Can you push a fix with "/" instead of "\" (works on both Windows/Linux)
I think you should work a bit on the physics and hit detection, sometimes I'm killed by a spike under a floor piece if I fall down fast. Also, consider adding more "micro pauses" to your game at level start and death and so on. Now if you die you don't have time to react before the levels start again and occasionally you die once again just because of that. Good work anyways!
The music, however, is good even though it does not necessarily fit the game. The game technically fits the theme, but I think it was kind of cheaty with it but I can't really fault you on it; it was on one screen. The difficulty curve is pretty much perfect even though most of the difficulty is cheap and fake.
Don't know what to say, since apparently other Mac users have gotten it going.
Good job on controls that are precise enough to not get frustrated. Great level design pushing to test skill.
Overall nice game.
