Took me a while to beat but it was a fun challenge.

I gave up at the "Understanding the pivot is key" screen with the Deepest Sword, but this was well made. I had fun until I didn't haha!

Could you make something like this with phaser or godot?

52min of my life

This made me very angry but also so worth it because my spite helped me to finish this

Loved The Game A Lot

I FINALLY BEAT IT

there's actually no way this wasn't intentional

what?

Also:

Is this good?

Nvm how's this:

dang dude submit this to the leaderboards

I mean its good but i'd have to record it, and do another run. Besides, I haven't played in forever (which is a month ago)

Also the top players are crazy, you should watch 1st place do his run. Even I have no idea how he does it!

(+5)

the utter burden of having a massive peni

This is a fantastic game! Reminiscent to "Getting over it", you use your sword to go from platform to platform, though it is sometimes very frustrating. Fantastic soundtrack. 8/10

(+1)

Good game :)

(+2)

Fun Game, wish the last level was less annoying/hard, 23:08 first try :>

(+1)

Great game!


Cool mechanics!

I loved this game! Solid 7/10...i was just super dumb to not understand how to play it lol 

I feel so stupid I cant even beat the 2 length

nvm

(+1)(-2)

great game, 3 issues

1 the physics kinda suck

2 the swords tip doesnt have collisions

3 WHY ARE WE SO DAMN SLIPERY

(+1)

it falls into the category of difficult physics games so I think only the second issue you mentioned is a real problem

terrible comment, 1 and 3 arent even issues.

(+2)

This one is different good to see

This was a pretty fun game to play. I've had a blast with this one.
