I can't get out of the second level. I have a feeling it's impossible...

gnitlis

Couldn't quite figure out what to do ... but I like the umbrella mechanic, reminds me of the Kirby games :D

brandonman

Not too bad, considering how quickly you got done after your scrapping of the first project!

gadlor

I feel like I'm trapped in psychedelic pixellaphobiland.

wicked

It's sorta like a cavern. With trees :)
There could be a game here, but it needs a bit more.

I think you've got a promising concept here, but the umbrella is never really needed (since there are no long jumps and no falling damage), and the game has only one beatable level (although the other one has some good things going for it, like the secret door - assuming it was that, and not a bug). I'm giving you a decent score in the fun category, mostly because I think it would be fun to play if you added some clever level design and made better use of the game mechanics. The graphics could definitely use a touch-up.

Oh, and I like that you used a drawing program for the level editor.

I enjoyed this much more than I thought I would have. If there were some spikes and deadly obstacles I could enjoy the platforming quite a lot :)

sparky

A quite nice start, but as you said, the game is missing.
Could be neat once the level starts using the umbrella.

entar

I like the "mini-level to accomplish something in the bigger level" mechanic, and the umbrella could be cool. Could develop into something cool.

funkyjive

This is pretty neat. It has potential. Fun to play around with, for all that there isn't a lot to do.

Also, I *know* that the graphics are really simple, but I like them nonetheless. It almost feels like a little kid's drawing or something.

kobel

Nice feel. Too bad it's not a game.

ondrew

Rectangle with an umbrella? I like it!

comtemno

Certainly got potential; but just not deadly enough right now.

garrig12

I like umbrella-gliding!

foggysheep

mmm.. pixelgfx :]. I really like what you're trying to do.. but feels like I'm keep getting stuck.

terry

Quite minimal, but enough to demonstrate that floating around a pixelly world with a big red umbrella could be great.
