Taking a break from everything what's happening around, enjoying the game - that sounds like a plan. My thoughts are with you. metalcasket Moderator Staff Member Patreon Silver Patreon Gold Patreon Bronze May 24, 2010 11,065 1,342 113 Deepest Circle, Hel #9 metalcasket, Mar 31, 2020 If it ain't perfection, it's the closest thing to it. Dude, das ist enorm! Basically, to all the puzzleheads out there, you might wanna skip this. This is a platformer, true and true. Reflexes will be tested, patience will be tested, your OCD will be tested (this is the definition of a completionist's dream, with having to get (and find!) all the gems in a level)...oh man, it's a thing of beauty. I realize I'm typing this when you (@macplash) most likely are already playing it, but no, no...this is absolutely something else.

Great looking platformer with a nice different way of moving with the bombs. ste86uk Well-Known Member May 9, 2012 6,774 1,003 113 #13 ste86uk, Apr 1, 2020 Timed levels or not? psj3809 Moderator Jan 13, 2011 12,971 722 113 England #14 psj3809, Apr 1, 2020 Nah no times. Granted I’ve only done the first one !! But it’s like a traditional platformer but you don’t jump you use bombs to go higher. Very clever worth picking up for sure ste86uk likes this. ioso Well-Known Member Jul 6, 2017 123 27 28 Male #15 ioso, Apr 1, 2020 iCloud Sync? macplash Well-Known Member Apr 17, 2014 2,645 1,103 113 Male 3D artist Munich, Germany #16 macplash, Apr 1, 2020 A week ago in the game’s thread in upcoming games category I said I couldn’t pick my favorite Nitrome’s game. Well, after a few minutes with Bomb Chicken I’m willing to scratch that statement. I mean, how is that even possible to grab the perfection that any Nitrome game is and bring it to another level? And yet, in Nitrome they know how. And they can. Sure, I had expectations. I’ve played every single Nitrome’s game. They’re on my Top 3 developers list for a reason. I made an assumption this is going to be perfect - again. But what I’ve experienced so far is beyond that! The pixel art is on another level. Animations? OMG! Controls are spot on - responsive, smooth, natural. This can’t be any better! Wow, just wow! Is there a way to see if I missed something? If I collected everything, found every secret? Or is the only secret in each level the golden chest? Level selection screen is kinda scarce for details. Also, once I finish the level and collect the gems, they’re no longer there when replaying it. I’d love to make some videos, so is my only option to reset the progress and start over? ste86uk likes this. metalcasket Moderator Staff Member Patreon Silver Patreon Gold Patreon Bronze May 24, 2010 11,065 1,342 113 Deepest Circle, Hel #17 metalcasket, Apr 1, 2020 You can tell when you've collected everything in a level by what I believe is a blue gem that fills the circle that represents each level in the selection screen. Also, yeah, if you've collected certain items (and I believe finished off the stage), they're cleared from the stage itself. Makes it much easier to go back and replay levels to collect what you've missed or start from the beginning once you've died. Also, yeah, Nitrome has outdone themselves. This is way beyond the best thing they've ever done. I'm in love with it. macplash Well-Known Member Apr 17, 2014 2,645 1,103 113 Male 3D artist Munich, Germany #18 macplash, Apr 1, 2020 Right, right! Also I already found second golden chest in tutorial level, which makes it two so my theory about one golden chest per level was wrong. But even on tutorial level, the gem is still green instead of blue (like I have e.g. on 2nd level). So there’s still more? Oh man, I love this game even more.

Took me a second to get a hang of the controls, but they are perfect. Once I got the hang of it I went back and played the tutorial level again to see if I missing anything. Found all the chests to make my gem blue. That last one is very clever, but can't fool me haha. Fantastic buy for anyone who loves platformers. macplash likes this.
