2070 is my highest score so far. Keep coming back to this game now and then :-)

Don't even remember exactly, but the game itself is quite ok, although thematic, but there are pictures in frames on the walls which contain pretty gruesome and intense pictures of events that actually happened, but still, it felt 'out of place' for me, not sure if WW2 imagery was in there, but themes are related to wars and the brutal things happening during wars.
Pretty much all the games of Hammergames have a lot of propaganda in them, which for me devaluates the games themselves.
It's perfectly ok if you lack the sense of humor, the patience and/or the skill to get through this game and I admit, it's immensely frustrating in some parts, but writing this long post just to express this seems a bit excessive to me.
Ferociter always makes solid games. Arguably this one has a completely different style, but the gameplay is impeccable as always. It's all about training yourself to get used to the controls and the 'unintuitive' hitbox, as you call it.
What do you mean, enemies can fly off-screen? Noone can fly off the top, and everyone can use wrap-around at the side edges. If anything, you have an advantage because you drop in from above when you died.
Edit: Ah yeah, you mean when the viewport is scrolling. That's a bit annoying indeed. Would be nice to have some sort of indicator at the top of the screen as well, similar to the sides.
Ok, I'm not cut out for this, it is indeed friggin' hard. Your game is really well-made and it plays perfectly. The idea is also well thought-through. However, the sheer difficulty and the lack of checkpoints is really putting me off. Everytime I made it through a pixel-perfect jump I felt happy, but then having to do it again and again and again feels unnecessarily frustrating.
But, anyway, well done on the game itself!
Ugh and only now I read that you explicitly have to press the 'save' button to really save progress ... damnit. Ah well, will have to live without beating the last boss then :-(
Btw, even though it was a frustrating game for me, still like it, it did feel like an accomplishment beating bosses and levels. So, I think the balance is quite good. Nicely done!
