Couldn't run because MSVCP120.dll is missing. I suggest you include it with your binaries :)

pighead10 2014-04-28 20:42

Fixed! (I hope)

I liked it very much, although at first I had NO idea what to do :D glad I read the instructions... :)

Unfortunately couldn't run it (0x000007b) I'm on Windows 8.1 if that helps.

It won't start for me on Windows 7. All I get is a dialog box saying "The application was unable to start correctly". Sorry!

Can't run it, get the following error: "The application was unable to start correctly(0xc000007b)" Win7 64-bit

Don't know what the issue is :( For everyone experiencing the error, can you post your operating system, whether it is 32/64-bit, and whether you have any versions of visual studio installed, which versions, and any versions of visual studio redistributable installed.

I get the same error as Seraphina.

mental-atrophy 2014-04-28 22:26

Sorry. I posted that before refreshing the page and seeing your comment. I am using Windows 7, 64-bit. I have VS 2010 installed.

Fixed!

Is the game supposed to be spinning when you first go to the bottom level? It's very disorienting and clips off a lot of the screen.
Other than that, this is a pretty fun little action game.

I liked the game, I wasted some time on it, although the simple mechanic, good work!

Good game concept, although I feel the theme was just an add-on. The gameplay is really fast and I died at like 100k after 5 tries. Hope it is improves in the future

I had fun. It was a very nice upbeat game.

The player character could use some weight in their motion--a touch of inertia and some acceleration goes a long way, I think.

Nice game to bad I wasn't not able to switch my keyboard config on this game as playing with an azerty keyboard is a nightmare !

Pretty awesome, man. Good jokes, very strong to the them but not really feeling the fun levels yet.

vilya 2014-05-01 00:44

Working for me now too.

I liked the transition animation when moving between the above and below worlds. Also liked the way it builds up with different types of enemies. Found it all a bit confusing though.

Runs smoothly in wine. Very hard, even with the instructions I didn't manage to get very far :-(

I like how fast paced it is and hwo the theme is approached.

Decently fun, albeit repetitive.
Music is good.
At first I was very confused, I didn't know how to look through the menus and when I started playing I ended up with this spinning dizzying effect. After a while, I noticed I could score highly by running around in circles. Great.
A simple but pretty fun game, I guess.

pitzik4 2014-05-02 02:59

I found the spinning when beneath the surface made it completely unplayable. Too bad, since it seemed like it would be fun.

jsmars 2014-05-05 09:44

Fun game! A bit slow start and would have done good with a bit more variation in the chasing enemies as they all get stuck in a pile pretty quickly.

Nice little game, The sounds where nice and fun.
