Ya level 9 its literally perfectly timed so you can't make a mistake and you have to go through the maze and then back. Certainly designed to be a real challenge. It's getting me to the point where I'm working on angled movement based on pressing down and left or right to save time around corners.
Considering the level of graphic emulation, all of the sprites are distinct enough for the player to interpret what everything is. Poor guy though. Looks like he lost his head running through all those bombs. Great work!

Yeah I noticed that his "bandana" kinda looked like no head later, lol. Glad you've given it a go. I know all the levels are beatable since I've done it many times now, but perhaps I could have given a few more seconds on level 5 and 9 😁

I think the timing is appropriate. It forces the player to have to be extremely accurate. I just hope that Level 9 is at the end or at least near the end so that its difficulty is comparable to the player's progression. It's very well timed in my opinion.

Gah I couldn't get past 9, I was getting too flustered, haha. Maybe I'll try again tomorrow. But it's a really cool little game, nice job!

Thanks for giving it a go! Sorry level 9 sounds especially difficult. It's meant to get more difficult but perhaps I could have provided a couple more seconds!
