Pretty fun game! I liked the various enemies and level design. Cool use of the jump mechanic with the purple enemies - i liked the visible timer

Definitely fun. Definitely fun to see jumpman's head explode when he dies, over and over again.

This was fun and funny to play I love the head bounceing.

Haha, I really love this concept! I think it fit the theme perfectly, really like the permanence. I was terrible >_>

I was kinda useless at this :(
Still neat idea for the theme.

Very fun, got a win percentage of 53%. The "one chance only" is a little frustrating, but it goes well with the theme.

I would love to see this becoming a full-fledged game :)

It was hard, but as I started to get the hang of it, it became quite a fun puzzle.

Pretty hard game :) But it's a lot of fun.

Nice use of the theme and a solid little platformer. I got 6/15 and I'm proud of that! :D

Great game! Such a nice concept to come out of a theme...

Frustrating and hard. But fun, really fun. Your character sprite is broken though, maybe you could fix it eventually!

I failed this game pretty hard.

levelupjordan 2013-12-16 16:54

Okay, I might have made this a bit a hard :P

Cool concept. I felt sad I couldn't retry a level right away, but that made it more interesting: you *need* to do well, so thinking more upfront.

McFunkypants 2013-12-16 23:05

Great feel! So nice and smooth, all the nice znimations and particles and menus all seem to move in a silky smooth 60fps. Great work!

The first time I couldn't replay a level, my thought was "man! that's a hardcore interpretation of the theme." By the time the levels started getting difficulty, though, it was really really annoying to reload to try again.

The check/X animations should probably be about 1/3 as long as they are (awkwardly long).

Clever puzzle designs!

Awesome, very fun! Love that you used the theme twice and I love that you had time to vary the enemies and make a really interesting puzzle. I'd probably buy this for mobile if it was extended and polished a bit, but for the love of all things holy speed up that zooming tick mark!

shaunlebron 2013-12-17 16:03

This is really funny. I was laughing after every mistake. Good use of the comically large close-up of your result too.

parasyte 2013-12-17 22:38

Love it! SOOO difficult. The only downside is that I did not hear any audio.

blazingfanfish 2013-12-19 21:42

Damn, it's hard to beat. Good game:)

zatyka 2013-12-20 15:14

I find a lot of game shoe horse a theme into the game, and it hurts the gameplay. As far as the single-jump mechanic goes, I think the opposite...Nice job there. I didn't care for only having a single chance at each level though.

All that aside, it was quite fun. very nice job!

purefloat 2013-12-24 18:52

Of the fifteen levels, I only beat one, but it was very fun.

kcpunk666 2013-12-24 22:49

pretty good game. good job!

Nice - thought it was too easy at first, how wrong I was. Liked the one jump thing. One shot at the levels was just mean though. :D
