[Tidying Up + Secrets of the Sewers]

Very cute! Although the level design is far too unchallenging, and it's sorely missing sound effects.

Bleak-Creep responds:

Very fair! I think we’ll probably try to add a few sound effects in a future update as well as a few more types of blocks to make things a little more challenging too :)

Thanks for playing!

[Super Hard Quiz P2!!!]

I appreciate the throwback to old classics like The Impossible Quiz, and I don't even terribly mind the nonsense answers. The real problem is having to start all over from the beginning, especially with the ones that are more involved like the debugging and the simon says. I wouldn't expect to just get to continue from the same point, but what about some kind of compromise? There could be checkpoints. Or when you game over you get sent ten or so questions back. Or once you've done a question ten or so times it skips that question.

octopus58 responds:

Glad to hear :)
I definitely thought of checkpoints but... ultimately decided against it. I do see what you mean and where you're coming from but at the same time the game is quite short (60 questions) so continuing from a checkpoint would make it feel even shorter imo. Plus I think that it kind of gives an extra challenge to get through all 60 while still keeping your lives.
If I ever do a part 3 though... I'll definitely consider adding check points especially if there's gonna be 100+ questions haha

Thanks for playing the game!

I can't remember the last time I played a platformer with controls that feel this awful. It's like the floor is made of ice, yet aerial control is excessively tight. And checkpoints are infrequent. I gave up on like the third or fourth level. Also the English is terrible.

This is only your second game here and I already knew it was you from the style and the writing

[Fruity Tower]

Pretty good, but way too easy. I didn't get hit once on the final boss. Too much of the time was spent walking to the stairs after killing all the enemies. Also I lost my connection or something because I stopped getting awarded medals sometime before I got to floor 30... Would be nice if it'd resubmit when loading the game.

[Pimbo's Pudding Panic]

the text adventure was funny and promising but holy balls the platforming physics are just awful

[Lunatic Lane]

holy hell the stuttering. i can't play this.

[Juurru]

I"ll just have to imagine how good this game is because I can't see anything with the dark low contrast.

[Nutbuster (✨THE CANCELLED UPDATE ✨)]

literally how do you damage sack's second phase

ChalTheChalkyOne responds:

By parrying ofc

[Marshmallow Ninjas]

The controls and physics are far too sharp for the kind of coordination required, especially with one player.
