The hit detection is kinda cruel! Those crushers killed me quite a few times in situations where I was on a ladder and they were on my sides, one tile down or up. Otherwise fantastic, as I said earlier.
The graphics are very good generally the game look ace :-). However the controls feel a bit "sticky" and "heavy" - which is a problem when combined with crushing doors. Placing a door next to a ladder (or another door) is almost instakill :-P.
If you continue this, i would like to see more "lightweight" movement. The guy seems to jump a lot for the speed he moves at :-P.
walking over the top ladders isn't something i enjoy (esp. when there's something time-critical like a KILLER DOOR at the other side of it). killer doors were a biiiit nasty. when passing between two rooms i fell through the world (going off the right of the second-right screen IIRC) and ended up on top of another. movement felt a bit sluggish for my tastes.
Nice! As others have mentioned the ladders + doors can be a bit tricky and returning to the start screen between levels confused me a bit. But otherwise the graphics go really well with the concept and the game is a lot of fun.
This is a very nice start to something. I really like the look of it.
The movement seems sorta jerky, or something...I don't really think it's too slow, but something about it feels weird.
Falling out of the world (entering right most room at the top from the left) was fun. I wasn't expecting elevators to kill you if you ride them too high (this seems like a really strange thing to do). The transition to the title screen when you die is also way too sudden, but you probably already knew that.
Really nice, consistent look and a good set of mechanics. As others have pointed out, the player control is pretty frustrating makes moving around feel like too much work.
Very nice game, but as already said, moves are a little too heavy and the hit detection.. well. I got killed by "a door" ! Too bad there's not sound nor music here, that could add some stars !

Very intriguing beginning. I didn't get very far in the game, and the level editor has problems it seems..
Good looking start.
