I got stuck when colliding with planets on spaceview two times, having to press f5.
I absolutely love the idea, but collecting wormholes on the plats is a very boring task to be honest.
I just stick to the ground and wait for wormholes. Then collect them and go down as far as I can again.
Really great concept! I didn't have any problems with the controls. The entire game feels very polished and I really look forward to the post compo version!
Easter Egg:
When starting the level a second time and spamming the x key, the queen will come and just jump over the obstacle :)
Wow! love the art, the gameplay, the three playing modes, the music, the sound effects, just everything. This game is hard! Really enjoyed it!
Impressive. The art, the music, the voice acting.
The entire mood was just great!
Also loved the intro. You put a lot of love into that :)
Only thing I didn't understand was: How should I get past that "thing"?
I hid behind a wall, but he didnt care. He just saw me through the wall :(
It took me a little before I realized it was turn based.
The game feels extremely random.
I can ply the rodeo 5 times without updgrading near the beginningb and the results are between 1 and 5 seconds.
after few upgrades I can "try often enough" and reach 10.
So in the beginning, I just start like 10 rodeos and then begin buying stuff...
The menu would have been better with more menu-like controls.
Mouse only would be good with an option to "buy health 100 times".
The idea was good, but the only thing that kep me playing was "higher stats, higher stats"... oh geeze I love having high stats...
Do you have Java 7? Java 6 will not work.
The game was very nice and I loved the two endings.
It looks very polished and the platformer mechanics are great.
I only wish it had a little more content.
My System: Ubuntu 13.04 64 Bit; Tested with Java 6 & 7
I can't run it. If you can find out why, I will gladly try it again :)
The game opens an empty window and it throws the following exception to the console:

Paul Sinnett and I probably have the same error. The window matches his description.
Those graphics... *_*
The game looks great. I cannot play (only have linux. Unitys Web Player is WIndows/Mac only), but the youtube video was already fun to watch.
Using the theme to make each level last 10 seconds is not the most creative way I've seen it being used. That's all the negative criticism I have :)
I made it to the dragons lair! But the game became too slow in that room. holding an arrow key caused me to "skip" 20 turns and be dead.
I love the idea and when I started playing I had tons of fun!
I have two problems with this game though:
- Seconds vs Turns. Especially with the movement (hold a key or smash it 50 times), its realyl annoying that the game is in turns but the time in seconds doesnt match it at all.
- The EXP. In the dragons cave I was too low level.
In the ideal playthrough, you will play a hero until he levels and then wait for the timer to hit zero.
If you die, you waste all the exp you earned.
Very frustrating, as the button hold VS smash problem cost me several levels.
Overall a great game
Physics were a challenge. It was very frustrating to learn how to "hover". But in total the game was enjoyable and I finished it. Was definetely fun!
The first game that I found to support linux,
even if without sound :P
I really loved the game concept and I think it is quite addicting. You created something very original and really fun to play!
The game was interesting.
It got boring very fast though, as I could repeat being a 190% Executive assistant until I had a good costume.
Got me very curious about which costume I would buy in the end.
If it were less repetitive (only offer me some of the jobs, so I must switch often?) it would probably be much more fun.
I enjoyed the theme and art style.
I tested this on Ubuntu 13.04 with Android 4.1.2.
I had a bug that the rendering ingame froze for some seconds regularly, so it was not fully playable for me.
(Also the window size is too big for my notebook. My total height is 768)
Now to the game:
The controls are very impressive from a programmers view.
The controls themself worked very smooth for me and reacted very fast.
I can imagine such a game being a lot of fun with multiplayer!
Reminds me of Wii Gameplay.
Hi, could you please tell me what Operating System and Java version you used when that error happened with my game?
(sorry, I don't know how to send private messages on this website)
My game requires Java 7. It will not run with Java 6.
