Good weekend effort! The physics was a little "floaty" for me. Difficulty level was pretty easy, but I got stuck in the second level at what I thought should have been the end, but there was no door. Maybe I missed a chip?
Oh, and one more thing - I think using x & z instead of x and space would feel more natural.
Had to restart a few times, not sure why but the last level end didn't seem to work for me the first 2 times even though I collected the keys (bug?). Did get it in the end though! Agree with ladron on the physics, but you can spend a lot of time tweaking that sorta thing ;-) Good work finishing up!
Physics needs tweaking, and it'd be nice if the baddies reacted to taking a hit. A little polish and you've got a solid little platformer!
Thanks for the comments. @Nello indeed there is a bug, I forgot to reset the key count when levels change. But you can kill yourself by pressing F2, then the key count will be reset again.
Nice work, could use some polish. The base graphics and level desing are interesting.
Nice work - well done on finishing!
I thought the characters and items looked quite good and the movement physics while not great are not *that* bad - I've felt a *LOT* worse these last 3 weeks :P!
When I stand on the blue line did I win? :) A short, easy platformer. My favorite part was the robot graphics!
@Tom 7 Yep you won... It should've showed you a message, but a little bug crept into my code >_<

Everybody loves a decent platformer.
Good potential here, nice execution. Got to 'the end'. ;)
Congrats on clearing the LD48!
