Brilliantly weird, but those white guys are really annoying.

My protagonist was stucked outside the image when I was going to the left out of the screen, I couldn't continue playing :(. And the controls are not ideal at the moment.

I could not play the game... I should click? it does not react to left nor right button. However I liked the graphics, so i am reloading this page tomorrow and i hope i get some instructions :)

(the music reminded me ski academy on my PC382 computer from my childhood)

Nice little game. Couldn't quite figure out the controls, but the wall jumping is great and the mini games rock!

Cool interpretation of the theme, and the combination of minigames and a platformer worked really well.

In a few places it looked like I fell through the bottom of the level and expected to have to start it over, but instead I was able to jump out of the hole even though I couldn't see the character - a little confusing.

Fun game. Liked the platforming and the electricity game the most. But it needs a way to restart after death. I had to reload the page each time I died.

I gave you mostly top ratings because fuck me it's good in every aspect. Sure it needs some polishing (how did you fail to implement death detection?), but it's something you could sell. Like, for money.

Finally I got it working. So, graphics are nice. The mini-games interesting, however the battery charging has a poor feedback, better feedback would improve the experience.

The music is okay, for the first two or five minutes, but after that it becomes annoying. Walljump are a good idea, maybe it could have a feedback to. For example like in Super meat boy, it should slide on walls.

I overall i gave it a good rating, because this is one of the better games on LD30

The has a cool style and despite the awkward button assignment the mechanics work well. However I got into a phone charging minigame that was just way too difficult to complete, so I couldn't get further than that :)

Really strange but enjoyable!
The controls are quite disturbing

Hmm, I tried to play this several times but for some reason it just doesn't seem to do as I want. I tried wall-jump no luck. I could do normal jumps and movement, but that's it.

Then I went to another level where there was a battery and lights... I tried hitting all buttons but nothing happened.

Unfortunately I think I cannot rate this game.

VERY nice! Some of the enemies had some strange behavior, but all-in-all a well rounded experience.

Totally bizarre, but I liked it. Wasn't quite sure what to do at the start, with the controls for all the minigames being explained in the same place though.
