This world is broken by toaster

[raw]
made by toaster for LD28 (COMPO)
Explore a broken, ZX Spectrum inspired world, with only a single ability: the wall jump.

Move with arrows and wall jump by pressing z while sliding on walls. You can use the arrows to move in the air after jumping.

Version 1.1: Tweaked difficulty in some levels, added titles, added background music, got rid of awful jumping sound effect.

Pretty fun platformer! I love that the game really looks like an old broken DOS game! =)

The game is getting laggy for me.

I liked the level where you have to keep your clone alive. Also nice minimalistic art style.

Nice game, very innovative gameplay. The jump sound getting duplicated by the clones wasn't very nice. Great art style.

I really like this, awesome visuals and mechanic. The sound is quite intrusive and could use some music. Great job.

Very hard, but very fun too :)

One thing I noticed was that Level 3 (among the 10 or so I got to) was arguably the hardest for quite a while, almost made me quit, but didn't because, well, fun game :D

One of the better games I've seen so far. Good premise, solid controls (all 3 buttons), and nice visual style. Difficulty curve shot up on level 6ish - the level with the floor you can get stuck on. I think it would be helpful if I could arrow in the direction I want to jump before pressing jump - maybe you "stick" to walls automatically, and then can jump off? Thanks for putting this together!

A fun game with a difficulty curve that hits you upside the face and then runs off laughing. With the graphics, style and gameplay it felt a little bit like a cross between VVVVVV and Super Meat Boy.

A wall-jumper! Wall jumping has a special place in my heart. I enjoyed the visuals, but not the sound of the jump. I think its a really neat concept to have the main character unable to just jump.

Pretty challenging game and nice take on the theme. Loved how you can only walljump.

I like this. And I hate this >_< Damn Factory! HAH!
Cool and unique look and unique idea, too.

It's interesting to have a platformer where you can't jump normally.
Is it possible to beat the "But there is still hope" level, or is that the end?

Challenging but also very innovative. I love the graphics style.

After the first and the second easy level, the third one was really hard.
