Doesn't seem to work. Stuck on the title screen
What computer? There is no real title screen, once the game loads, you click to give focus to the iframe and can start playing with keyboard or gamepad.
works for me in browser, i like the art and the way the levels are displayed in the background and the back and forth mechanic. but the platforming isn't fun unfortunately. the jump doesn't feel right.
I like the Meat Boy-like style and how the levels show in the background, but not how you have to restart from the beginning when you die. Not sure it fits the One Room theme but whatevs.
Absolutely punishing! I ended up having to give up after a while just because of how much time I was spending dying in the same spot (100% player skill involved, though), but enjoyed the experience. It eventually got hilarious just holding down the up button and seeing where I ended up.
The hero with his arms flailing as he falls was great, and I loved moving into the background of the room for the next part of the puzzle. Well done!
Excellent art style! I get a very Super-Meat-Boy-esque vibe from the main character. The challenge of having to restart from the very beginning reminds me of old flash games that would send you back to the very beginning if you messed up (And that's a good thing :P).
Also doesn't work for me, stuck on title screen. MacOS Sierra 10.12
Very fun, I like the background
Love the depth of field in the cave. I was amazed when I first saw the gif of the gameplay.
Layer one is pretty hard already, talking about pixel precision jumps.
Loving the overall feel and aesthetics, and the music is a really mellow tune that works great as a background to the game. :)
Thanks for the "Click to Focus" tutorial hint, very considerate!
Hey great entry, I loved the simple flat pixel look, and I am impressed with the pixel perfect collisions, what engine did you use? adding space for jump would be nice - personal preference. I am going to try this again when I have a controller handy. the level progression is well designed, and the visual of receding back into the cavern is pleasing and works well with the theme.
Cool hard game... May be a bit too hard for me and my uncontrollable fingers. Would be nice to play it with a gamepad ! :)
Stuck on the title :(
I like the idea of the game, and the game itself is fun, but the game didn't really seem to fit the theme for me. Also, the hitbox for the player felt a little smaller at points than it should have. I really dig the simple audio track you have playing it really fits the style!
Too hard for me lol.
Nice autotracker music. Game feels smooth, the character has surprisingly much uniqueness/character to it.
This game feels one inch from being really exceptional. As a platformer, though, the collision is wonky and I feel like I keep falling through the floor or getting hung on things.
Didn't work in Safari for me, had to get Chrome out, but then it worked fine!
Nice take on the theme with the levels being visible in the background. It felt like a lot of effort went into this entry, and I enjoyed it. One thing I would suggest is that it doesn't need to be THAT difficult. One hit and you go all the way back to the beginning! Sort of discouraging. It has a good feel to it though, and it doesn't feel unfair when you die.
The music is very nice too. Solid entry.
The mechanics feel very unique. It's amazing how you could give a breather of fresh air to the old and simple concept of a 'get from point A to point B' platformer. I enjoyed every inch of this gaem. Graphics are good (and I like how each hostility is red).
In overall it's very challenging; it took me ten minutes to complete. In the last runs I blazed through the first levels holding jump and ignoring the yellow dots. This gaem is unforgiving, but it is a good thing.
Like the others, I also felt that collision wasn't working perfectly.
The control and collision is kind buggy, but overall is a solid game, Good Job!! (:
So hard.. Why if you die you go back to the beginning......
Really cool concept to be able to see the entire game while we're playing one level. Although it is a basic platformer, it could have some core elements improved. I played the updated version and saw that you fixed a few things, but increasing the player's hitbox and making the gravity more floaty alone would perhaps turn it into a better game. The level design is good, it could be better. A checkpoint system where you could pick it up and risk yourself to save the progress would be an interesting idea, but seeing how short the game is, I can see where you were heading. Also, good showcase of your JS engine! I'm hoping to use it soon! Thanks for the support and ideas on my game as well. Good Luck!
For the life of me I cannot figure out how to start the game.
