Yes, groovy. I'm a teenage girl and I used the word groovy un-ironically. That's the best way I can describe this game. It's a really quick little game. The type you can play for a few minutes in the waiting room or while standing in line at starbucks or something. The music is sweet, the colors really pop, and the gameplay is quick and smooth. It has a bit of a super meat boy vibe to it; it's hard, like really really hard. You're die in the first three rooms many times, I promise you. But that's okay, because like Super Meat Boy, the game wastes no time throwing you right back into the action. You don't ever get frustrated or angry at at. You simply can choose to keep playing, or don't. It's a fun game, but I don't feel like I HAVE to keep playing right now. I can just put it down and pick it up later. Okay, I rambled long enough. The game is free. If you're using an IPhone, I recommend downloading it immediately. You won't regret it, and you can always delete it later if you don't like it for whatever reason.

I freaking love this game, I love pretty much all the Nitrome games, my favorites probably being Fault Line, Colourblind, Ditto, and changeType(). However, I digress. The newest update to this is fantastic, as it gives each character a unique trait [at the cost of 200 coins each].However, when I started one game with Upgraded Rosy Cheeks Boy to try and grind coins, I ended up moving into Room 2 and fell through the floor since it hadn't loaded yet, causing Rosy to fall endlessly in darkness [with the occasional room trying and failing to load before he transitioned]. While it did boost my score, the game crashed, so no doubt it didn't save it.The glitch may have been at the fault of my iPod, since it tends to be slow. It didn't really bug me much anyway, cause it was pretty cool. Regardless, I'm loving the game more than before.

An arcade platformer title where you'll need fast wits to guide your sprite across to the next room and so on, your main goal is simple - beat your last highscore, like every generic arcade title.Unless you're one to horde coins for hours to unlock different character sprites that have no special skills or anything along the lines, you'll find yourself pretty bored within 15 minutes after the realization of the lack of evolution and sense of progression the game provides.The sprites, in general, looks great and the animations and backgrounds are not bad too. Visually, this game is a piece of retro eye candy, however - other than the lack of gameplay it provides there arise other issues. The control scheme is annoying to use and totally unresponsive at times and hit detections on most actors seem pretty off. All in all, a good FREE way to pass 10 or 15 minutes.

I generally love Nitrome games, and this one has fun initial gameplay. Like all Nitrome games, the pixel art is terrific and beautifully animated, which is probably why I bothered to play at all. Once you unlock the first character or two, however, it quickly becomes apparent that the game never evolves or adds anything new. Unlike other games (including other Nitrome titles), no new powers, abilities, enemies, challenges, or score multipliers are added to incentivize you to keep going. Instead you're left with a handful of subtly varied rooms to grind through in order to unlock other character skins, which still don't add anything new to the gameplay. I love Nitrome as much as the next player, but overall this game feels half-baked. There's a great foundation in place, but beyond that, very little else exists to keep players coming back.
