YOU ARE Super Agent Man. You are sworn to protect the king and his castle from bad guys by being the early warning scout.

Today there is a problem and you must warn the king fast or else!

Left and right arrows to run, space to jump, down arrow to roll, and hold a directional arrow against a wall and hit space to wall jump equal in power to the horizontal momentum you hit the wall with. Keep hitting space to jump higher.

Lose to see the theme connection.

I finished just in time! WOOT.

Very, very fun! The controls were really solid, and the style was great. Good length as well.

pro : The feedbacks are great and i made it just in time
con : jumping is a bit hard to get used to, but i made a great run the second time i played :3

I really like the Graphics and it was fun playing it! Funny thing: the sound of the rolling.

Very fun, now have it open in my other window to wait for the game to fail to see the theme connection!

Woot! 28 seconds to go :) This one was pretty fun, but I don't see a connection to the theme...

Fun to play and a cute twist on the theme. Some of the double jumping was a little off, but overall very satisfying controls. -Tony

@BipolarMike, you have to lose to see the connection.

Well executed and many cute touches!

Tough but not too tough. The wall jumping occasionally drove me mad. But I got through my second try. How does this fit the theme? Still, fun little platformer.

I loved the idea! Very fun and addictive. Cool!

Nice visuals, the wall jumping feels a bit random here and there, took me a while to figure out the down arrow thing too.

I especially liked visualizing the countdown with the troops moving in the background layer, nice touch.

Great game! Really enjoyed playing it :)

No sound... tried Chrome and Firefox... I'm on Linux.

Wall jumping? More like wall humping.

Well done!
The control of wall jump is not so good,
but the fall break move is so cool!
The music is good, too.

I absolutely loved this game :) Rolling after a fall felt very good

Great entry and fun to play. You really captured the feel of an NES game. I like the pep talks Super Agent Man gets when he falls.

sestren 2012-12-28 01:57

Lol, loved the twist ending! The rolling mechanic was a lot of fun.

gungnir 2012-12-29 17:22

Really nailed the NES reference, controls responsive... nicely executed!

csanyk 2012-12-31 23:21

I found the controls to be a bit frustrating... Super Mario would have made it to the king without any problems;0

Pretty fun to play!
