Excellent thematic mechanic that's simple enough to get and drives decent puzzles as it gets harder.\r<br\/>\r<br\/>Only complaint is the platforming collisions - Occasionally a bit sticky on the walls.

They really add a lot of personality to this game. The levels' puzzles were fun for the most part, but the slippery controls detracted from the experience for me. Much of the game requires precision jumps from high places to build up fall speed, but hitting a wall slows you down and ruins your jump. Given how easy it is to keep moving left\/right in the air after letting go of a key makes it very difficult to complete a full jump without hitting a wall &amp; slowing down. But overall the concept is sound, and a lot of fun!"},{"author_name":"Elemental Zeal Games Studios","author_uid":"12839","time":"Aug 31, 2014 @ 1:54am","epoch":1409449740,"text":"Really pretty game.
