Comments:
-For the Zerosoft Retro Competition here.
-Somewhat inspired by Assassin Blue, by banov (which, by the way, you should try if you haven't already); you'll probably see elements of gameplay that are similar to it.
-Made in GM6.gif GM6.1 Registered.

Hope you enjoy it. If you can, please rate it on YoYo Games or leave a comment; I appreciate it smile.gif

Ouch... I can't seem to play it. It quickly takes up all the space on my computer, until I had to restart my computer.

Very nice graphics.
Confusing, yet awesome.

Awesome.
Movement was very good.. and the wall jumping was awesome. I loved the level design and the Jokes. Overall I rate it 9/10

A little too fast but overall it's a great game. Graphics are nice and gameplay is nice.
4/5.

graphics are a bit repetitive, but they're okay.

of course, the gameplay is too fast. and I thought the sound quickly turned into an annoyance.

I loved the attacking, that was very well done. and the wall jumping was easy as pie. good job there.

I think I did everything possible so far...I've gotten the list of ingredients from the yellow guy, but I can never progress.

So the main menu does that too? Probably the music then; it loads four mp3 songs in the beginning. Sorry. Actually does the same for my friend's computer, but his is about 5 years old and happy-virused.

Thanks. Glad you like the graphics, because to be honest, I hate them tongue.gif

Glad you liked it, orange smile.gif (saying "Thanks" too much; need some variation).

That's two. Again, surprised at how you like the graphics (specifically talking about the bushes and rocks). Thanks for the feedback.

You haven't won until you get to the "The End" sign. I'll post a video walkthrough in a bit. Meanwhile, here's how to do the rest past that.
SPOILER - BE WARNED...I'm warning you!
Ok, here it is (in white text; highlight to read).
Go back to the beginning after getting the ingredients, and talk to the guy that thinks it's cloudy. Then talk with the people there, get the camera, and pass the lemonade stand (which won't say "Oh, look. Lemonade" anymore). Slash the guard to bits, and pass through.

Again, thanks for the replies, everyone smile.gif

alright cool. I played past it until I reached a boss. then I quickly died. before, I though the movement would suffice, but now, with enemies, it is really way too fast. it's a lot of fun, but too hard being that fast. also, I didn't like how attacking sticks you to the ground. I wanted to attack and quickly jump away from the enemies, but instead they run into me.

anyway, good luck with this game.

Thanks, ND. I usually wait a bit before replying, but wanted to answer the thing with sticking to the ground. If you hop a little (tap Up) and then as you are falling down, press X, then it does an aerial attack that you can jump out of easily.

Good work, nice graphics, I like the movement and the wall jumping. Didn't have sound on, though so can't comment on that. Well done.

there was not really anything retro about it... the music sounded like messed up atari 2600... sorry I'm not trying to be mean but the music and graphics weren't really iconic. the graphics were ok but they looked like a step between NES and SNES so it was no't so retro..

gameplay was nice the platform movements were smooth almost flawless.
