Ratings and reviews

Though the controls can be resized and moved, it's true that you have to actually release the arrow button to change direction: If you just slide your thumb (like in any other game) you'll keep going the same way, often to your doom. This, plus the cheap deaths in later stages & sporadic crash on reloading ultimately break the game. A shame, because it really does have potential.

Seemed like a neat game with cool art style, but the controls are terrible I don't know if it's button placement or what, but I'll be walking in One Direction and then I try to go in a different one and I'm still going the other way for a few seconds. Or I'll literally push right and I'll just go running left for some reason.

I love the retro style of the graphics, the gameplay is kinda good but it can be improved. For instance, when you die, you spawn right on top of your body so there will be times when you get chain killed by the same spike. There are also times when the jump button doesn't work, I think it happens at the tip of some ledges, maybe adjust the hitbox of some ledges. The combat is also great but it can be more satisfying by adding more death animations. That's all thank you dev!
