Really fun game, bit odd with score put in for a puzzle game but I guess that adds to the old-school style :P

@Xgor

I hear ya! The game originally had enemies, but I made the last minute decision of cutting them as the difficulty was rather punishing. That and the old school style were the reason for the scoring system.

That was fun gameplay with cute graphics :)
Felt just like an 8-bit NES game, sounds and all.

This is really good. Feels like an old 8 bit game, as was probably intended. Plays really well with some nice little puzzles, cute graphics and sound.

Well done!

Wasn't able to play. :( "flipflop.exe is not a valid Win32 application."

Really loved the style and the retro feel. I played it alone but it just gives this imaginary picture of two people playing it on a NES with controllers. Great job.

Nicely done. Well-rounded mechanics accompanied by nice retro graphics and challenging level design.

PS:
I've noticed a bug when both players are pushing down and try to move to the other's lane.

Awesome entry! Really liked this :D Reminded me of a bygone era. Everything about it is great from gameplay to graphics+sound. The theme is perfectly displayed here.

Good Luck (not that you'll need it :P)

I really enjoy the game, I think playing it with someone else must be 100% better. Beware that Norton is deleting the file =(

That was really fun. Those puzzles are trickier than I thought it'd be. You did an amazing job capturing a retro arcadey feel.

Really cool and fun idea. Plus I feel you did a great job with the difficulty curve to smoothly get the player used to the mechanics.

wow. the completeness of the game is impressive. a big thumbs up for the bunch of levels provided, and the fact of increasing the difficulty and progressively adding new elements such as stones and bridges for each level. I played it with my partner and it works really good as a multiplayer game (as promised ;). we raged quite a lot at each other, in a good way, lol :D

great game, I hope you win with this one! :)
