Death by spikes :) Really fun, I like the artwork!
Super nice graphics and audio and mood. You've definitely got that part down. I'd suggest adding checkpoints to make it a bit less frustrating but very much enjoyed the mood of the game.
Good game. High marks for graphics/audio/mood. I really hope you develop this further.
Gameplay is a little shaky, but the graphics and music are top-notch. Would love to see a more fleshed out game in this style, for sure!
The art work in this is great, An the simple gameplay made it fun.
I liked the aesthetic of the game, but darn it it's hard. You have to restart from the beginning when you die in the 2nd level... (I know, it's to fit in the theme). Nice work on the animation tho, the music is also pretty good too
The aesthetic initially made me think of Hotel Dusk but as I played it felt more and more like an old-school 16-bit era digitized platfomer... but way less ugly than those things were.
Awesome setting, music, and graphics. Gameplay is a little unforgiving. Waiting for that elevator really sucks when you die and have to start over.
Good entry!
Fantastic graphics. You have a great style! Jumping was a bit awkward and movement slow, but it was enjoyable.
I really enjoyed the animations! The overall art style is really interesting too. You already mentioned the only thing that was iffy for me (the collision detection), but it wasn't a big deal. Well done!
I really enjoyed the music and the color scheme helped set a good mood. The game is really unforgiving and it would be nice with some checkpoints (as others mentioned). Overall it had a nice feel and I'm glad I checked it out!
Love graphics and audio ! Death by spikes for me !
Cool graphics and a grooving soundtrack. Lack of checkpoints really cut down on the fun factor especially when spikes can kill you from a mile away
Very nice artwork!
Looks and sounds great. The game definitely needs checkpoints though. Really frustrating to start all over from collision with spikes even though I wasn't even close to them.
The link isn't working at the moment, I'll check back later.
Got it to work! Great use of color and sound. The game was a bit on the boring side, but still a great entry!
bad ass color pallet but with it didn't have to go back to the start each time i die
Very moody, graphics and audio are well done, especially considering this is a compo entry!
Absolutely excellent graphics, reminds me a lot of Another World. Was the character rotoscoped, by any chance? The only problems I have with the game are the glitches (which you mention), but still didn't have much trouble finishing it -- nothing game breaking.
