Destroy The Love by Madsj
The game is about breaking hearts and collecting energy, you can use energy to cast a shockwave or jump if you are out of jumps.
If you reach 8 energy, you get a black heart and if you reach 8 energy 3 times you will advance to the next stage.
There are 3 stages in the game.
Controls:
Left and right arrow key = Left and right
Space = Jump
X = shockwave
S = Bodyslam
R = Restart (When dead)
F5 = Restart
The Blue HUD is your jumps, the white is energy and the black hearts is your life.

Great job!
It's all about collecting hearts, then the hearts turn into enemies, but you need them to advance and even to kill those same buggers, and then you jump a few too many times and you're out. Brilliant!
It is exactly the kind of quick thinking reaction driven balancing act that I like. The third level is a killer though. Hot damn!
A few non gameplay related issues:
- The graphics are crude. Many people only look at the icon and screenshots when deciding whether to play or not (even more so in a real marketplace).
- No web build. That's the second hurdle for many potentials players.
- 170 megs is way too much for such a simple game. Did you use uncompressed audio? I'm genuinely curious. Surely it's not just Gamemaker being daft.
Make as good a game next time, while pay attention to these technical issues and you'll have solid gold in your hands.
