is pretty brutal. It's hard to tell if you will hit it or not.

Awesome game, I love the challenge in the tests! Could use some checkpoints though.

Web version doesn't load for me. I use chromium in linux.

@the8donut: Good to know. I did not experience this on my computer.

@cacciatc: Thanks for letting me know. I've updated the link directly to the applet version.

@cadin: Yea, the hitbox is a tad annoying when it comes to the lava. I tried to make it even smaller, but just one pixel smaller on each side and it looked awkward when getting close to the walls.

@RHY3756547: Trust me, I wanted checkpoints to, but I were so short on time D:

@jeffreybiles: I'd wish to help, but I don't know anything about Linux.

The atmosphere is great! I believe you could make this into a great game with just a bit more work.

Nice moody entry. Everything was well put together. Starting from the beginning when dieing was a bit too punishing I think.

Hi eShredder!

First of all congratulations! I like so much the way that your game looks, five stars to the graphics undoubtedly. The music creates a good atmosphere but after.
A good one that I put on the "play later list" (twenty days later, there are lots of games to test and vote as you will understand)!

Good work!

Awesome mood and ambience on this one! The controls are tight, a nice perk when you're running around lava! :) Having to restart from the very beginning after getting to the puzzles is a little unforgiving, though, as it's already been pointed out.
Congratulations!

As some people here, a bit frustrating to go back at the very beginning when you lose but still a solid entry, with a great graphic style and mood !

Pretty good! Played around with the source too, broke it when I tried to make a brown path all the way to the end! Didn't have time to figure out the entire code :P

I loved this game, but it needs some checkpoints.
