Could not get this game running, screenshot looks pretty nice. The game is "zipped" in a 7z library which is a wierd move since not everyone uses 7z. The game does not work when unpacked. Seems to rely on a different version of Java than the one I have installed or something like that.
Quite good, I like the Mario kinda theme going on. The one thing I found really annoying was Dying, I could find a way to restart the level.
Pretty nice game. Music would've been nice, though!

thanks, I recompile it with java 1.5 and repacked in zip
ohh, I forgot add restart option
and I haven't enouth time to add sounds and music
I will do it next time))
is it allow to add some options (like restart) now?
The game was pretty fun. I played through twice to try with different abilities.
Definitely needs a restart function. Was fun though. :)
Liked the setting as well.
I liked the three unique elements, give it some depth. Fun factor was good since I have a lace in my heart for Mario-esque platformers. The download was quick and small :) Thanks!
Beat, it but not sure what collecting the different colors did, was I supposed just collect one color?
Congrats on making your first game! Much better than the first game I ever made!
Two small complaints: Lack of audio and no restart feature (as far as I can tell).
Besides that, spot-on marioesque platforming. Exactly the way it's supposed to be.

year, only one "way")
Congratulation for your first game ! Platformer is not the easier way to start in my opinion but you dit it very well. The idea of 3 colors power is good, I tried 2x of them but had problem to last long with red. The restart problem dissuade me to take more than 4 times. I also had to change my keyboard config ( -> english because of the wasd ) each time.

arrows work too)
I liked the feel of the jump.
I collected some things and nothing seemed to happen. And there was no sound for me? And I died and stayed dead...?
So, a few problems, but the core controls were nice!
I liked the concept, and each of the three abilities were pretty well balanced imo. I had fun trying out all 3. I only wish there was more than one level, or the level was much longer. Pretty fun though!
If that's your first game, you got off to a pretty good start :-) I'd play it more if you wouldn't have to start all over again every time you die. Sone simple sfxr sounds may have been nice (it takes like 15 min to generate some basic game sounds).
start.bat didn't work, but it ran straight from the .jar file.
Getting the feel for platformer controls right is hard even for people who are experienced in making games. This is actually very good, especially for your first effort!
There seemed to be some collision issues though, especially with spikes. I kept dying even when my character clearly landed safely on the ground.
I like the game but the spikes get me! good way to lower frustration is give the player some le-way! make it rather than when it barely touches you to have be half-way on it!
Definitely a great achievement for your first game! I found this very difficult, especially without a restart button.
I hope you make more games!
Whenever I got killed, the player character got stuck, the rest of the world kept going on, I was not able to restart the game...
First game? Very good! It played good, but without restart frustrating. Some sound would also make it a lot more playable.
