The walljump takes some practise, but if I made the jump higher, you'd keep bumping into the ceiling and that would be even more annoying!\r<br\/>\r<br\/>Also, I think I kept to the theme pretty well as you only get one spear, so you need to get it back every time you throw it. \r<br\/>\r<br\/>Too bad you didn't like the controls man.

I love the little character sprites, especially the old man.  An innovative take on the whole &quot;You only get one shot&quot; that a lot of people seemed to do.  \r<br\/>\r<br\/>The physics for the spear were great too.  I enjoyed wall-jumping, then pitching my spear across the map to pin some dude.  Very satisfying!\r<br\/>\r<br\/>Perhaps my one complaint would be that it's a bit to hard to get to the other side of the map from the top screen.  You can't just jump over the middle divide, and you have to wall-jump to the other platform in order to jump over the center piece.  It's a bit time consuming and bothersome, but otherwise it didn't detract too much from the experience."},{"author_name":"glovecat","author_uid":"28794","time":"Dec 19, 2013 @ 10:46am","epoch":1387449660,"text":"simple but beautiful pixel-art.
