This game looks amazing, and i really mean that. The trouble with commercial games (and many indie games for that matter, and i am as guilty as this as anyone) is that they are all designed to fit in with people's perception of normality.
It's like the Katamari Damacy of Klik games (at least in the UK)... nobody will bother to download it because it's so crazy and different, yet remains a hidden gem.
I found the controls too difficult (too much inertia), on the first level even after clearing a screens worth of enemies one would appear at a critical moment in the wrong place (where I was usually jumping to) and cause me to fall back to the start of the level. Other than that the presentation is brilliant. That intro vid was worth the download alone!
thanks for the feedback, im still mulling over entering it in any of those pay $100 compos. chris street summed up why i would probably be better off saving my money that i just recently blew on a bunch of music gear anyway.
dr. james - it sounds like you are holding down the shoot/run button and running through the game. it was difficult to balance having big animated characters and keeping the screen 800x600. If you walk instead of run it is a lot easier to avoid enemies. I wanted the run to be like mario where your knuckles turn white and you are just like "ahhhhhh!". There is also a trick when you are about to get hit flip to the opposite direction and hold down jump, you can do a double jump in the direction you were running.

I do have a game in mind but I'm not a good coder so at some point ill have to find someone willing to suffer through how neurotic I am about getting the animation perfect that can do an online 2.5d brawl type game.

MBK has been trying to do 2.5D fighters for a little while now. And he's always short an artist. Not sure if you guys would work well together or not, but who knows!
