Sigh. Ok, I fixed it. try the link at the top again.

@Oriol, amusingly enough when I saw the title of this topic I laughed, I didn't know new games from you were that scary .

Great sounds and music, I especially like the different death quotes.
I do however have a couple of issues. First, when I first played the game the music was so loud I couldn't hear the game. I automatically hit pg down, and that worked to turn the volume down but it wasn't mentioned in the readme, also until i restarted the game I didn't seem to be able to use the arrows to move after turning down the volume, though I've fiddled with the volume sinse and not replicated the problem.

About the game itself, firstly I'd like a "get ready" sound before the start, sinse initially I'd died when I barely realized I was playing. fun for arcade weerdness, however again this suffers the problem many audiogames do of just chucking a bunch of random stuff at you as much as possible. It seems the falling objects falling sound plays waaaay before they hit the floor, meaning avoiding them seemed very based on luck sinse it wasn't always possible to tell what was falling and what had landed, quite apart from the higher background volume.
I think part of this was that the sterrio field didn't feel particularly well defined here, most things seemed to happen in a narrow band at the center of the field without using the extreme right or left for gameplay elements as much.

I'm all for difficult games, but I'd rather a game be difficult because I know what is going on and am learning reactions and judging the engine than just because I'm trying to understand a complex bunch of souns squashed together.

Then again of course, I've not played the sammy center game so I don't know if this is similar or not.

downloading it now

I like the game, but the sterrio field is uncomfertible for me because the sounds are to close together.
other than that, I wish I could pause the game, and plus, there needs to be a sonar sound when the enemie is in the center of my screen making it easy to avoid.
when I said uncomfertible, I ment the sound doesn't move from right to left and left to right.

Hello,
After playing for a while, I'd like to offer up some thoughts.
While I can see the idea behind wanting a center sound, at the same time I think it will make things a bit too easy. The thing is, the items are always tracking you, so it's more about reaction times in a way. Sometimes when the item is far away from you it's volume goes quiet but as it gets closer you will hear it get louder, but that's only if the item was righta cross the other side of he screen in th first place.
The game is not supposed to be easy. I can make it to level four or five on most runs now. You have to pay attention to where you are and yes, where the items are, jumping definitely helps more. Of course there are bound to be those very aggressive items that just won't leave you alone and you'll seem to get hit by them no matter what, but that could, in a way, be part of it.

Yes. Almost no logo can be skipped.

Hi!
Thanks everyone for the suggestions.
I have fixed the music volume, it will be a little lower by default, and I also mentioned it in the readme.

What else: The stereo field, the problem here is that since the enemies are chasing you, you will almost always hear them close to you. Maybe someone else will have a suggestion to make the game a little easier. SHould I make enemies slower? Should I add difficulty levels?
I'm not going to add a center sound. That's just not going to work, since you're supposed to avoid the enemies.
Also, perhaps I should make bonus items appear more often.

Here are the changes that I have for now, for the next version:
Bonus items are now a little more frequent
You now hear a ticking sound every second if you stand at the corners too long.
The pain sound no longer moves... I don't know why it did. I suck
mentioned music changing volume in the readme.

Hi Nick,
OK I will take your suggestions into consideration, but do not expect me to mke enemies spawn less, that's the whole nature of this game... I made them a little slower but they wil raise in difficulty with levels. And yes, that is true, the game is unbeatable, you need to play for as long as you can and boast about your score!
I will add speech options, and maybe a pause feature in the coming days.

I will not provide text to speech options for the simple reason that we won't need them once I record my voice files. I hope it doesn't cause too many issues while we don't have voice files.

Note that when I was mentioning the game's difficulty previously, I wasn't! suggesting a center sound, just better definition of what is going on.

Level 4 has been my best thus far, but as I said, I want difficulty via a hard game to judge, not difficulty because most sounds are centralized so that it's harder to tell what is where and because the game just throws an insane volume of stuff at you to the point you can't tell what is where.

I don't believe  it is specifically oriol's fault, many audiogames do this (troopanum was particularly bad).

Perhaps however the game should be a little more like blind swordsman and a little less like troopanum? that is what I mean regarding difficulty.

please make a setup file of the game rather than zip and add an automatic updates feature.
