"AAaaAaaGhhhg!!!" ^ That's the sound I made when I got zapped RIGHT OUTSIDE THE DOOR on the second house. 5 stars on the title lol PRETTY GOOD overall

It's far away from easy! I just complained at an another game which used thunderstrike but didn't manage to add sound effects and how I miss it. Here though it's shocking. This game is really not forgiving. Just one bad move and you're out. I tried so hard, but only managed to collect 3 and almost got 4. It's either a perfect move-strike or you're out. Did I already say... YOU'RE OUT! :D

Nicely put together game overall. Simple to understand gameplay, good mood with graphic/music/sounds - especially liked the lightning hit and the guy to die and turn into ash :) I'm not really into platformers so it was difficult for me to even get until key 3 :) Otherwise great job, well done.

The graphics are really nice and consistent, couldn't manage the platforming for some of the later sections but with 10 seconds it's a nice quick loop to attempt them.

Very hard game, I only managed to get 4 keys. But I like the lightning effects and how quick it is to restart! I think the gameplay would benefit from coyote time, I found the platforming to be almost impossible (or I'm bad at platformers). Still a good entry!

Hey, thanks for sharing this on the stream! I got 5 keys! my good run ended by getting stuck at the bottom of the map but overall I really enjoyed my time with this one. It worked really well as a streaming game because I could talk to chat while I was hiding in the house from lightning. The push-your-luck elements were really nice too. Great work!

A fun little game that I found very... unforgiving...

I talked about it on my stream a bit but I was not too big a fan of the waiting around when you already knew you missed your one chance at making a certain section. Some checkpoints would have been nice. Otherwise I really liked the artstyle and the thunder effect was really nice! The platforming also felt solid, so really well done!

before I played this game I was curious about playing the original "Unforgiving"

...I think I'm no longer interested :p

this was a fun little rage-type platformer game! I really liked the graphics - very clean, minimalistic, and consistent!

also, that door open/close sound effect is top notch

A gauntlet of pain that I had a lot of fun with.

A suggestion I said in the stream was adding a buffered jump system where pressing jump whilst still in the air would "queue up" a jump that would trigger on touch down. I think it would make the sections where you have to cross multiple platforms a bit tighter. It would also make it easier, which might take something away from the game!

Nice entry overall.

i only can to get 3 keys (the one at right, and the first two other at left. its impossible to jump enought hight to take the one on the upper plateforme. else nice art and death anime !

Unforgiving is correct.

simple but effective use of the theme, i like the anxiety of the last seconds. very unforgiving but enjoyable
