Hey The Game Is Not Starting...

I know this is beta but, i cant even climb ladders in germany stage. Lacking even this very basic form of testing is ridiculous.

Hey man, I know you don't understand the basics of posting a review. Basically, you need to be constructive. If you don't understand something, ask a question.

You are not supposed to climb the ladders bro, they are simply sprites in the background. Use jump, please. Lacking even this very basic form of common sense is ridiculous.

Controls?
