Very nice

The graphics and effects are intense I love the gameplay and game controls they really respond well and you made the game kind of like castlemania type and that was a plus, so a very nice platformer here Fun game indeed not to mention that the gameplay is fun and you can't go wrong with some nice and unique element style here and you really pushed the limits but anyways a nice game here I look forward to even more because it's games like this that really sparkle a very nice platformer here

ok I was lucky on the first play though got all the way to the boss. If level 4 what I think it is I looked around there for a 10 second then saw the answer. this boss is harder yet I figured out a plan.
I like the fact you have check points but the need for them till the end is minor for thse versions

I saw by your responses your working on full length game good luck.
Ok I'm going all out here since this is the latest one with a LIST of suggestions
Add P for Pause
More weapons
Enhance the combat system.
Sure things get a littler harder but if you do the above I feel you can scale up the difficulty more. I feel games where you zip all the way to the boss then spend all your time on the boss for that level lack that mojo. sure the first level should be easish but make it harder or get boring.
pus if you ramp up more the boss that takes a while to kill semes to to go with the flow of the game better.

Ok Contols i'm only going to cover pc sicne that what use.
WASD (this goes with my next suggestion) but I like the fact you can change the buttons.
Should make so people can use mouse to do attacks, even if you add guns it still works. If you ever decide to use a gun and ammo R for reload there is never any other choice (blame res evil)

Monster list Ok you can add more different type zombies.
Since you going with a horror theme goblins, Werewovles, ghost, demons,vampires, and mummies. also witchs could show up more often and drop various things other than gnomes, like dolls, goulies, gremlin, Imp or various little monster. Troll could be added too either as a small dropable or a big thing.

Oh I almost forgot character choice be able to play as guy or girl.

The boss in this one is significantly more difficult than on the other two games. The first two I beat without checkpoints, but this one would be nearly impossible, I feel.

is there a non holiday version?

Good, but the default controls are completely bizarre and you should definitely change them. (And advice for anyone playing the game -- DEFINITELY go in the options and change them or left arrow will open some menu, other arrows will do random other stuff, and so on, bizarre!)

But it still suffers from that rope-breaking bug/glitch. Hopped on that first rope -- yep went all to pieces.

Maybe if you make future games, consider omitting the rope parts. That's really the only thing bugged.
