Beat it 100% :D Someone commented that the gravity controls make it too difficult, but I want to assure you that while it does seem hard at first, a couple of minutes of practice makes it easier to play. The gravity jump is the most fun part of the game!

Yeah the gravity controls are a mindfuck at first, but they're not difficult once you adjust your brain to how they work. I also think it's the best part of the game, hsl, as it is pretty unique. |

I just got the gravity controls, and holy crap, this is trippy. Awesome trippy. Mind you, the game is awesome in general. Love the music. Now I need to find the rapid fire...

Auri, this is awesome! And in only a couple months, too! I beat Space Box without Rapid Fire, because I'm that hardcore. Working my way through the area with gears/radial saws now. Music is, as expected, kickin' rad. The Metroid homage is obvious (and apperciated) but the early jumping 'blob' creatures remind me of the low-level mobs in Zelda 2. Conscious inspiration, or coincidence? |

Auri have you considered sending an email to someone at Kotaku about your game? Occasionally they have articles about flash games and they have a LOT of readers so if you're looking for more exposure it wouldn't hurt. |

It was on Kotaku.au last week. I haven't really done any advertising, apart from mentioning it on a few sites where I'm a member (like here). I'm not too comfortable with self-promotion to people I don't know. On the other hand, it's been online for less than two weeks and has over a million plays already :-D

I thought recently that games are too much of a waste of time. I want to spend time in such a way that I get some benefit. |

I thought about that too, man. I play games and waste my time, although at the same moment I could earn, for example. So I decided to try my hand at sports betting. I started by looking for a bookmaker, so I found top betting sites in Zambia. This is very convenient when the best sites with reviews from other users are collected in one place. |
