I figured out you needed to use the mouse, but you may want to write the full control list somewhere.
Really enjoyed the step by step tutorial.
Animation is also splendid.
Tutorials and game design are great.
But moving is always a problem when I play.
Sometimes controls bugged out somehow. For example the character wouldn't go left, until I pressed right first.
Graphics are unique. Dying animation is hilarious. This kind of job is not suited for the faint-hearted. Hope he gets paid well! So nice bit of humor involved and the mood is good.
