Great Game!

Nice game, but the controls are a bit lagged?
Congrats! :)

@everblind Which browser/OS?

Well done! There is a very nice dose of challenge, but I had to give up after failing like 20 times at the yellow level with lots of spikes.
I may have been motivated to continue if there was an interesting story, but I am probably too clumsy to get through the level even if I kept going..
The jumps remind me a lot of jetpack games, and it might be nice if the robot had jetpacks on. The precision and judging was just too difficult for me.

@theholychicken That was the last level!

OH! haha!

Fun game, I enjoyed it.
Something is a little frustrating with the controls, though. Maybe deceleration is too slow? Almost felt laggy.

Nice :)

Awesome game. Graphics, sounds and music are quite impresive. The difficulty is addictive. Works great in chrome (ubuntu). Nice work.

Great game! Everything's just right & balanced :)

I thought the controls were smooth and the strongest part of the game. Fucking hell you went all-out with the difficulty on the last level, I think I died a hundred times and I spilled at least as many expletives.

Cute little twitch platformer. It was kind of thrilling even. I thought the challenge level was just right. I also died about 50 times on the last level.

Very fun & challenging! It ran good in Chrome.

A very good game with a nice clean graphical style. The music is a bit repetitive, and I was pleased to see a mute button. The game works well, but suffers from performance issues which made it rather more difficult than it should have been. The physics feel a little weird to me (no horizontal deceleration from air friction, too fast horizontal acceleration when in the air), and I fell out of the world a couple of times.

Quite fun game, but I personally didn't like 'hold space to jump loger'. The character might fly for some time near the ceiling.

That was a lot of fun! The core mechanic worked well, and the levels were just the right length. Got hooked on it, and spent a good five minutes screaming at the last level. :D

I have two suggestions for improvements. The death animation is a bit on the long side for a game where you die a lot. In a similar vein, I wanted a suicide button for when you know it's hopeless.

On a personal level, it was fun to see how we handled the same concept so differently. I enjoyed the fast gameplay in yours a lot! Great job! :D

Not bad, difficulty spikes pretty hard

jimanzium 2013-08-28 16:47

Very fluid! Jumping was a little wooden though

almightyzentaco 2013-08-28 16:48

Lovely little game. I liked the sharp graphic style.

william_edwards 2013-08-29 07:52

Thanks for level restart! Loved the graphics and the zooming on enter-exit. Boy can you jump far!

tijmentio 2013-08-30 15:07

Nice game! Although the controls felt really floaty.

photon 2013-08-31 21:45

Um, for some reason, every time I tried to play the game the robot just fell through the floor.

Very fast platformer! Didn't know that html5 could make that with vector graphics :) I enjoyed mastering the controls, and the in-game instructions.
