Brilliant little game! There's just absolutely no way to finish it without playing it less than a 100 times. I dare you to try!

wolfadex 2013-08-26 02:33

Absolutely amazing!

matthias_zarzecki 2013-08-26 02:59

Ha, this is great. And punishing. And fun!

khananaphone 2013-08-26 03:10

i done did it

thriek 2013-08-26 04:11

5/5 for Fun. Reminds me of inching through levels of super meat boy...

Well, after as much twitching as I can manager, 2.32 is my best. I want a Rktcr-like mode...

Really fun little game. It's really a memory game more than anything.
Very fun!

Man, this is brutal! Should be called worker's comp: the game.

Good use of the theme, and really nice sounds!

ghandhi 2013-08-26 05:32

I give up... That is a good game. Pretty hard even for experienced players.

feysoura 2013-08-26 05:33

Spectacular.

ghandhi 2013-08-26 05:33

I give up... That is a good game. Pretty hard even for experienced players. I felt like playing old uncle Mario. Everything was in harmony. Very polished!

fferro234 2013-08-26 05:49

Wow, I give up. It definitely helps to play it in twice the size mode, but it is still way to hard for me to get through.

rave-radbury 2013-08-26 12:57

It's like the first half of Quickman's stage and Kaizo Mario World had a child and failed to raise it properly so it became vicious and cruel (even by their standards.) Great job!

codifeye 2013-08-27 07:59

Man that's tough, great game though!

qrunchmonkey 2013-08-27 08:13

Well, I played this 50(!) times. Holy **** is this thing unforgiving. And awesome. And unforgiving.

After 50 tries, my best time was 1.4 seconds. I just couldn't figure out how to beat the 4th obstacle (beam from the top of the block) 20+ times I either jumped too high and hit it, or too low/slow and got hit by the spikes mid-jump.

IMO gameplay relies too much on memorization. Nevertheless the game is well put together. Really like the sound for example. I could see this being expanded on to include a series of levels with increasing difficulty, multiple solutions per a level, and maybe an in-game help system.

mrcdk 2013-08-28 18:57

Ok, I'm done :_ 60 tries and only 1.70s :_ Good game :_

angrygeometry 2013-08-28 23:59

this is so cruel. i think i got 1.62 after 80 tries. i like how quick it is to get back up and going. fun game.

alvivar 2013-08-29 06:59

hardcore + fun.

Possible bug - you can skip the first 1.8 seconds of chaos with one timed jump: http://i.imgur.com/aoPYrJQ.gif

capro 2013-08-29 11:22

Brutally awesome! :)

fgielow 2013-08-29 18:06

damn, that kind of impossible game can me pretty adicting sometimes! nice title, really hard though

2013-08-30 06:14

AAHHHH this game is amazing and I played it for far too long and now I can start it up and beat it without dying. I feel pretty great, thanks!

Pure hardcore, like I Wanna Be The Guy, but without shooting and other insanity. Took like a hundred of tries to beat. Nice!

After beating the Compo version, I've found a music file in the game's subdirectory, and thought - "But it doesn't play in the game?..". Listened to it like it's a reward for beating the game, heh.

The Jam version seems to be different just for the music. After you've learned the way to evade everything, that's only a single try to beat it all. Nice music (sounds too), suits the gameplay.

By the way, game window scaling goes wrong on widescreen resolutions like 1366x768 - couldn't read the lowest text in the intro screen without a resolution change. Encountered no other bugs.

martze 2013-08-31 02:19

The Windows version is hardlocked at 1280x960 because I didn't have the time to change it. The Flash version should automatically pick the right scaling factor for the window it's in. I'll add "more screen size options" to my to-do list for the post-compo version.

bneutral 2013-08-31 03:15

Took me 160 tries but I won!

zerkruemler 2013-08-31 15:33

This is a really good idea. So punishing, but motivating at the same time! I got to 2.3 seconds, but probably only by the bug meintioned by L

kristof 2013-08-31 22:15

Haha, great! Would have liked an immediate restart after each death though.

manuq 2013-09-03 01:29

HAHA! How annoying :)

xhunterko 2013-09-11 03:14

Could not figure out how to start the game and just hit space to see if it would work. Then everything began to happen much, much, much too quickly and not too much fun.

vikingpotato 2013-09-12 05:44

14th try, am still awful :P but some people love such games..
