Nice, think I'd replay it more if it were to scroll down as well. Or have something like a rising water level in there which isn't rigidly attached to the bottom of the screen, currently it's quite unforgiving if the wrong combination of hazards and platforms come along since you can't go back to wait/get around it. Speaking as a non video game designer.

This is a normal post That works.
I like it.

The one bit I found slightly unintuitive was the need to hold down the mouse button to move. Everything else was quick and easy to understand.

Also, it is usually worth adding the meta data for things like Twitter cards and Facebook graph, which you don't seem to have. Just having a Facebook button seems to be missing some potential traffic in sharing from places like Twitter. People are lazy. They like a pre-populated bit of text that tells people their score.

I just give them what I'm asked/paid for. It's for a targeted audience, was just sharing it the B3ta family!

This is a normal post Doesn't everything though, I mean it IS the best thing ever,
say all the people who can barely remember it and its many terrible features. See also: the 1980s

This is a normal post Never got the love for the 3310
But then I had a 3210 and that felt far more solidly built by comparison.

The 3310 was the one the cover kept falling off. I have no idea how it got a reputation for build quality.

This is a normal post Mine was solid
it was the battery, software and non existent memory that I had an issue with

This is a normal post For example, no "sent items" folder.
Want a record of what you said? Simply write your message, save it as a draft, go to your drafts folder and find and send the message which will then give it a nice little envelope icon. Oh yeah, your phone holds only about a dozen text messages, so you'd better delete some of those drafts if you want your inbox updated.

This is a normal post UK 3210s didn't come with the vibrate motor installed...
I bought one online, installed it (back when opening up mobile 'phones was trivial), built a DIY data cable utilising a pencil eraser and stripboard pins for the proprietary connector and unlocked the hidden menu option...

This is a normal post I much preferred my 6310i
Even if you did have to wedge a bit of paper in it to stop the battery pack falling off

This is a normal post That was the staff phone at Orange when I worked there.
Solid, dependable and they never seemed to develop faults. Unlike the 7210, or anything with Motorola printed on it.

Then there was the Ericsson T68, which in rare cases had a bug where it would stop picking up a signal; the solution was (not kidding) to drop it head first onto a table from about four inches up.

At one point I had a lovely T39 in cream. I wish I’d never sold it.

This is a normal post Still got a 6310i as a backup 'phone that I "inherited" from work years ago...
The original battery still outlasts my daily driver...

This is a normal post Couple of things
Twice now landed on a shelf, and he didn't jump again. Once was with the shelf right at the bottom of the screen, second time just edged onto a shelf at the very top of the jump.

The candles on top of the shelves are easily confused with collectables.

It'd be nice to be able to start a new game by pressing SPACE or something when playing with cursor keys, as having to use the mouse to re-start then jumping back on the keys is a nuisance.
