Hope you can fix it, looks really nice overall =)

That's odd. Other players didn't say so. You can try clicking the star at the right top though. It skips the intro.
Otherwise, what browser are you using? Please let me know if you have any more issues.
Thanks for the compliment on the graphics!
Fun game and great graphics. I seemed to be able to fly? :D (dunno if that's intentional... useful!)
The Limbo style graphics are cool, even if pixelated sometimes. Some minor bugs in the jump and you can get out of the screen, but it as fun !
Jumping is weird. Limbo style always does its job :D
On Chrome, I had issues playing it : lot of lag, and I loose abruptly, without knowing why. Seems like you have performance issues, because of the high graphical quality of the game. Very nice graphics indeed !
The gameplay was a bit buggy, but the dragon and the rest of the graphics made up for it. Loved that dragon, very terrifying :D
Thanks :) Jumping might be a bit off depending on the framerate as I tried to make it playable for low framerates too.
@plancien: You could try to make the game window smaller or use the smaller one on my blog ~600px wide. Or check if your chrome is up to date. When I play tested on my laptop I had to update my firefox to run smoothly.
Really nice artwork. I was getting really bad frame-rate in Chrome, around 15 FPS. Jumping and gameplay itself didn't do much for me.
screen gloes blank white after going to the play sign (Chrome OSX Lion)
Gameplay seemed pretty solid. Graphics were nice too, considering the timescale. Were the grey patches representing being underground?
As others have said the jumping seems a little off, it double jumps sometimes too. Did die rather suddenly next to the switch, I guess the fire hit me, it just didn't look like it did.
Decent entry!
I had no problems playing. It was a run or die situation with the dragon, I really wanted to befriend it though :) Only problem is the small glitch with the jumping. And some gray areas I don't understand what they were. Maybe you will replace them with other graphics, like vines, water or sth?
The gray areas are underground or rather walled as you can't see the background moving like in the rest of the game. Thanks.
Really nice graphics and atmosphere !
Thanks nerial.
>>Those who have issues playing the game when they reach the start sign. Try to play the fullscreen version rather than the iframe. It seems OSX prohibits some actions. I tested it on a friend's MAC OSX lion (chrome and safari)
Loving the visuals. Can't last very long running away from the dragon, though.
Was the double jump intentional? Anyway great striking graphics, except for the player which seemed to be scaled up and blurry. Also a bit too easy, I got to the end without any problems, however the concept and mechanics are good and there's a real potential for a difficult game here!
It's fairly nice, visuals are pretty good. Although the game is rather glitchy, sometimes you can make double jumps mid air.
It gains on its visual aspect, but drops a bit on gameplay due to the glitchiness of the jumping.
Hey, try to download the flash or windows version

check my game too ;)
About your game, it is kinda cool because i love dragons, i have a dragon game for ouya too.
@juaxix You should have noted I rated that game three hours before you posted this ;) Nice you love dragons :) They're epic
Owh did not leave a second/new comment... :P sorry
Love the art style, very limbo esque. Had a few problems with the jumping. Really nice game.
Well, it is not a very precise platformer. But still the idea is great, it needs more detailed physics.
Overall fun. Like the style. Like other users, I had a bit of lag in Chrome and sometimes (mainly in the beginning) I could go off the screen. And I like the double jump.
Nice style, jumping is a bit awkward.
I played the game in the latest Firefox(fullscreen mode) version and had some lag issues.
I liked the Limbo art style and the gameplay is fun.
Lots of collision glitches unfortunately take away most of the fun. Graphics are good though, although the character is upscaled too much I think, it's pixellated. Overall, decent entry!
@Diptoman Could you elaborate on the collision glitches? The only thing which is a bit off is the jumping mechanism.
Great graphics, very artistic, they create an excellent atmosphere.
Pretty fun - I liked the areas where you had to choose between underground/above ground. Jumping felt a little odd, but it was easy to control. Love the art!
Excellent mood, fabulous crisp and moody graphics - the silhouettes really work well and contrast with that flame. The difficulty was good, perhaps I could have handled it being a bit harder towards the end as I completed it first time. Some music would have been awesome as well, but a really nice entry - the intro set the scene really well too
I like this game. The art is great, the dragon is well drawn and so are the trees... but you only use grey shades. It feels weird with the bright sky, however that makes a cool contrast between environment and the dragon flame/mouth. And I like how you use black for every foreground element : it really feels like the night when it's impossible to distinguish the player and the trees...
The physics are a little weird, it feels like you're hurting the ceiling every time you jump... The double jump is a cool feature, but not realistic : it's almost more powerful than the initial jump.
I wanted to finish the game but the framerate is bad, really bad, 15FPS all the time ! (I use Linux and don't have any problem with HTML5 games...), and it's really difficult to play... (I don't have a very powerful computer, maybe it's just me)
Overall, it really is a great game, with some little improvements it could be fantastic.
Congratulations !
Pretty fun game. Really nice graphics!
This reminds me of one of the worst game I created called OMGAF Dragon!
... but yours is much better! (previous comment wasn't meant to be sound negative sorry ;-P).
Strong points of your games are graphics and mood.
@jacklehamster: Thanks, I had a hard time understanding what you exactly meant :P But I figured something like this.
Looks great! Controls/Physics don't feel right, but I like it.
Unplayable on Pale Moon 24.2.2 (X64) because it jumped between 10 and 25 fps making the jumping completely irrational. Was able to play it on Chrome 31.0.1650.63 m though, but even there the game felt somewhat jerky. The jumping didn't feel right and there indeed were some collision glitches where I would walk against a block and be moved on top of it or could "climb walls" by jumping against them.
The graphics are mostly nice, but I didn't like the mixing of pixellated and fine sprites. Audio didn't add to the game all that much, even though the lightning-part was nicely done.
The basic concept is OK, but the gameplay could use a lot of fine-tuning.
Good gameplay! The jump is failed :( Funny story and great graphics!
Really liked the graphic style and idea behind this game. Interesting to see another game creation tool too - I must check it out.
I'm a big fan of the art style in this game, really nice work for 48 hours! rated highly. :)
