This is my second Ludum Dare and the first time I submitted a game. The game is a short and buggy platformer. It doesn't really tell you why Mad Scientist want to kill you but at least it's a game that you can play through.

UPDATE: I fixed two major bugs that caused the game to not load in Firefox or Safari. For best performance I would still suggest Chrome.

Controls:
Left and Right - move
SPACE - jump

If you disappear into flames - reload
If you are hit by a mad scientist - reload
If you jump into a wall and get stuck - reload
If... - reload

Tools:
Acorn
bfxr
CoffeeScript
Vim

You need to add support at least with Firefox or IE 7/8 :(

I'll try to add support for Firefox this week but I cannot support IE 7 and 8 because of lack of Canvas support.

First thing I did was jump through the wall to the left and into the fire and get stuck. But I guess I have only myself to blame. ;)

Couldn't get it to do anything :\

A little bit buggy and very short, but it works! I like the sounds, especially the chopper sounds. Obviously the game needs a lot of work still, but it's a promising start.

I don't like that when I die I have to reload the page.
Pretty hard platformer!

Needs a restart button, pretty badly... but pretty good fun nonetheless! I quite liked the graphics, they reminded me of playing games in Windows 95 when I was a kid (sorta like capture the flag: http://www.carrsoft.com/ctf/capture_the_flag_game.html).

Thank you for your comments! I made the game to work in Safari and Firefox and I'll try to get it to run on IE9 later this week.

And yeah.. It really does need a restart button :D But when time is running short you have to cut some features. Next time. I promise.

Big props for finishing something, even if it isn't the most dramatic thing ever shipping it is all important!

Too slow for my PC, not rating.

Hahahaha:

If... -reload.

The dialog boxes got really annoying.
Other than that, this was a good, if short, game.
