If you are having trouble resetting, you need to hold both up and space for a few seconds. I originally had it with no timer, but then during playtesting I found that unintended self-destructs were too common.

Steve is a man who can make himself grow. He's also on fire. Help him find water to keep him from becoming a crispy slice of bacon. Please don't take this too seriously. Go easy on me, this is my first time. :3

This was pretty entertaining. I couldn't reset the game by pressing space and up though, so I had to close the game after falling.

I DONT APPRECIATE YOUR SNARKY APPLAUSE, ME. DEVELOPER SIR. I do appreciate this game tho, nice job.

I thoroughly enjoyed this! The sarcastic congratulations at the end of a level got me every time :D

I generated 319 just so you know

Title's brilliant, levels are well-designed, humor is spot on, and the lore matches perfectly with the mechanics. Main issue is with the controls.
Mashing W doesn't instantly increase my size, there's an inconsistent delay between zooms. And the size increases are never big enough for one increase to cover my needs, so I've ended up mashing W a lot just waiting for the delay to pass so I can get to the size I need to be.

To solve that, either try making bigger jumps in size (plan it out so I can hit 'W' once and be at the next size most puzzles want me to be) or let me mash W to grow quicker.

Enjoyed my time overall.

Hah, this was quite fun. Very challenging and clearly a light-hearted tone to the thing with the sounds. Shame it got really laggy and jittery for me after level 3 so it was basically unplayable. The restart mechanic could do with being a bit more concrete though - maybe a timer would have helped - also he should self destruct when stuck in a wall/ceiling. :P

Awesome!
I dont think restarting is working, which was really annoying when you fail a jump and have to go all the way back.

so glad i randomly generated the number 92.
Interesting concept, and really good on the humor.
although sarcastic congratulations are not my thing :P

Except that reseting doesn't work for me, I like it. Fun concept, looking at this guy panicking makes me happy.

Funny mood and nice work on sound! Try to improve your level design with some better rythm next time ^^

I like the idea of this game. There are a couple of problems though, the largest of which is that there is no easy to use restart button (holding up and space didn't seem to work) and there is no auto-restart if you fall of the maps which means you soft lock the game as you can't recover. I liked the animation and the graphics as a simple game though and a appreciate your enthusiasm with the audio.

Not a bad first game.

I love the idea and your applauses made me laugh a lot. Don't know if I reached the end, I saw the GOAL but didn't happen anything.
