frustrating
even for the intended retro look, sprites and animations were an eyesore.
controls were terrible. luckily we could customize them.
i disagree with other reviewers that the control was awkward. once i fixed your wretched (and i mean REALLY stupid..what were you thinking..??) default controls, control was fine.
difficulty wasn't high. i don't think you understand what difficulty means. you just artificially inflated the difficulty by having long survival sequences punctuated by a start-over-from-beginning at the slightest mistake.. and random timing on puzzles that made it near impossible to get through without some serious luck on your side.
difficulty means you need to think a bit or work on your timing. it doesn't mean you need absurd luck and patience. that's just frustration and bad game design.
making this passable would take more work than it would be worth. but i can see a lot of effort went into this, so i will allow you to have 6 points.
