Nice game!

Thanks! Glad you got it working.

@pixelman Duly noted.
And the new version is really nice! Two questions though: One, are there still sound effects in this one? If so, I don't seem to be hearing them. Two, what idiot programmer made the first level so hard?!

1) I removed sound, because a) They add 250% to the online load times, and b) they don't work on Ubuntu
2) What's your IP address? I just implemented computer banning in my game.

That was great, friend. I'd love to play a longer version of that game; you've definitely got some serious talent.

The only criticism I have is that the movement/jumping feels a little "floaty" to me. Not enough that it was distracting, but it just felt slightly looser than I expected, and it reminded me of those old shareware platformers by Apogee in that regard. I'm assuming that was an intentional feature of the design, though, so it's not a complaint...just the closest thing to one that I've got.

Great job man.

@Chicken+Brutus: Woo, thanks. And yes, many many many more levels are coming. I'm shooting for a total of 20 levels, and I've just finished making the 11th.

I agree, the jump physics do feel rather floaty. I 'spect I'll try tweaking them a tad more, though I don't want it to feel too fast as there's some serious precision jumping in later levels.

Oh yes, and you guys are going to hate me after you play level 11.

I may draw the line at 15 levels. My level design ingenuity is rapidly disintegrating,

Computer banning! Awesome!

Wot, no level design contest with five winners?

Probably not. Levels are created in text files, and it's rather difficult to set up a testing environment.

@pixelman
Like I said, this is my mom's computer, and she doesn't have java!

Nice game pixelman. I found it to be a little slippery (Im not sure if you meant to do that) like if the floor was ice, making it hard for me to play. Butoverall good. I LOVE the graphics! My stupid netbook wont show the whole level at once though..... Anyways great game. Maybe you could try out my game sometime.

PS: I didnt capitalize your name this time, do I get a cookie?

Thats really good. Are you trying to turn it into a WiiWare title. Also, any chance of a boss??

it wont start up for me all of these great comments i've been hearing and i cant even play it........f*ck

@GabeGreens:

@Aviator: No, WiiWare dev kits cost thousands of dollars, and you have to be a licensed dev to even buy one. And yes, I'm planning to do a boss.

@cryptonic: You need the latest version of Java. Also, if you see the "loading..." screen, give it a few minutes to load. Java's painfully slow at loading images.

YAY!

You better not eat it. It took forever to bake. (It kept hitting the oven bricks with its head)

lol

Glitch? The old version is coming up at the moment.

@Odntenin: Yeah Java caches apps. You need to reload your browser.

Just to make sure - does your version have text bubbles?
