Gravity mechanics need a bit of work. The snail tends to stick to random edges and that can get you flying off in random directions. (For example, climbing a set of boxes shaped like :. from the right side, if you press left+up you will stick to a box on its right edge, but if you release left while holding up, you will "fall" off the box towards the left - not good considering you just released "left". Unintuitive and confusing.)
An alternative is not flying around but holding still, but the "hide in shell" move is bugged as well - you cannot simply hold "down" (or whichever way happens to be down, see above) while standing still - you have to release all keys and only press "down", which takes too long in most cases.
Those said, it's a very fun game and I love the exploration/items aspect. I'll give it a 5/5 unless I get another gravity boss fight.

So, I just found a Helix fragment that was in a secret room, that was in a secret room, that was in a secret room, that was in snail town.
Yep, I have no life for typing that, do I?

Protip: This is one of those games where playing on Easy first is nothing to be ashamed of. Especially if you're only here for the badges.

@BossRush I can get to sun snail with no damage. I just can't figure him out, the only reason I got past him in the main game was because I could tank him, Giga Snail is easy as pie.

If you're suffering from laggy controls, that's something I complained to her about a while ago - and it's reassuring to hear it's become a common problem for everyone, and not just my copy of Firefox. Even when I've disabled all of my add-ons, it still responds poorly to keyboard input. I've switched to Chrome, and it is VASTLY better than Firefox. But if you get the weird bug like I did - where you can jump and fire, but cannot move/aim - then you'll need to use the Adobe Flash plugin, and disable the built-in Chrome plugin. Google "chrome disable flash version" and click the first link for instructions how to do so. And for the expert players, if you want to complete the platforming experience, and use a gamepad instead of the keyboard (Flash does not support gamepad input) google "JoyToKey" and install it - it remaps gamepad input to keyboard keys so you can play Flash games online with your gamepad instead.

Nice to see the increased traffic and commentary on this excellent game.
But I have to say, I really admire auriplane's patience in politely explaining to multiple players how to fix "problems" they've complained about (and possibly rated her game unfairly because of) when those problems are *clearly addressed* in the description.
If your screen is cut-off, you don't like the controls, you can't find the "Hard" mode, or you are losing your saved games, please read it!

it took me a combined 10 attempts to beat the Final Boss in story mode. Then I run into Boss Rush and kick it on first try. How does that even work!? Awesome game, loved it! 5/5

You can win every realtime action game without getting hurt, my main problam are propably the space snail controls. I keep accidently falling through the wall, which makes every damn monster respawn.

The late zones in the game are annoying and far too difficult. I can beat them of course, but losing 5hearts of life in as much as 10 seconds regardless of how careful you are. Also the space snail controls are a bit stupid, because they completely break your perception of ingame-physics.

Heh, beat moon snail right after encountering him, that was pretty easy. I had the most trouble with the damned cube since I for some reason never noticed toggle. >_<
