I have now played this. And am getting very angry at my partner in the first intermission.

WHY WON’T YOU FOLLOW ME PROPERLY!?

Indeed, there is now a stack of mutilated puppies under my bed. It’s just the way it goes.

No one tell Jaz though – I don’t think he would be happy about it.

Cool review, bro. Looks like a gem, but unfortunately I don’t dig super tough platformers based on trial and error.

Heard the music is fantastic too. I’ll probably pick it up even though I haven’t really heard it. It seems to be getting a lot of notice. Get it from http://souleye.madtracker.net/

Cooooool.

Your review doesn’t include prophecy. Therefore RPS wins :P

I think there’s a big difference between hard hard and difficult hard. This looks like difficult hard. Hard hard is when the game decides to rape you. You know, like 50 tanks on Expert in L4D. Think that’s something people need to make clearly.

I might have a look at this demo, but I have a whole load of indie demos that I still haven’t installed. Damn the collector packs on Steam.

You mean this isn’t your favourite review of it? *sad face*

I reccomend you play the demo over at kongregate if you’re still having doubts. It’s not a hardness you should be intimidated by.

And that bit about Craig is just the truth. Every time you click onto read “I’m a cleaner” there’s a programme set up to execute a puppy. True stuff.

I already knew I could read upside down. It’s why I can’t read ambigrams.

I keep hearing about this, and keep hearing it’s hard. So I avoid it. It reminds me of that free indie game about commiting suicide. Dammit, that got real hard, but never made you want to throw the computer out of the window.

My favourite review of this included the line “I have the power of prophesy. In a few years time, Terry Cavanagh will be asked ‘Are you Terry Cavanagh?’, which he will answer yes to. The same person will ask ‘As in VVVVVV Tery Cavanagh?’, which Terry will also answer yes to. Terry will then be punched in the face, followed by the comment ‘That’s for making a bastardly hard game’”.

Can’t wait for Craig to see that jibe though :P
