Nice graphics. Mechanics hard to learn, thought...

Wouldn't work for me. It opened, and I could see the menu and start the game fine, but once the game started I couldn't move the character and it was constantly jumping. Not sure why.

@Tokken18 that's strange :/ Which version are you trying to play? The applet or the desktop version? Thank you! :)

Nice colors.

Lack of air movement, flying off edges and collision boxes a tad big makes this kinda tricky to play.

Nice graphics but this game makes my firefox crash :(.

The applet version is not working correctly in some computers, sorry, we are investigating in how to fix that.

Same as what cinnamonmelonpig said: I could open it, but beyond that, I couldn't control anything. If it helps, I tried both the Java 6 & 7 ones, with a Mac, Firefox and Java 7.something.

The controls are a bit weird with no in-flight control, doesn't feel very intuitive. I also think your hitboxes are a bit too large which makes the game unfairly difficult. Your graphics are nice and the idea is there, just a few minor issues unfortunately. Good entry!

Nice work. I liked the color choices and light up platforms. Getting the timing for jumping other shapes was quite tricky.

infinitedog 2013-05-01 20:01

We are investigating the jump bug too!

Great game, difficult!, but i like the puzzle :D

Controls are a bit hard !

Nicely tricky to play. Loved it!

Jumping and moving mechanics made it very hard to control the character. If I just tapped the key when I was on the edge of a ledge, I'd go flying across and then didn't have any control for my landing. With a few tweaks, I could get into this one a lot more.

Nice graphics, interesting mechanic, clearly takes patience!

phocker 2013-05-15 03:16

has potential but the collision boxes are too big -- its too hard to jump over the enemies, er triangles, er circles -- well -- you get it -- nice effort

I like your graphics, I love the "?"/"!" enemy, and... wow, is that a level editor? :D
Gotta respect the time you guys put into this :)

Btw - judging by the art, that's technically a cube.
