Whomever reviews this has to take into account the time it was submitted. It was programmed alright and it wasnt too bad

problem

after 122 levels it went glitchy

booooooooorrrrriiiiiiiing...

this was fun...for 3 seconds.

Not so good

this was really pointless. dropping a spike on a stickman, oh my god so fun...not really...sorry....try to make a better game that has more stuff to it than hjitting a guy with spikes. try again man, sorry but this was lame

Dissapointing because I see no change

I have to say, I was very disappointed at this.
And this was because like you might already know, I played the original version of this game and gave it a fairly poor score. Now, I come to this version and I see next to no difference.
Graphics are the same as before, just a white background with a blob looking stickman and a badly drawn spike. I noticed you did make the animation a little smoother but I am disappointed that you didn't use the remake as an opportunity to improve the graphics; the only graphics is the stickman and spike and there is just so much you could add like detail and a background.
Sound is the same, the sound is the best element of the game but it is a little too relaxed for what should be a 'fast-paced' game and you should be able to change music. Again, you kept this aspect the same.
Game play is what really let the game down though, and it's just a shame because it should have been its best aspect. The game play is exactly like before - click a mouse to drop a spike on a stick man. It's just too simplistic; and not even in a good way, I'll be frank with you - the game is pretty boring and gets repetitive too quickly. I am again disappointed to see no evidence of any improvement in gameplay, since that's what most people criticised your game for before. Allow us to drop multiple spikes at a time, add cool sound effects when the spike crushes the man, add power-ups and maybe even time trial levels where you have to kill a certain number of stickmen within a certain number of time.
Overall I'd say a massive disappointment, especially as someone who saw the original and sees no improvement. This game has good potential and there are so many things you could have added, you didn't really focus on what was important.
