Fun game. Took me about 20 minutes to finish.

Didn't realize that the red squares were giving you a boost, til a while into the game. Somehow didn't even consider it. Maybe add a arrow or something on them?

Love how it gradually becomes harder and harder so naturally.

[reminisce] Reminds me of how I used a GTA 3 hack to try to get to the top of the highest house. I floated sideways til I found a house just as high as I was floating, then I landed on that house, jumped a foot or two and kept on floating.
It was mighty fun, until I realized you could just travel vertically instead. Took the joy out of it.

Probably the most fun game in the compo I've played so far. The reverse-gravity underwater thing is tres cool.

Nice game. I like the fake scanline effect, they're pretty good but a little too dark.

Good game, a little annoying near the end where you're going all the way from one edge to the other, but overall quite enjoyable.
I like the scanline effect as well, is it just the sprites drawn like this or did you actually add the effect in?
