Platformer - Ok I Need A Name!
Please Tell Me Your PC specs and your FPS rate

The Story
Ok so i opened up gamemaker one night and im like "Im gonna make a physics engine for balls in gamemaker" and it went pretty well! But as i kept working the game started to form from it and before I knew it I was in photoshop creating graphics and messing with blendmodes. After about a day of tinkering I had a weird game engine with this black ball of blendmode shaded furry was jumping around on my screan, splashing in water and useing his grapple hook and jetpack skills!

I decided to put together a demo for you guys, with meny hidden features like 2 bonus levels which you have to work for In the first level the only cool thing is the wall jump system which is easy, you jump into a wall and you bounce up more then a normal jump! You can also mess with teh fallblocks and hit the spikes. All along the level are meny secret areas including one that if you get to it and send me a screanshot you can have the gm6 file!

Screanshots

The controlls are simple
W,A,S,D to more D to jump
Left Mouse Button for the jetpack once you have found it!
And Right ouse Button for the grapple hook once you have found it!

Sounds interesting, I actully found some inspiration though and i Think Hidden would be a good name for teh game because the point is to find the hidden aspects of the game to progress! Thx for teh reply!

Good job. I found all 3 exploits but couldnt get to either hidden level. What do you mean when you run along the falling blocks and jump between the 2 pillars. I think i know what falling blocks you were on about but the didnt know the 2 pillars. Anyway good job although a little annoying at times.

8/10

EDIT : Got to the final level. Still feel the same though.
