Got my download reward and started in last night. Digging the game and going for the hard to get secret chests. Some really excellent dash platforming. Can't wait for the cart to arrive.

@JamesRobot thanks, glad to hear it. Yeah, of the playthroughs I've seen so far, there are still some chests ppl don't seem to have found.  

@Gloves, awesome! I like to hear when carts have arrived safe and sound. I've been paranoid, figuring out the best packaging configuration.

@Beau, your copy should hopefully ship soon. I will be posting another KS update shortly. I issued the orders for USA loose carts yesterday and they are now shipping, USA CIB should start going out tomorrow, and USA Deluxe....is taking longer to process than the others for some reason.

It'll ship after I leave town it looks like, but it'll be sitting there for when I return  . Congrats on getting featured in Retro Gamer too! That was an amazing surprise to see when I flipped through the pages.

Aw man, I missed this! Will the carts be for sale online? Or a ROM download for sale?

This game is tough! I'd be helpless without the infinite spawning 1up chests (also I've found at least one 1up chest that turns into a potion if you scroll the screen too far to the right, evil!). I dig the music too!

Some screens are really making the most of the dash mechanic.

Also I laughed out loud at this, hilarious. I'm not sure if this was supposed to be "physics" or just playing with the player's expectations, but I took it entirely as the latter, lol.


Edit: Whoa, this has a second loop? As if this wasn't hard enough.
Double Edit: Lmao this second loop, what the hell dude!

@Waverboy, carts will go on sale in March as well as the ROM. Will probably post the details here and you can also hit up nebsndebs.com and sign up for email updates.

@Ausden, glad to hear it  

@DefaultGen, thanks for the feedback. Yeah, I was trying to mess with expectations and make the last boss a lil different

@JamesRobot Glad to hear. You're welcome!

@KHAN Games   Was aiming for roughly 3 curse words per minute. Did I hit it?

Is there a way out of this secret chest or is it a trap? I can't get enough upward momentum to jump back onto the ledge. :/ http://imgur.com/hiUSUyU...

I've played mine a little bit. Made it to the fifth or six level after three tries. It's fun! Looking forward to seeing the end and tackling the hard mode!

I'm loving this game, it really challenges how I approach platforming.

@JamesRobot Yeah, orginally that was inaccessible and supposed to create some mystery (but maybe it was always a bad idea....), but then the level and dash slowly changed and of course as you discovered you can get there now! A one-way ticket.

@Beau I'd be honored if you directed your platforming-ire at NnD!

@arnpoly Good to hear  

@Scrobins09 That makes me happy.   I will have to write a post-mortem sometime on the challenges of designing levels when starting from SMB constraints (1-way scrolling, etc), adding a new ability (a horizontal dash), and then banging your head against a wall.

Is there a possibility for a digital purchase?

-------------------------
Ah, so you found the secret room, eh? Bask in the glory of a Mario Trilogy, a Pair of Zeldas and a Sextet of Megamans. Yes this is the little grey box that could and continues to do. What lies ahead is entirely up to you. YOU DECIDE
