the first jump is impossible
<3
Yeah, the first jump was impossible for me... I tried it and died many times with no hint of success. Hoping to slow the game down to a crawl in order to make it playable, I tried compatibility modes, starting with Windows 95 (I'm running Vista). The game seemed completely unchanged, but for some reason I could make the jump now, and I went on to complete the game (though it was still tricky, of course). I turned off compatibility mode when I beat it and I still failed the jump every time. I'm wondering what the hell this was... a bug?
Anyway, great game. Suggestions: checkpoint every screen, actually make it have a savefile.
I can't make the first jump, no matter how many times I try. The game mechanics seem to be dependent on Windows configuration and/or hardware, as sergiocornaga suggests.
Exactly my scenario. I want to see the rest of the game, but I cannot make it past that first jump. I've tried too many times already.
I'm convinced this is an art game, because there's no way to tell there's a game past the first jump other than people in this thread say that there is one, and there are screenshots.
I love the presentation, the feel and everything, and I was all set to really enjoy this. But that first jump, it's just too far. Seriously, is this a hardware issue or are we missing something?
