Animation and arrow controls seem really fluid.
Needs to disable typeahead find for the keypresses to work. Every time I press 'A' to jump, the find-in-page box captures all further keystrokes. (Firefox 8.0.1, but any browser w/typeahead, really)
In general, this means returning false from your key handler functions. If you're using a framework, it probably has a disableTypeAheadFind() method of some sort.
I liked the final weight :P
I *almost* stopped at the ostensible ending screen.
Fun little game - I played through to the end. The first time I played, something strange happened when I interacted with the switch - I ended up in another room, stuck at the top unable to move.
@mildmojo, javascript performed better than I had expected, so I was surprised about the fps the game could run at.
I've looked into type-ahead and found it in firefox, but there doesn't seem to be a fix for me to do (return false or true doesn't work and any functions I search for online also will not work). There do seem to be other people suffering from this problem too. I guess the web isn't yet fully supporting games yet ;).
@increpare, the 'prizes' are only for the explorers among us...
@ladron, yes, the physics aren't the best. I guess you fell through the room to another non-existing one. I'll see whether I can reproduce it.
The controls are a little...spastic, but overall I found this this to be quite playable and enjoyable. The puzzles were pretty well designed, and even though it was short, I felt it was a good experience. Nice ending too :)
