I got through 50 level packs. Then my progress disappeared, so I just started playing where I left off, & got through about 20. Then my original 50 came back, & I beat a few levels like that. Then that disappeared, & the other 20 came back. Now my original progress is here again. My problem has been fixed, so I have no complaints; I just hope it stays.
The jumping, especially double jumping is finicky. It seems like the double jump can not be used until after the first jump has completely peaked, making it feel laggy. There also seems to be a short period directly after you land when you cannot jump. Also, your double jump recharges if you hit a block from the side, which is helpful, but perhaps not intentional.
Nevermind about the 'following my mouse' part of my last comment, I just had not noticed it since I was a bit laggy while I was still using the higher graphic setting. It works well now, although, I would still like strafe buttons.
I do not have a great computer, but the graphics are great even on the lowest setting. The gameplay is interesting, but I would like a way to strafe during combat, & I would like it if my robot would keep heading towards my mouse while I hold it down, instead of committing to where I first clicked with no way to override that.
Hi MrEe, thanks for the feedback on our game! Glad to hear it looks great even on the lower setting.

The puzzler in me thinks the "magnets" are a nice element; but, the physicist in me knows that that is not how magnets work at all. The directionality could be explained if they were solenoids, but the consistent field strength & arbitrary edge do not make sense. In short, I think it is an okay, somewhat slow, game with incorrect terminology.
The game refuses to capture my keyboard's focus. I can use WASD, but space or the arrow keys scroll the webpage. I have tried clicking the game & such to try & get it to take back focus, but it does not. This is happening after it erased my save data. Is there any reason for this? Is there something wrong with my flash player?
5/5 This is a great platformer; but, it would be nice if the game could remember that I like having the music off instead of having to turn it off every time I play.
