i dunno where to start with this one man

had to try out every key on the keyboard before i learnt that z was the button to progress through the menu and jump. i think i skipped most of the first checkpoint in the forest (first) area after finding a button that played a TF2 sound, then i went to the second checkpoint, and now i don't actually think i can progress anywhere.

i also just learnt that the music doesn't loop properly either while i was typing this part

this just feels exactly like the scratch version besides a higher framerate, removal of the cutscene before the main menu, a more boring text sequence before the removed cutscene. both versions have very delayed input on the main menu for some reason, and i wanna bet that loading screen isn't even a real loading screen. i'd know because i've done this before on the same engine, which is SCRATCH, BY THE WAY.

dolan controls like ass, i'm not sure how you're supposed to walljump up there when he can't even run that fast. i don't see any use for the up and down camera movements when you hold down the up and down arrow keys, because the button in the part i was stuck on was too high even for that bastard camera.

i was also reading the comments of the scratch version and apparently your advice for getting through this tall as fuck wall is to "time it". i'm not sure what crazy fucking stunt you want me to do in order to time it right but i can't make the crescent moon hair lookin ass jump any higher than he already does. could be cause of the weird collision (for example every right angle wall makes dolan think its a slope at the very corner)

also why do you spell it "wall rikashay"? it's ricochet. i'm not sure how you fucked it up twice and never bothered once to spellcheck it.

i don't know why people are uploading scratch projects to newgrounds. it's not even an engine capable of doing full fledged games because of its limited nature, probably because it was designed for kids who didn't know how to code. there's other visual based programming languages out there you can use if you can't find a way to code using text and a guide. if you can't figure that out either, i think you should look into making a comic or something instead with these characters.

the more i look at dolan the more i think his two eyes are connected and that they look like a mouth constantly screaming in agony.

all in all, yeah game blows man. should fix the control scheme. and find an actual engine too. trust me, something like gamemaker might be something you'll thank yourself for later instead of snapping legos together for the next 5 years. i used the site for about the same timeframe, and let me tell you. not. worth it.

negot1ations responds:

I kinda agree with this review, the game was released in under a month, and was never intended for a Newgrounds audience, so this game must feel very low quality and out of place compared to other games on the site. I recently replayed this game about a week ago, and I don't really like the mechanics of the game as it could get really tedious, and a few other things. Scratch isn't really my thing anymore and it's a good thing I left, as I've made better creations using other platforms
