Completed the game with score 18. Not bad! I think you could have used another platform in the "Please wait..." part, because it feels but nonsensical to just make the player wait for very slow platform.

Controls were fairly good, which is a good thing for a platformer.

It was odd to have to wait for the platform. It would be nice if it either moved faster, or the camera was pulled back so more of the level is revealed in the frame.

Not bad for a first run in with Unity! I liked the graphics, too. As others have said it's not ideal to wait for a slow platform...maybe it would be better to have it start moving after the player steps on it.

not bad for a first try !
Does the hero just float or did he have black legs ?
I suggest to avoid putting a same color on your main character and in your background for a good visibility.

Level design needs to be more streamlined, a good game nonetheless considering something made in 48 hours.

The main character was cute!

What do you think of Unity after this experience? Plan to use it again for 2d games?

only complaint is waiting for the platform. Otherwise, good job!

@y2bd I haven't familiarized myself with the 2D tools yet for unity 4.3, since I haven't found too many tutorials that deal with the new tools yet. Definitely plan on learning the 2D tools and creating 2D games, but in the long term I want to make 3D games with unity that work with the Oculus Rift.

I was not sure if the cute guy have leg or not maybe because they are black. The moving platform could be a little faster. There was a nice feeling in your entry I tried it 12-15 times and made it to the end.

I didn't really get the relevance to the theme ?... :/

Anyway I liked the graphics and mood, and the gameplay was responsive :) Congrats on your first LD !

Great platforming physics. A little slow, but good!
