first off, ditch the punching, make it so you kill ink enemies with the stylus, mario enemies with jumps, etc. Second, every now and then it gets an error and you have to start the level over again. Very annoying. Third, make the enemies stand out more. I often dont know they're there till I'm half dead. Last, extra lives. Its really annoying to die at some part then have to breeze through the easy start to die at the annoying part again. Its not bad, but I liked the old versions better.

When I was in one of the rooms of cave of ordeals ("The answer is...") I was erasing an enemy and got:
Code:

Sup.
Play the three-level demo here.
Lemme know what you think.

Here's what I think of it: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=oWoPBYp0km8
Anyway, there should be some sort of sound for when you jump, and one of your feet hitting the ground when you run.
RE: Dimension Shift - A Nintendo Parody - Jesse - 09-01-2009
Whoa man. Video, fancy.
I really appreciate seeing people play my games because it helps me fine tune it and see what parts are too challenging or frustrating, or spice up the parts that feel boring. Thanks for taking your time to play and record it.
There is a walking sound in the current version (unreleased), but I'll be sure to add a jumping sound as well.
RE: Dimension Shift - Vipershark - 09-01-2009
The game feels solid enough.
I can't really find any problems with it.
