It may be just me but it seems that difficulty is so closely tied to the game's identity that it won't work for me. Hope it is fun for those who are turned on by that sort of thing.

Great Free game, you could have charged a bit for it. $1.00 and could have said "A Very Hard Game That Will Kick Your ASS and make you flip off your TV screen lol"

Man you have game making skills.

Anyways please port your future games to OUYA. Love the art pixel style and the gameplay is amazing. Can tell you know what your doing.

Almost beating it. On the colored shapes. (546 Deaths LOL, so far) 1 hours and 36 minutes

Video above is from a pro. This game is CUSS AT YOUR TV HARD lol.

Awesome game! It's like a fast paced metroidvania game with some really nice puzzles and great controls so far! (I'm only 8 minutes in, so far so good!) It's not "too hard"; yes, you'll die a lot but you respawn right away so it's not like you put a ton of work into it, forget to save, and then die an unfair death.

I'm glad you guys like it!

@Brian Cartwright: Yep, if you're not into harder games, it's probably worth avoiding. I contemplated an easy difficulty, but had I done that, people would have beat it and complained about the other difficulties. By putting an easy mode it kind of says "this is for everyone" when really it would just been the easy mode that's for everyone. Usually that ends up with me compromising and removing stuff to make all the modes easier, and I wanted to make sure I wasn't compromising the experience for the audience who likes difficult games.

Any chance you bringing other games to OUYA?

You could charge for them, make some extra money. Art Style fits the platform and I was very impressed with gameplay. Hope to see more games released by you

Just downloaded. I heard it was tough and that's what I like to hear!

Edit: After playing a while I must say, excellent job sir! I dig it.

Really impressed with this game and quite surprised it was free! Just completed the regular hard mode - 58 mins, 264 deaths. Very nice and challenging but fair and really well designed. Hope for more games like this. Well done and thanks!
