The clown is dead.

yes The Joker is dead... Well , Heath Ledger is

ok?

it was alright, I didn't really get the story but it was alright to play.
The Clown...
... parcours (parkour?)

Doesn't make any sense

There just doesn't seem like any point to this. You either die from a fall, get to the bottom or run off the screen or get stuck at the bottom. None of these seem to affect anything. It just doesn't seem to have any purpose or meaning, and it's certainly not entertaining. Arsty doesn't mean empty, though considering how many games here I see that make that mistake I can see why you'd think so.

The clown...

...Is dead
...invades space
...is brave
...goes home
...doesn't give up

weird gameI could only find two rooms, and they both have the space invaders logo, is there a reason for that?

also if you go over to the exit, it goes a different color as if you could open the door, but you can't, and if you go past the door you go off the right screen and don't return is that a bug?

in summary: ok game.

vatsch responds:

if you found the two rooms, you also found

... resists, and ... riots. Makes it a total of 7 Endings. So you only have to find two more, to beat the game. Read the letters. They have a meaning.

The thing you describe isnt really a bug, but a thing I maybe should work over again. Thx a lot for playing and your feedback.

edit: Bye the way: The space invader logos are a hint to my next project, which will reflect this game engine and the atmosphere. The topic will be: Supression and (electronic) resistance.

Strange

I think i managed to find everything. Some of which i didn't expect. I don't think I understand the story. I found the second window by dying and then getting back up and running around wondering what the room was before finding the second room.

vatsch responds:

Did you get the end screen too? There is no definitive story behind the concept. The idea was, that the clown has many different choices, how he solves his situation. The "bug" you found, is something I could not fix yet. And to be honest, if someone jumps this high into a flat, he/she gone be hurt at least :). Thx for commenting!
