I agree with _Rilem that I had to retrain my fingers to do something when landing, but that's not a bad thing.  I also found a few game-breaking bugs:\r<br\/>\r<br\/>-Camera lost focus on me, and I rolled off screen\r<br\/>-Stuck in a wall\r<br\/>-Hover in mid-air\r<br\/>\r<br\/>They usually occurred when hitting multiple keys."},{"author_name":"SuperlevelSebastian","author_uid":"23031","time":"Apr 30, 2013 @ 5:35pm","epoch":1367343000,"text":"What zatyka said.

The idea of having to manually designate when you land is interesting and has a lot of weight behind it. Lead to some pretty cool challenges.\r<br\/>\r<br\/>I hope you stick with this idea beyond LD, you could do quite a bit with it. It reminds me of The Impossible Game with a twist."},{"author_name":"PsenFilip","author_uid":"20764","time":"May 2, 2013 @ 3:31am","epoch":1367465160,"text":"Liked the general concept, at least the parts I figured out.\r<br\/>Must confess I didn't get it all.\r<br\/>\r<br\/>The collision bounds often times are unexpected.
