I really liked the graphics and the mechanics (reminded me a lot of N+!) and I'm impressed by how many levels you included. I guess you can add more as time goes on, if they're loaded via the Internet?
Really liked the visual style!

Fun game, very frustrating trying to try and get far in story mode. Only thing that annoyed me was the audio clicks a little bit. I love how the music gets more intense as you get closer to the time limit
Looks pretty nice.. A good jump & run! :D
I really like what you have accomplished in the given timeframe.
The music track got a bit on my nerves after some time.
The editor was not usable for me because it would not leave play-mode (time running and game over screen).
The amount of content is quite impressive, well made game :)
I liked the graphical design of the levels, and I am also impressed by the number of levels. (is it actually allowed to upload more levels after the compo ends though?).
I am a bit tired of platformers though, but oh well, that's just me.
for 48 hours it was pretty good

Fun game, and the music worked (though I had no idea what I was listening to). Really slick menu/interface.
Thanks for all the replies!
@stephan_h: Did you try pressing T? That should have paused time so you could actually do stuff. I spent so long messing about in that editor it took me a while to remember I should actually tell people how to use it :/
@ZeppelinCaptain: I'm not sure if it's within the rules, I'll probably just not add any of my own new levels until after the end of the compo voting just to be safe. And yeah, I wish I had the imagination of some of the other people doing this... :(
@Spaceoff: Haha, I have no clue either, the music was absolutely the worst part of those 48 hours, really annoyed I didn't get the chance to actually record something (now wishing I knew how to play an instrument...). I guess at least it being randomly generated lowers the file size?? :/
I like the look. Maze like graphics - pretty fresh.
Character control could be better. Overall pretty good.
I love how you can play and edit levels at the same time.

Ooh! I really like the aesthetics on this one! What you lack in graphic skills, you make up for by having this random glitch-like pattern and a dynamic, helpful background.
Some levels are really challenging, especially when I want to obtain as many coins as I can. The music was a bit annoying, though it did fit the rest of the mood. The music just cut out halfway through though...
Amazing how many levels you made for this. It crashes every few levels for me (terminal output "mmap() failed: Cannot allocate memory" and "Format not supported"), but luckily you made a level selector so I can continue at my own convenience! :)

Cool game. Liked it and very slow paced, a first for a 10 second theme.
@DaVince: I've probably forgotten to deallocate the sound memory :/ Thanks, I'll have a fix up in a bit! :)
Pretty challenging platformer, I had fun playing through it! I like how the screen goes red as time runs out. The sound is also a nice cue, but probably needs a better one.
I'm not sure if it's a bug, but you also only have 10 seconds to edit/make a level :P
Kudos for including a level editor!
@ddionisio: you need to press T to disable the timer! :)
Of course my error was not pressing T when using the editor. :)

I love wall-jump style mechanics (MegaMan X <3). But the hitboxes could be a little better tuned, woudl make for much sharper and entertaining gameplay!
Will post live video review.

Interesting platformer, the tiles outside the levels get annoying while playing.

How do I start the game? The instructions and controls appear when I launch it but pressing S, L, F and Q do nothing.

I liked how the background change color to give you feedback of the time passed. And the tech feeling of the outside of the maze, simple and effective.

Pretty fun and addictive, lots of contents/levels! Unconventional controls but totally functional.
Woha, nice work creating so many levels! Unfortunately controls and the background "music" were very annoying for me, so i probably didn't enoyed so much playing them.
