So people have a couple of problems with my game, which I can understand, but I also think people are just assuming that it’s broken, which is kind of getting me down.<\/p>\n

The main problem people have is that it’s just too fast, which is basically correct. In the game you grow to a very large size, and once you reach those sizes jumping\u00a0becomes very slow and heavy because of your scale and the fact that gravity is constant. So it was a design choice to make the gravity seem very high at the beginning. And that just instantly puts people off. Admittedly I never got round to putting the very large scale puzzles into the game, so I could have got away with having less extreme gravity at the beginning. Live and learn.<\/p>\n

The other problem people have is saying that you can’t get past the second ‘goblet’. This is really a bummer because the jump\u00a0is meant to be solved a specific way, and because people can’t work it out, they’re saying the game is broken.<\/p>\n

TL;DR\u00a0The game is too fast and appears broken when it isn’t which is putting people off playing, and I would really like some feedback, good or bad from someone who’s persevered past the second obstacle.<\/span><\/p>\n

Thanks!<\/p>\n
