I'm a sucker for 2D runners, and this one's pretty good. I like the design of the character and the sword swinging animation looks great. The game controls well enough, but everything feels a little bit delayed. Maybe that's just me. I never got too terribly far because of how you die instantly from hitting a platform. It was pretty difficult to avoid them given how many of them there were. I feel that the platforms should have probably been semi-solid, meaning you can collide with them from the top but not the bottom or sides, and then you could have had another type of static hazard used more sparingly. The game was definitely very punishing, but I had a good time with it regardless.

First: Please split up the seperate platform versions into their own downloads.

There seems to be a huge delay when playing the game which I think stems from using "On Key Up" rather then "On Key Down", and I had some framerate issues.

Thanks for the submission!
