I've seen a few "Tiny" platformers, tiniest this, and tiniest that. The thing it, the people make them small, but not complex; hence, the full-feature miniaturized adventure platformer, Pixelworld.
Your goal: Escape. How? Find the exit, though you will need to gather all 4 powerups (run, swim, high-jump, and fly) to do it.
This game features acceleration movement, moving platforms, spring blocks, spring platforms, reverse-gravity blocks, swimming, motions trails (find the unlock), mirrored levels (find it in a special room), and a nice checkpoint system.
Gameplay is non-linear, feel free to roam the little world of about 20 rooms; it will last you a little while.
Best of all, it is opensource! Feel free to learn, or use. Just give a little in return and point people this way.

I like all the features,and you don't even drag the game down with clutter.It's also has a nice length.Perhaps a true fullscreen?
Very difficult, but that was rather cool. I wonder if anyone has played through the entire thing. Besides you DF. Pretty cool otherwise. I wouldn't want to rate though, I know it'll ruin your rating. Just know that I WANT to give you a 9/10.

Woh, this is an oldie ain't it? I spent some time on this, awesome that a full-featured Metroidvania could be crammed into such small screen space. I managed to get through without run, and I think I sequence broke by getting fly before swim...but the game didn't get pissed or anything. That diagonal blue block section does kinda suck without run, though. Fun game all in all, it'd get a 10 if it had music or sound effects.
But a 9/10 is still really, really good!
I hope you realize that you are one of the best programers on this site. This game is amazing!
Very nice work! 10/10
it had every element a good platformer needs!
