"Alone" by natpat
If you're voting, use the normal link, but if you're just playing for fun, use the "bug fix" link. It fixes a few bugs with just about everything, and adds more levels and funkier graphics. :)
EDIT 8/5/11 - Updated the "bug fix" version even more. Music! Better graphics! New levels! Bug Fixes! Funky stuff!

Instructions in game. I wanted to add more levels but my brain is too tired to plan out good puzzling levels.
It's a puzzle platformer, and you'll see how it fits the theme (ish) in the second level :D
Hope you enjoy :)

And yes, stegosauruses are evil.
I didn't have time to do sound or music unfortunately, and the controls are slightly confusing yeah... but thanks :D
Indeed, clever puzzles, it could live with being a little bit more forgiving. Consider checkpoints for future releases.
Thanks again everybody :D

I would've tried to replace the song files as a short fix, but my straight-up hatred for ClickOnce application installers has me hissing every time I get near it :P
Great job.
Besides, this game just have tremendous appeal and I just enjoyed every minute of playing it. I just love it.
Good job!
5/5 on every aspect, except the sound ;)
This would be great with a gamepad and more SFX.
The levels were very well designed!
I think it's very thematic :) Taking this and not going alone is literally a big part of the game.
The stages are rather longish though, so starting from the beginning is hard. Either smaller levels or some sort of checkpoint would help a lot.
I dig the pixel imagery, solid entry!
