I was getting into it...
I was making some decent progress through the game, but I got to the part on stage 2, where the barrels dropped down in pairs, like Donkey Kong. I figured that the best way to do this was to jump them in pairs and them make a beeline for the exit after the second pair. The only problem was that whenever I got to the exit, a falling barrel would strike me, thus killing off my chances of making it to the next level.
On occasion I thought that I'd actually made it, but there was another catch - sometimes I didn't get hit, as the guy stayed together, but the death jingle played, +1 went on the score and I had to restart the level. That was frustrating, to say the least.
With the programming of where the barrels land, perhaps have a little "safe zone" after them, so you can definitely get to the end of the stage, because otherwise it's just annoying. Perhaps a little more blood and gore in the stages, especially when you die - some of these would produce different results, such as dismemberment for the saw blades and charred crispy chicken for the flame jets, for example.
You're getting there with the drawing style, but it still needs a little more work - making the guy fall apart as he dies seems a little weird, since you're trying to make people believe that they are him, i.e. human.
