    I purchased this game this morning and just had time to finish it this evening. Such an awesome game!
    I love the pixel work that went into the game, especially the save statue!
    I hope you make more sequels of this brave adventurer #
    By the way, did I happen to miss his name in the intro; what's the adventurers name?

    Quick update. After deleting and reinstalling the freeze and stutter disappeared. Great game!

    His name is Timmy and he was the star in several of his games, so there's a good chance you'll see Timmy again. :D

    Thanks! Glad you like the game.


    His name is Timmy. He previously showed up in my very first game Dangerous Dungeons, almost 4 years ago! The original game is still playable here http://www.stencyl.com/game/play/4102 but it's not a metroidvania though, but a level based platformer. It's pretty rough around the edges and hard as hell, because of my lack of game dev experience back then.

    Tiny Dangerous Dungeons is sort of a sequel to that game, and closer to what original Dangerous Dungeons was supposed to be, with huge dungeon to explore and new skills to unlock.


    I have some plans for new adventures for Timmy, either a complete remake of the first Dangerous Dungeons, or a new metroidvania platformer. Or both! We'll see.

    Level 6 of DD is diabolical!

    Edit: I take that back, the one with the big rolling ball is worse!

    Every time I think I'm about to be board with this game, a new game play method is introduced that renegades me.

    I love this game, but I'm getting frame drops on the iPhone 6 Plus. On the level with arrows at the top shooting left and right if I die, the game freezes.

    It's started to freeze on me every time I lose all my hearts, on a gray screen.

    It happens on the way to or from the final key. (Nope, I was wrong, it happens everywhere.)

    I found a cool thing to do, and I thought I had found a secret, but there was nothing over there.

    So I finally got my hands on a iPhone 6 Plus and ran through the game collecting all the items, and I didn't run into a single framerate or crash issue. Makes fixing them little problematic when I can't reproduce them.

    However some folks have been reporting me that deleting and reinstalling the game fixed their problems, so. If you have framerate drops or crashing, try doing that.

    Also make sure you don't have like 100+ different apps running on the background when playing the game.

    Like a few other people, game is pretty much broken for me at the minute due to the freeze when losing my final heart followed by the hanging grey screen. I've tried the delete reinstall which worked for a while, but when you get further into the game it happens again and I've no desire to keep doing that and losing progress. Im also finding sometimes that when I jump sideways, sometimes the sideways movement slows and I don't get the expected distance; i'm pretty sure this isn't down to my thumb slipping out of the button area. I'm loving the game by the way but these issues are so frustrating. I'm playing the latest version on iOS 8.3 on an iPhone 5. I've made sure I've got no other apps running in the background as well.

    I was having the same problems, deleting and reinstalling seems to have fixed it for me. Yay! I can finally go after Matt's impressive speed run time. ;)

    Just picked this up and I have to say I'm really enjoying every minute. Nice graphic style and smooth gameplay. No crashes or freezes so far, although there are some really weird framerate drops. iPhone 6 Plus using 8.4 beta if it helps.

    There is a small update out now that fixes some small issues like how you could sometimes jump through final boss' projectiles. I also further adjusted how dying and damage works so hope the game runs little better now.

    The game is now also available for Android on Google Play

    Took some time today to complete everything in the game, including collecting all fruit in one run and beating the game without saving. Such a fun little game.

    So what's next, Jussi?? :)
