not a lot of fun, but works. The graphics, sound and music are very nice

Neat idea.

It's quite a fun game to play, and the production values are quite high: nice graphic, music, sound effect, and the game play feels right.

The game itself is not that much new, so I'm not *that* motivated to climb very high, but the presence of a high score system allows me to track previous record. When you go higher, new things happen: good. Fits the theme well, of course.

Some complaints: the skellington wasn't used. There *were* installation instructions, but you're supposed to use a skellington-like layout and at least provide run_game.py.

Nice game, liked it :)

Decent game. Some of the hazards like the lightnings affected Hermes in strange ways, I think. Maybe they should had just killed him? Anyways, graphics are pretty nice and the music's not too bad either. These kinds of games have been seen a million times though, so I can't really see myself playing it in the future.

The sounds and music made this game for me. There were a couple glitches like sometimes a bird would shock you until you died instead of tossing you up higher, and occasionally a regular cloud would toss you higher and play the bird sound when you jumped on it.

Very well polished. I really liked the graphics and music, a master hand at work. :) I wasn't able to find any combos :(

Reminds me of SDLjump. Nice looka nd a bit of fun though.

4 3 3

oy! this one can get difficult quickly on you :)

Seems a little repetitive but very fun. I got up to 147 ft and died, I like how you can bounce off of the eagle things. Definitely seems like a fun little addicting game, maybe some more obstacles or something would have helped with adding more variety. Cool concept though.

Cute art!

Very nice combination of theme, graphics and music. I used to be addicted to Icy Tower, you know. :)

3 4 2

Nice little time-waster. :)

4 4 2

I didn't find any combos. Were they even implemented?

3 4 3

Cool little game! liked the art and polish

This game was very fun and challenging. It would be nice to have multiple lives, but otherwise no complaints!

Well done! This game was a lot of fun, and the graphics and look and feel were very good. I was impressed that you even had a high score table and adjustable keys -- very well packaged! The interaction with the eagles was a little odd, that seemed to be the least polished of the enemies, but still, it was a very fun game, and I enjoyed it quite a bit (I think my record was 157 ft). Still, you should have used the skellington -- I'm not going to vote to dq you for it, but it was explicitly part of the rules. Well done!

Pretty fun, with nice graphics. Sound got a little irritating after a while.

My #1 game in the Production category. Very nice looking graphics both in menu and ingame and a good implemented gameplay makes this one of the best games.

3 4 3

nice music. nice graphics. the game is somewhat redundant
my high score is: 154 ft :)

just another icy-tower clone..
it doesn't have the bumpiness of icy-tower which gave it all the fun..
also, too bad the readme isn't written too much - it could have helped some..

3 4 3

Very fun. great sounds and music.

5 5 4

A great little game. Finished, polished and really FUN!

4 4 3

Quite simple, but very smoothly implemented and surprisingly fun!

It would be more interesting if there were some achievable goal to reach at the top, though, instead of just going up forever. (Or maybe there is and I just haven't played enough to get there.)

3 4 4

It does indeed go up.

2 4 2

Well polished, kind of boring after awhile.

nice game. nice gfx and sounds. simple polished game. nice.

Nice stuff. The graphics are great, so is the audio, and you've elaborated on the basic concept
pretty well with the storm clouds, blowing clouds and birds. The Win32 version had a weird
crashing problem on my machine (crashed on the second time I started it, I guess it was because
of loading high scores), but the Python version ran just fine.

Nice game! Kept me busy for a longer time ;o)

Wow, what a simple concept and great execution (graphics, sound, programming...)! What a cool little game!

Loved the art work. Captured the greek look quite well.
Nice camera effect after player falls' down. Sound could be better.

fun game, try it! It has a great flow.

3 4 4

Nice graphics. Good use of theme!

3 5 4

I thought the game was very cute, and I loved the music.

5 4 5

My first thoughts are "ping-pong ball". Very clever. Love the sound effects.

5 5 3

Great fun for such a simple game. The arwork is really amazing, and the sound effects are
awesome as well. My current record is 117ft :) Great game

Very nice icy tower clone. I don't have anything really bad to say about it, a nicer background or something would help the production score. Graphics that are there are nice, but it doesn't seem complete on that front. The sound and music are perfect though :) I would have given exceptional production if there were more to look at. Unfortunately, this game doesn't innovate at all. But who needs innovation when you have excecution? I'll be pulling this one out every so often when I'm bored. I wouldn't mind seeing more types of clouds than you have though, maybe some longer ones. I've only gotten to around 50 ft so maybe you have more variety later on.

Very nice graphics, sounds and feeling. The gameplay if a bit flat.

Very nice IcyTower clone...I was sure someone is gonna do it, and you surprised me at how good you did it...Very good game...

4 4 3

Nice game, maybe it would have been a bit better if you had lives so that you can try a few time before going game over. I liked the music as well.

4 5 3

Excellent soundtrack and graphics. Gameplay is smooth and the random distribution of the clouds adds to replay value.

3 4 3

Fun sounds and music :)

Not much to say about this one... so I'm going to go for the really tiny thing and say: I couldn't use capitol letters on the scores. Only thing I could find wrong with the implementation.
