I could jump even without picking it up. While playing, I noticed that the jumping is a bit unorthodox, and though it might be interesting to base the game around that. Particularly mid-air jumps and multiple jumps per fall. I think that you could build some really interesting levels around what you have now."},{"author_name":"pwnedu46","author_uid":"15119","time":"May 1, 2013 @ 12:57pm","epoch":1367412720,"text":"Thanks for all the feedback, I really appreciate it. :)\r<br\/>\r<br\/>@berkano: Thanks for fixing it!
