Heres what I said for the other game in the series (Temple Death) "not really my type of game. Very "I wanna be the guy" except no big surprise deaths that you can't see coming even if you're paying attention, so thats good. If that sounds like your thing, then go ahead."

This game is however shorter, even if you dont count how artificially prolonged the other game is by having you do it over again backwards.

Great platformer up until a certain point very close to the end where it becomes too pixel precise to be much fun for me.
It's also quite short but it has collectibles that you can try to find if thats your cup of tea.

The graphics are simple but they work for what they were meant to and the music is absolutely fantastic.

The best Tower defense game I've had the pleasure of ever playing. The technology tree keeps the game sessions varied enough that I would actually consider playing it again somewhere down the line. Not something I can say for most games in the genre.

Unlike everyone else the game ran just fine for me on win 7. The windowed mode didnt bother me since it matched the width of my screen perfectly while leaving a little at the top and bottom open, no big deal.
It was however not really my type of game. Very "I wanna be the guy" except no big surprise deaths that you can't see coming even if you're paying attention, so thats good. If that sounds like your thing, then go ahead.

The game has simple but very nice looking graphics reminicent of the 16-bit days. The music is nice aswell but the gameplay isnt up to the same standard.

Its a platformer. but it lacks the fun factor of the big games in the genre. This mainly is due to one thing... Tardy camera. Instead of being constantly centered on the player it lags behind abit making jumps between platforms harder than they need to be. This is especially annoying when a missed jump can kill you.

There is no limit to how many times you can die, you always respawn at the spot where you entered the area. But the respawn isnt instant like in super meatboy, the camera scrolls from the place of your death to your player. You can actually die again while this is happening believe it or not because youve already respawned even if you aint in the cameras field of view.

The story is also so bad its bad, dialog is the same. But who plays a platformer for its story.
