Now with Medals and a Scoreboard!
KEYS:
* Press Z to jump!
* Press K for Easy Mode! (Scoreboard disabled)
* Press M to toggle Mute!
I set out to make a short, slightly challenging, little low-fi platformer. It's very short (15 minutes at most), not all that challenging, and certainly low-fi.
If you do get stuck, you can press the K key on your keyboard to switch on Easy Mode. Once Easy Mode is turned on, it can't be turned off again.
INFO:
This is my first game. It's not all that great and has plenty of issues, which is what I expected. I spent a total of two weeks on it, a few hours a day. Most of that time was trying to learn how to use StencylWorks. Since I'm not a programmer by any stretch of the imagination, StencylWorks was my best bet for getting anything done.
Admittedly, 90% of what I love about Just Another Day is the music, provided by Peter Gresser.
IMPORTANT:
* If you find your framerate very slow, try clicking the 'pop-out' link above the game, to move it to its own window.
* If you still can't hit Z after clicking away the ad, just click the flash again.
FRONT PAGE:
Holy cow (or is that bull), front page! Thank you all for the positive reviews!
UPDATES:
11-02-12: Medals and a Scoreboard? I've sold out... At least I didn't make the game easier. Changed the graphic for the "helper" blocks, because some people were offended. Compressed the music to make the filesize smaller, please listen to the original quality on Peter Gresser's page.
30-01-12: Made the fadein/out on death a little faster, and added a few more helper blocks.

omg fnally won!
That was epic, I honestly feel like I have skill. Thanks to buzboprud, you have to jump to speed up and that really helped. Thank God for endless lives you put in (imagine if you had to restart after 3 deaths?) Just wondering, what inspired a game like this? I feel like it's Mario.
I grew up with a lot of pretty hardcore platformers, like Super Mario Bros and all the Mega Man games. With the tricky-to-master platformers having come back in fashion lately, thanks to things like N+ and Super Meat Boy, I thought I'd try my hand at one. I'm glad you liked it!

Great for a first, nice atmosphere!
BUT, what some have already said, it's really frustrating to get through. The jump may be the main problem, it kind of feels 'stiff', like it should have a longer reach. I managed to get the 'trick' of gaining speed by falling on cliffs, but it still demanded 100% accuracy(then I played chicken mode and it was quite a breeze)...
Other than that, great graphics and music. I look forward for a 'sequel'! (or something along the lines, it's an intesting game conceptwise)

Saving the love of your life everyday
So, finding true love and saving them from slavery is just another day for Muu? :U
Anyway, -superb- game. Made it all the way through without too much difficulty, and the sloping jumps were fun to figure out. Pixel-perfect platformers are my kind of game. I loved the Mario reference as well (who also saves... yeah, you know).
I was curious the whole time about Easy mode, so after I beat it, I replayed to see what easy mode did. I was expecting colors all over the place, but instead there were chickens in boxes. I can't decide which I like better. :3

Fun
It was a little challenging but overall it was easy enough and very entertaining.

Nice
It's a very simple, fun game, which I really enjoyed, and I liked the music as well. However after the blue character is beamed up, the jump after the flag I CANNOT get, it's IMPOSSIBLE!!! It's where the flag is on a small platform, which curves downward to a slippery slope then a spike pit, then to another small steep slope. No matter what I do I can't make that jump. I really would have liked to make it to the end, to see what happened to the two of them. But overall, great job :)
Thank you. ^..^ I'm glad you liked it. I'm surprised you didn't turn on Easy Mode?
I have a video up of my playthrough (I do die a fair amount), but it shows that all the jumps are very possible.
