And yes, unfortunately there is only one level for the game. The ending I wanted it to leave it more open ended with the possibility of there being more to build on.\r<br\/>Thanks for playing though!

Really good visuals, might try focusing a bit more on gameplay next time though, but I understand the time crunch."},{"author_name":"MadGnomeGamer","author_uid":"10251","time":"Apr 26, 2012 @ 12:53am","epoch":1335401280,"text":"Graphics are awesome...controls, meh. I was rather suprised to find out that I could not jump from on top of crates, for example. Also I got stuck in the wall."},{"author_name":"tacograveyard","author_uid":"8423","time":"Apr 26, 2012 @ 1:06am","epoch":1335402060,"text":"Good graphics. Had trouble with the controls: stuck to walls, couldn't jump off boxes. I also somehow knocked the core off the screen and couldn't destroy it. Had to reload the game to finish."},{"author_name":"xBlinkedx","author_uid":"8072","time":"Apr 26, 2012 @ 1:12am","epoch":1335402420,"text":"Nice little tech demo. It was pretty short, but looked really nice, I'd like to see something like this made into a full game. Also the jumping could have used a bit of work."},{"author_name":"Tokken18","author_uid":"5610","time":"Apr 26, 2012 @ 1:16am","epoch":1335402660,"text":"Hahah, to tacograveyard, sorry about the knocking the core off the screen thing. Didn't realize that was a problem until after submission when a friend of mine was playing it and managed to do the same thing! I created a fixed version afterwords. Only minor tweaks (fixed box jumping issue, and core flying off the screen) though some things remain a problem such as sticking to walls. The updated version is also a little easier (higher jumping, lower platforms). \r<br\/>Just wanted to thank everyone who's played it so far and commented! This is my first Ludum Dare and really love all the feedback!"},{"author_name":"30dogs","author_uid":"12480","time":"Apr 26, 2012 @ 1:30am","epoch":1335403500,"text":"Short but sweet. I wish there were some baddies to shoot! The environment is good and I think the core looked really cool. I didn't like that you cling to the walls when trying to jump up a ledge (unless I missed something), but hey I know that Unity platformers are way harder to make than one might think."},{"author_name":"DiscoFish","author_uid":"12320","time":"Apr 26, 2012 @ 2:11am","epoch":1335405960,"text":"Cool visual style!

Effort went into planning the layout of the tutorial, and deciding on that camera.\r<br\/>\r<br\/>Slap a cooler looking main character (or not, whatever) and add in some mouse targetting and some more variety of gameplay - you've got a solid platformer that anyone would be glad to play over and over.\r<br\/>\r<br\/>No joke, the visuals and experience alone will get people to play this game. Keep on keepin' on, you're did a good job!"},{"author_name":"Zoomyzoom","author_uid":"7301","time":"Apr 27, 2012 @ 9:43pm","epoch":1335562680,"text":"Pretty cool but its to short!"},{"author_name":"Codexus","author_uid":"187","time":"Apr 27, 2012 @ 9:48pm","epoch":1335562980,"text":"It looks really nice but it's a bit short."},{"author_name":"gritfish","author_uid":"10705","time":"Apr 29, 2012 @ 5:19am","epoch":1335676440,"text":"Possibly the shortest game i've played. Not that that's a bad thing. If you take this further I'd suggest adding directional shooting (given that you used the mouse, I assumed I could aim). I didn't realise sticking to the walls was a problem. I assumed it was a ledge-grabby thing. Great graphics."},{"author_name":"spiral","author_uid":"5765","time":"Apr 29, 2012 @ 9:19am","epoch":1335690840,"text":"Looks great!\r<br\/>Nice tutorial style intro but where's the actual game?\r<br\/>Needs more levels and some audio.\r<br\/>Nice job tho!"},{"author_name":"matthias_zarzecki","author_uid":"3880","time":"May 6, 2012 @ 12:01pm","epoch":1336305360,"text":"Nice basis for a platformer!

I think sound effects would resolve this! The graphics are amazing, really nicely put together system. A little hard to see where to go as quite dark, loads of scope to continue the experience though, good stuff!"},{"author_name":"azurenimbus","author_uid":"12119","time":"May 10, 2012 @ 2:50am","epoch":1336617900,"text":"I've played just the original.
