FallOver!

s to jump
a to get up from a fall
r to reset the level
esc to go back to the main menu

This fun, short game fills my heart with joy. From it's synthesized ragtime music, to it's lovable nameless bowler hat wearing protagonist, it's a THOROUGHLY satisfying little game!

The only thing I can kinda dislike about it is that the blocks take the physics and make it wild and unpredictable, something that's not good when you're trying to get all the coins, but this game puts a smile on my face so wide I barely even mind.

Try it, now.

I joyquit after level three. I love the game, but I can't play it very well.

Oh, wow. I wasn't expecting it to be so short. It was fun while it lasted, at least.

Neat game, way too short but made up for it with everything else.

This game desperately needs some expansion. It's so wonderfully simple, and the scope for fun and challenge is enormous.

Also, finest music I've heard in a game.

According to a good friend of mine, the music source is actually a chip-version of "Plastic Jesus".

But yeah, it really needs expansion!

I was slipping at such a slight angle during the last level, and I used up all my stands. :o

Ohmygodthisisawesome. I just love pulling off a perfect somersault and promptly falling over. Seriously, apart from the length, this game is perfect. Bugger!

I told myself, "This game HAS to have some kind of scoring mechanism that gives you titles at the end based on your collection rate."  And, "It must involve phrases such as 'dapper' and 'gentleman' and 'dapper gentleman'."

I was entirely disappointed.

I fell over and then landed back on my feet, but it won't let me continue moving, even though I'm right side up.  I have to get back up.  Which is weird considering the fact that I'm up right already.

Must be a glitch. I've pulled off backflips before and returned to my feet, and I've rolled off ledges.
