So funny. I also like that you can jump in air.\rIt would have been nice if moving platforms carried you though, that made it a bit too difficult!"},{"author_name":"Scipio Xaos","author_uid":"7742","time":"Dec 17, 2013 @ 9:15pm","epoch":1387314600,"text":"Yea, we ran out of time. We wanted to make the platforms move you, and intend to have it so when we finish the post-compo version. And it was the collision detection that took up most of our time and it still came out buggy. XD\r\rThanks for the comments, guys. Glad it's been enjoyed a little. :)"},{"author_name":"StMatn","author_uid":"18894","time":"Dec 17, 2013 @ 9:26pm","epoch":1387315260,"text":"Cool idea!\rThe music is quite nice and I like the jumping animation^^\rLevel 4 is too hard for me. Please don't be offended, but moving platforms, that don't move you while standing on it are really cruel...\rThumbs up, for using pure Java :)\rIn the pause menu you have written "Leertaste" instead of "space" ;) Ansonsten super Arbeit :)"},{"author_name":"Scipio Xaos","author_uid":"7742","time":"Dec 18, 2013 @ 12:10am","epoch":1387325100,"text":""Leertaste"? Hmm. Quite interesting. Getting the name of a key using the Java keyCode methods yields translated names depending on what's the system language you're using... Heh heh. I agree, though. Those platforms are really annoying... And thanks. :)"},{"author_name":"kalth.streil","author_uid":"30964","time":"Dec 18, 2013 @ 12:20am","epoch":1387325700,"text":"I really love the animation and the midair jump XD\r\rHowever, it's really hard and I actually haven't been able to finish stage 3 (the one with the switch) because...\r-Friction does not exist in this world, ergo you have to move while on the platforms! And they go so fast it's hard not to fall XD\r-The movement of the platforms is not really well timed and sometimes it's plain impossible to make the jump to get up, so you gotta move with the platform back and forth this the opportunity arises.\r-After you press the switch you can't get into the platform the first time. This makes the scene completely frustrating after a few tries XD"},{"author_name":"Scipio Xaos","author_uid":"7742","time":"Dec 18, 2013 @ 2:35am","epoch":1387333800,"text":"Yea, we didn't make it to friction sadly. Platform movement probably wasn't thought too much through by my bro. And that first switch is a little antagonizing.\r\rThat being said, a game-breaking bug was fixed that prevented you from even being able to finish the final level so hopefully you'll be able to beat this demo (almost typed demon :P ) now. :P"},{"author_name":"Tomski","author_uid":"30523","time":"Dec 18, 2013 @ 9:12pm","epoch":1387400820,"text":"Hard as balls!
