Grab the 11 holly potatoes (ok, not really holly), in a minimum of time. You'll have to jump/slide/die trough a minimalistic level, witch will dictate the gameplay by his 4 colors. arrows to move X to do an action Oh and, potato.
Done with the flixel lib,SFXR, photoshop and flashdevelop.
lots of pixel perfect jumping is required though, death is a slapt to the wrist, but perhaps the controls and hit detection could have been bit more adjusted.
11:21.64 with 93 deaths... La première patate après le premier checkpoint a failli me rendre dingue (j'essayais de passer par en dessous...) En effet, c'est chaud (hitbox, inertie...), mais c'est justifié et cohérent. Good job !
Super dur mais quand on a fait VVVVVV, pas moyen d'être effrayé ! C'est très inspiré, bien fun et quelquefois super bien pensé. J'aime beaucoup :)
Quite hard. At times pressing left or right paired with a bit too much movement to be able to control the character. I had a lot of trouble with the hanging blocks too haha! Aesthetically pleasing indeed ;)

The jumping mechanic was frustrating. I found myself doing the same area over and over again due to how, as others put it, "pixel perfect" it was. (It describes it well, to be honest.) I noticed that the colored areas affected movement and jump, which was fun. That damn blue area though... :P Great work!
When you slide you lurch forward before getting down to the floor so there was one bit where I had to slide through the gap but there wasn't enough of a run up to get down before I hit it. Hit boxes were a bit dodgy - It might even be an idea to forgive the player a pixel or two so that there's more "phew I got through" going on, than "bloody unforgiving game". Every time you step forward it carries on for a split second. which means if you're trying to line yourself up in that thin little chimney, it's not really in your power to control whether the player steps too far or not, unless you step back, and forwards, and back, and forwards, and again and again until you think you might be far away enough to not hit the wall when you step forwards again - and if you go too far or not far enough after that it's unbelievably frustrating because you know you've got to go through the whole process again. I like your idea about the colour zones doing different things. Just needs sharper controls.
- I have to slide in a small orange space. It seems impossible because my character won't start sliding in such a small space D: - I liked the animation of the guy - The death sound is kind of annoying - The mechanic looks like a good idea but it needs to be implemented with better level design.
This is great! The innovation is 5/5. I loved the different background effects, even thought the controls were really annoying and needed more polish. The game was kinda hard and sometimes frustrating but in general it was good.
