One of the best entries I've seen so far!
So simple, yet so addictive. I really liked this entry, and the water effects, while seemingly decorative, added a great lot of immersion!
The motion of the 'water' looked great, and the overall feel was nice
I really like the gameplay element, its quite unique. I would have like to seen something in the background however...
Huh, I actually really like that.
The Good - Water pseudo-physics where awesome. Tight controls, good music, appropriate sound fx. Death sound was charming.
The Bad - nothing really. Could have used more levels, and maybe an encouragement for speedruns or jumping really high or something, just so it wasnt jump left, okay, wait a second for the water to chill out, jump left again. Whats that your done? Jump right. Lather rinse repeat.
The Ugly - programmer art. It was actually kind of charming tho, so Im not scoring you down for it.
That's quite interesting. My main criticism is that it takes too long to ramp up and change things.
Now that is something. You captured a good game right there. Controls are precise, the effect is interesting.
And the lava blobs at level 5 came quite as a surprise.
Rock solid entry!
I'm liking this one :) Personally I'd like it if the lava started coming earlier
Great one! Reminded me of some of the gameplay in N+, but very creative use of the theme and a nice smooth implementation. It gets old faster than it gets hard, but there are lots of things you could add to improve that.
Hi-score 7300
I was really nonplussed when it started, but I waited patiently until Level 5, as you said. Things really did get interesting. I made it until 12 before being thrown catastrophically into the ocean. Quite a lot of fun here.
The physics aren't bad, and the sparse graphics don't detract. I love the death sound.
Loved the graphics, found that there wasn't much to do, but i'm sure what was done was hard enough to do in 48 hours, nice little game.
LOVED THE MUSIC. So funky.
Pressing UP makes thins VEDDY INTERESTING.
