I decided to join the LudumDare26 late but somehow finished my game! Surprisingly it only took 7 hours! The game is called "Jumper". You are a potato trying to get across a level for no what so ever reason. There are 25 levels.
All levels are beatable. Trust me, I've played and won every level multiple times. XD Also my friend won the game without a single problem. Are you experiancing lag? My game does have this one glitch where if the framerate is lower than 60, the jump gets lower. It's weird .__.
Nice work for 7 hours! I like the creative level design, and taking advantage of clipping through the block to make solving the puzzles more challenging. At first when I heard that you had limited jumps, I wasn't sure how 'hard' a game of such design could be, but thankfully, it made me think about how I was going to solve it. Great game for the theme! Good luck!

At first I was like: "this doesn't work!". And now I'm all: "this is so smart!". Best thing is, you feel smart for beating it. Maybe you should explain the glitch jumping, I had to read through the comments to get it.
@Zanzlanz Great game too buddy. :) I did learn a few things from this though. 1, fix bugs. Maybe make 5 less levels but use the time to fix BUGS! 2, a game engine doesn't need to be hard to make a heck of a good game. 3, you don't need 48 hours to make a full game. :)
So yeah, thanks for the review! :) Also that "advantage" was a glitch hehe... got to lazy to fix it. XD
Thanks for the reply! I was sure the clipping was unintentional, but again, I really love how you made it add to the game play. It made it unique and much more challenging of a puzzle.
@zanzlanz Like I like to say, it's not a glitch, it's a FEATURE! :) Turning glitches into features is the way to go when you don't have time. It's easier making a glitch have a purpose than to remove it. Besides, if I removed it, I think the game would of been much easier.

@DBRalir, yes it works on all OS's, I just didn't feel like making a mac and linux release.
@dalbinblue, Thanks! :) Yeah I kinda regret not putting a file in my zip telling people about that *feature*. I'll add it when I have spare time.
