Top stuff. Only one life lost? Did you play on bread and water, or POKE it? If the latter, did you BREAK the loader to do so?

At last I had some time to sit down and play this properly. What can I say, it's simply great, not only the silky smooth multicolour scrolling tech and nice pixelart but the gameplay as well. The game design is also superb. For instance; I love how it introduces the 'switch-character' mechanic, the two are placed in separate rooms so when you've collected everything with the first character and got nowhere else to go, you look at the other room, notice the other character and try the fire-button, no instructions needed, just great! Had a lot of fun completing this. Great job!

Edit: Oh and also the pacing was excellent, having some more action-oriented levels after a particularly taxing puzzle level. Helps with the motivation.
