Did I mention the sound effects?
First off, movement mechanics: each press of the spacebar seemed to move me at most one pixel forward, maybe less. My hand was starting to cramp before I reached the toybox on the first screen. I had to write up an autohotkey script to get through the game.
Second, the timing on the traps was complete guesswork. I realize in retrospect the audio cues were supposed to help, but the whole audio just became an ambient mess and I ended up just skooching forward and stopping at random points until the threat passed. I can't imagine how frustrating this would've been if I hadn't been mashing space 30 times per second. I generally like audio-based mechanics, but these just didn't work out because of the input system. Sorry.
