Hey, I just wanted to add that I created this game with cocos2d javascript and it's done totally without flash and totally with html5 only!
I can't figure out how to edit this. So here's that whole thing zipped in case I should rename the github project: http://bayfiles.com/file/8kCR/De44qO/iblic_-_Ive_been_looking_for_ice_cream.zip
There will be a timelapse soon, once I filtered out all the private stuff I recorded by accident (like bayimg delete links).
Hahaha, I had a lot of fun jumping around and getting stuck in the orbit. Cool game!

I couldn't jump :/
Couldn't even move in the second level... had fun on the first level running around the world so fast I was flying into space without even pressing jump.

Hi, thanks for the feedback!
When you report bugs can you please tell me what browser you are using?
I strongly recommend playing it in chrome/chromeium or at least in the latest Firefox.
I think this will solve the most problems.
@7Soul Probably not your problem, but if you press W only shortly you will not jump really high, you have keep it pressed to jump a more noticeable distance.
@bastiandantilus why couldn't you move? Did the game run to slow or did just nothing happen when you pressed a key? Maybe it helps to click the canvas element.
If that doesn't help just reload the page, the game will remember your progress and load the last level you played.
I tested the game in Chromium 18 and Firefox 11 on Linux. It runs smoothly in Chromium and a little bit laggy in Firefox, but I heard that Firefox is faster on Windows due to hardware acceleration.
Nice gravity physics, I enjoyed getting the guy to orbit the tiny world.
I liked the odd sense of humour to this one, particularly the international cat. The solution to that last level took some figuring out as well, although maybe that was just me being slow...

This is the most random thing i have ever played.
Icecream, photoshop, aliens... what?
It kept getting stuck and not letting me walk/jump :( (both Firefox and Chrome)

@ExciteMike that's really weird, I never experienced something like that. On which map does it happen? Does pressing F5 resolve the error? Does it happen after you died on the spikes, because I'm freezing the controls there.
When you get stuck again can you please right-click in Chrome, click inspect element and select the scripts tab. If there's a red error symbol in the right bottom corner can you click on it an report me the error message, line and stack trace (you get the stack trace by clicking on the triangle next to the error message). This could really help me to solve the bug.

Enjoyed the first level, but unfortunately couldn't jump on the second. I'm in Chrome 18.0.1025 (OSX) Also it slowed WAY down if I touched the crate on the second level.
Ran okay at first, but then started to chug too badly to play. I would like to try this one, so I hope you can fix it. :-)

I found an error, the class Ironbar was named "Crate" due to copy pasta. Maybe that fixes the Crate related bug. Sadly I couldn't reproduce any of these. Now there's also a link to a build of the unchanged 48 version.

I also tested it on Windows Google-Chrome 18.0.1025 and can't reproduce any of the described bugs :( everything worked fine on both versions (fixed and 48).
On Wednesday I'll get access to an OSX PC and will test it there.

I can now confirm that the game horrebly slows down in Google-Chrome 18 on MAC, but it runs nice in Firefox 12 and the newest Firefox beta (I believe it's 14). Old Firefox versions like 3.6 don't even run it so please upgrade your browser.
I've got no idea why it's slowing down in chrome on mac it's probably a bug in cocos2d-javascript or box2d.js and I've got no time to debug libraries atm.
Firefox 12 and higher should work everywhere.

Sorry man, even the fixed version was really buggy. I tried three different browsers, but it didn't help. In IE, the box was inside the planet on level 2, and on the others I couldnt move on the second level. =/

Did you try it in Firefox 12 (or higher)? I didn't even expect that it displays anything in IE. I tested it in
Firefox 12 on Windows / MAC / Linux - all worked fine
Chromeium 18 on Linux - worked fine
Google Chrome 18 on Windows worked fine
Please play it in one of these browsers and report back. I can't find any of the described bugs in these. That's driving me mad. Applebutter.

Unfortunately I'm only rating the competition versions right now -- I like the spirit of this game but I'll have to play the fixed version later.
As it stands, I couldn't jump after dying for the first time.
Good physics from what I could tell. The upside down ice cream sign made me laugh.

Had fun playing it but the gravity felt a bit off for me. Loved your description ;)

Definitely buggy! Haha, but it was fun spinning out of control.

Couldn't move on Chrome on windows.
