Great graphics. Am I on drugs? Oh.. I am..

mark-feaver 2014-04-28 04:22

I like the graphics. Some of the physics and collision stuff seems a bit off, but overall quite fun

mincemeat 2014-04-28 04:24

Made me realllly nauseous haha.

Trippy camera, very difficult for platforming xD

leave it to someone doing LD to upload a game in the middle of a tornado. I'm imagining you as some sort of ninja coder, fixing bugs and catching exceptions as a deadly whirl of debris flies around right outside your window, threatening to destroy you at any moment...

Haha memorable visuals and quite fun ! I love the nasty artstyle :D The balancing is a bit too punishing for me though

benmcnelly 2014-04-28 17:30

So nobody has got to the cookie yet???

mutuware 2014-04-28 20:37

Groovy!

Felt like an acid trip, pretty cool platformer.

quantumpotato 2014-04-29 00:03

A platformer with air control puzzles? Great! I've been rating other graphics a little too highly.. after seeing this. Nice effect - how did you do it?

quantumpotato 2014-04-29 00:03

Update your main image to the pretty one.. probably grab more atetntion

otato 2014-04-29 00:07

Thats a pretty sweet MS Paint cookie. Also thanks for messing up my vision for a few minutes with that effect.

benmcnelly 2014-04-29 05:24

Your welcome, and you aren't a bad looking potato yourself ;-)

i like the trippy colors and warped camera,
the controls are smooth and responsive, the collision with the stuff you need to avoid is really hard though.

gnutek 2014-04-30 12:35

Quite hard, but fun :) Awaseome graphics!

What a weirdly beautiful game. The most unique looking game in the compo.

zeppelincaptain 2014-04-30 17:01

I hope you survived the tornado! :O

As others have said, strangely beautiful. Amazing what camera effects can do to change everything.

ezombort 2014-04-30 17:08

Nice game. Loved the gfx and the effects :) First time I started the game the controls did not work but after a reload it worked perfectly.

tijmentio 2014-04-30 17:16

GOT THE COOKIE!!! This is really difficult, but that shouldn't be a bad thing if it wasn't just so unforgiving: Most of the time you don't see what will comes next when you leap of a ledge and if you land on it you spawn all the way back at square 1... The visuals were really interesting! I wonder if cockroaches see the world like that.

camlang 2014-04-30 17:18

This is great! Good game. Need to develop further.

lokijki 2014-04-30 17:20

Whooo! I got the MS Paint cookie! Hope you survived the tornado!

daanvanyperen 2014-04-30 17:52

Pretty!

ilo 2014-04-30 21:09

Wow, those are some psychedelic visuals. Is that what happens if I eat the cookie... nom! O.o

dreii 2014-05-01 05:32

Little hard to play but I love the effect you got going with the graphics! hope you dont blow away!

benmcnelly 2014-05-01 06:17

Thanks! I am safe and sound, and can't wait for next Ludum Dare (although the bad weather I can do without). In case anyone wants to try it with some sound, I went ahead and posted a link to the "Post Compo Tweaks (web game)" that just adds in some music and a finished second level.

papygaragos 2014-05-01 15:45

That's pretty trippy

delfino 2014-05-05 23:43

Loved the visual effect, the controls felt good but the level was a bit crowded, I died a bunch
