Reviews for "Quick Sand"

Really? No hidden trophy or achievement for beating Lava Mode? That's kind of disappointing, given its huge difficulty ramp-up... hell, even Speedrun Mode only took me four tries to beat...

...here's the problem I had: once you introduce the 'portal' stages, things start to get a little finicky. I would occasionally go through a portal while also moving in a diagonal direction or even with any sort of momentum behind me, and I could clip right into or even through a wall and die. This was especially infuriating in one of the first levels that introduces you to the portal gimmick since it has you drop through a portal to get to the door, but if you drop down too quickly, you would clip through the floor and die. It took me more tries to beat that one level than it did to beat the entirety of Speedrun Mode and get the trophy for it.

The game as a whole? Fun; a good time-waster if you have twenty minutes to burn...
...Speedrun Mode? Strict, but still doable with practice. (Pro tip: use the Block Breaker move by holding down to fall faster and not cling to walls.)
Lava Mode? Easier than Speedrun for sure, since there's no time limit imposed upon you, but those portals, man... they can really screw you over if you're not careful.

Quite cool but very unforgiving, make a tiny mistake and restart

short fun time waster 5\5

WOW! When you put out No Time To Explain, I looked up your other games and all I found was that forgettable Dick About in a Spaceship but obviously I should have looked deeper! And to think, I found this not by searching your stuff but rather because it was one of the first games that came up when I searched "Trapped", because I was playing the Trapped series. And it's from 2010 for crying out loud, I should have found it. What's with that hair though. I was thinking you'd reused the sound effects from No Time but no, this came first. Small world. Or at least small flash game world. To come upon the same guy's work out of the massive set of stuff on Newgrounds, 2 different ways.

too easy
