awesome game man, the controls are a bit too hecting on a keyboard, but with a controller there's no problem. 5/5.
I've been trying to intepret it, but I'm not good with symbolism and stuff, could you help me out? what's it about?
Hey there SadOne, thanks for a review. Originally the game was supposed to be a lot bigger with an abstract story and cutscenes, but a lot of that was left out for this minified version. Originally i wanted to make a game about a mind of person suffering from memory loss disease, like Alzheimer. He/she is loosing their memory (everything becomes static) and want to stop their worsening condition but are unable to do so. 7 stages in the game represent 7 stages of Alzheimer. In the end everything becomes static and they are alone in their mind. As I said I had this idea that i wanted to turn into a game 3 or 4 years ago, but never got around to actually making a full game, so I finally decided to make a micro, online version, naturally the idea didn't translate too well. Cheers, Tadas

What's the point of letting the player go over the top of the screen if there's no warp pipes?

This is the first comment/review I have left in a LONG time - This was lovely. no level was too insanely hard, but they made you think and it was just challenging enough for a few levels. No demand for perfection. A nice, quick game that was enjoyed from start to finish. Didn't leave me bored or annoyed that I had to keep going to finish. One of only a handful games I have ever loved as a 5/5. Thank You for this perfect morsel of a game.

I read your description of why you wanted to make this before playing it and I got the story from it I hope you wanted to give. Good game.
