I can only do so much, I need saaaay 5 people to pm me w/ their email, I'll send the first 5 the .exe and you guise can test it. I think that my testing hasn't been harsh enough and such! The test game has 6 levels and the last one introduces a new weapon. The only thing I noticed so far is it's a little easy to get stuck at random but I haven't figured out how to fix that. But i noticed that if your stuck in the air near a corner, hitting down gets you unstuck... so if anyone is interested there's the paragraph.

It would be interesting if it was easier, and also, if you can, make the sliding when you hit the ground after jumping in a direction stop after some time (it keeps going on forever)...

I liked it. I found the jumping to where I wanted to go rather difficult, but that's probably just me.

No, it wasn't just you. It's very hard to jump on those square blocks.

like it says, if you're moving too fast in the air hit down and you'll drop where you want. or you can just turn back around. It's done in... sigh... game maker (no room left on compy for new engine) so getting stuff to work just right is difficult. that's why when you let go of a key you keep moving, and thus i made the down key just make you stop. aiming was difficult to figure out how to make it work, and trust me this isn't the system i would find optimum. There is no code because i'm to lazy to learn GM's code and it wouldn't really help anyway. so... there. Also, the first level is really a combination of 5 possible first levels, it's the whole tutorial phase. and it's more a puzzle game than action. so those blocks on the top arent supposed to be done in order, but rather to jump over the higher one and land on the lower one. then to get to the top you stand on the block directly below the ledge and go around the ledge. if i could post a video i would... but maybe this may help my game not phail so much if i explained some stuff. soooo there you go.

Is there a way you can remove the Made with gamemaker banner from when the game starts up?
