Classic Newgrounds content

Cute little game - love the atmosphere.

Some minor feedback:
Graphics could be a little clearer - the gray platforms sometimes looked like they were part of the background. The toggle blocks could also show an outline when they are turned off, so you don't crush your own character when they turn on.

[Boo! Bark!]

This is amazing, and it looks like my dog too!

[The Whicher]

This is funnier than I expected. Reminds me of the good old days of edgy web content.

[Badass Beatrice]

I feel like I have travelled back in time 20 years. :D

[Pixel Puzzle]

Cool game.
The programming limitations are kind of charming, it reminds me of when I was learning to code.

[Floe]

Fantastic graphics and atmosphere. I'd pay to play a larger metroidvania-style game with these aesthetics.

That said, I found the movement a bit slow and clunky. I get that it's underwater, and it's fine to have that in portions of the game, but I don't want to feel like I'm swimming through honey for the whole game. The hit box boundaries of your mech and the obstacles and enemies are not very clear due to the size and complexity of the sprites. And combat was quite simple so far.

So this to me feels like a promising prototype for a much larger and more fleshed out project.
I don't want to sound too critical, I just feel like what you've got here has the potential to be a full paid game.

Very cool multi-tasking game.
Difficulty was a bit tricky at first, but all that's needed is some practice using both hands.

[Bird On Bird]

Fantastic game!
I've noticed some collision detection problems in fullscreen - if I push into a wall I can start slowly going down through the ground. I'm guessing this might be a rounding error which causes issues on certain stage scales - I had a similar problem in one of my games.

Starblinky responds:

Ahhhhh shit. I actually hadn't even tried the game in full screen! Thanks for that report, I’ll check it out when I get home from work.

And thanks for the review!
