If it was not an imitation would be a good game.
Reviews for "Limbo Flash"
Remaking stuff you like in flash/in your own style is great practice, and I think you did a pretty good job of it. That said, I agree with the other commenters that you probably shouldn't post your practice work as a submission when it's a remake of someone else's content. As a player I'd rather see what you can do on your own. Cool ambient soundtrack though.
This has great potential. The artwork shows that you put a lot of effort into it. However, you don't give any explanation of how to play the game. I can't get past the tree with the axe stuck into it. And the game was so dark that at first I thought it was a piece of fried chicken attached to the axe. Brighten the game just a bit-it doesn't have to be technicolor-and tell us the controls!

thanks for the tips, the controls can be seen in the options "CONTROL" in the start menu.
I know this was just a practice work for you but it's way too short to be called a game - even as a demo. Your background 'music' is way to low even with my volume set all the way up. Your graphics aren't all that bad (I do dig the monochrome).
I think you would have been better off doing your own thing rather than try to mimic Limbo. That's probably going to get you many more negative reviews!
As far as some people complaining about the menu not being in English - blah, don't worry about that. So long as it's Portuguese, Spanish, French or German I think most people can figure it out.
It looks like you have some talent, but Please....do your own thing.
i do not know what i just did
but i did not just play a game
it was just a bunch of jumping and seeing kids killing themselves
seriously, what were you thinking?
try to add a story line, add some goals, add a theme, or a message to send to people, add a CHALLANGE
maybe then it will be a game worth at least 1 star.
