I gave you only 9/10 because there was so little structure in the whole movie and also the ending was a bit anti-climatic. But apart from that it was awesome. Drawings and voice acting was really good!
Keep it up!

The concept of the game is totally awesome. The principle of using only one key really lets you concentrate on your timing. Its easy to learn and addictive at the same time.
The atmosphere of that abstract world, the worm that follows you, who never lets you rest one single second combined with the background music really makes this game f*cking awesome :D
One of the few games that still can make my adrenalin levels shoot up ;)

This game is really addictive! Such a simple concept and yet it becomes pretty hard after a few levels.. random clicking wont help there anymore ;)

Yes, it was pretty good. You did a great job on the physics and controlls, a lot more playable and accurate than my games.
Still this is far from a real jump and run, as it's not tilebased (a jnr doenst necessarily need a tile based engine, but If you want to do mario, then its probably the most useful approach) , very simple collision system (there are no platforms or a world to check collision against - just the floor), no real "levels" (as I said, just the floor and the boss) etc.
Most reviews here ignored this completly, calling it a jump and run and asking for a full remake of smw lol.. On the other hand only a tiny fraction of NG users know what it all takes to create games (or in general, to program) , so you cant blame them for their ignorance I guess..
Keep it up!

True. The reason I was able to get some much stuff into Mario is because there wasn't much for him to interact with. I couldn't just take this game engine and plop it into a real platformer and have it work just like that.

Its truely great! The music was perfect, did you make it yourself or where did you get it?
Author's Response:
A lot of the music is from the games Phantasy Star Online and Phantasy Star Universe, check the credits section

I like it and its really good, BUT:
If you gave us more levels (not only the same one with less time, thats lazy lol) and made the steering better (yes I know you've heard those two points already hehe) it would be even better!
Keep up the good work!

Actually I liked this game, even though it obviously wasn't programmed very good.
The main problem is the laggs and they are simply terrible. You can't blame Flash Mx 2002 for it. It's just because you didn't optimize your code very good. You also can't say "Since this game has so much in it, it tends to lag on bad qualities". The amout of content doesn't cause the framerate drops, you should know that. I suspect that you've used too much onEnterFrames, and that your scrolling code could be optimized too. I also didn't like the fonts you used in the game, they really don't fit to the style. Overall this game isn't bad, but its really too glitchy and needs some optimization. I hope you continue working on it, because i love mario flash games :) Btw, i've done one too. You can look at it if you want, but it's not very good :/
I'm currently working on a sequel, if your interested:

[I hope you're not offened by this review, I just don't like if everyone's saying "OMGG!!11 THIS IS SOOO AWWESSOM". This doesn't help you to improve. So, don't be pissed of :) ]

Wow this game is wonderful! It's a pity it hasn't become daily winner. I'm a coder too and I'm really impressed of what you created. You need to have great powers of endurance (and a looot of time) to create such a big game!
It was really inspiring and I think im going to try an RPG too ;-)
Thank you for this great game!
Author's Response:
Thanks a lot! I think I have put the most effort into this over any of my other games. It definitely was the hardest to make. I'm glad you liked it! Good luck on your RPG if you plan on making one.
