Caveat emptor: I'm a programmer first, designer second, and definitely not an artist. The sprites aren't great and neither is the sound.

One issue: Some levels confused me because I would enter the level and have it complete 'automatically' a few seconds later. In later levels I realized that the aim was to kill all the henchmen in some levels. Was a bit confusing to start with.
Quite difficult in some places. I found constantly jumping made me significantly harder to hit. ;)
Favourite moments:
- Seeing the "all trap" level for the first time and thinking "oh damn gotta move". I was really hoping to use those traps to kill a group of red guys but it never came up.
- Figuring out that I can use the mine in the last level to blow up a turret.
- As soon as I completed, the soundtrack did the long epic note, which I assume was a coincidence but REALLY felt like a great ending mood.
Only bugs were the low framerate for the all trap level and that when moving on any diagonal other towards the top-right I couldn't jump, which made the last level harder than it needed to be for me. Neither of these issues stopped me from enjoying your game though. Thank you!
