I can't play - not a windows user - and haven't rated, but I was drawn to this entry by the graphics you've posted. I hope this gets played. Good luck!

The idea is great, but difficulty makes this nigh unplayable.
Second level was physically impossible for me to complete.
Really good little game, I find it fairly difficult, but I blame that on my reflexes. The art is great and I wish I could get further to see more.
Being a fan of difficult platformers, I liked this game. There were some interesting mechanics in the first 2 stages. All 3 stages I played were pretty fair, at least in my opinion, although you have to have some experience. About 10 minutes into playing the framerate dropped to about 10 so I had to restart. But when I did reach the end of the 3rd stage nothing happened when I touched the egg. http://i.imgur.com/f0qvZ.png
I had fun with what I played though!
I liked the game a lot (at least the first two levels and a half haha) but It's WAY to difficult IMO. I almost gave up in the first level, and for a competition like a LD where most people want to be able to test a whole game in 5 minutes or so, I don't think it's good to make it that difficult. But overall, one of the best games I've played!
I liked the concept, and although it was difficult it almost always felt like it was my fault if I died, not the controls fault, which is hard to do. My only advice would be to decrease the range of the collision of the spike plants, cause quite often I would die from them when I really wasn't even near them. Also i couldn't finished the game, as when i got up to the part where I had legs, something bugged out when I died so the plants were spitting things at twice the normal rate, I could tell cause they were only animating the spit once for every two bullet things. So there was literally not enough time to get over some of the jumps. Also the breath sound got really annoying after a while. But good work man, nicely thought out puzzles put together with some interesting mechanics.
Yup, the game seems fun, but the hitbox is just too large to provide a fun experience, when coupled with the extremely fast movement speed. I die far too often in situations I should survive.
Damn, this is HARD! But I liked it. Idea is great! :D
Way too hard for me thanks to those spiky plants, but I like the graphics, as well as the title (referring to Dragon Age 2?).
