can i please just jump with W or the up arrow key? it would just control so much easier. the platforming parts are by far the worst part of the game, the controls are simply awful

First, if you're going to use circular objects for platforming (aka the trees/bushes), PLEASE don't put the exact same objects in the foreground just for decoration. I fell to my death so many times because there's no difference between the two.
Second, "Restart Checkpoint" feels completely useless as it doesn't adjust the timer. In other words, if I'm going for a Time Challenge and I make any mistakes, I have to completely restart the level in order to get back lost time. On levels with longer timers, this means I have be near-perfect for ~3 minutes.

I really liked the concept of this game (as with all channel 4 games). I adored the artwork and the ability to make my own character; my puzzle solving brain enjoyed the death cards and I was in the mood for a game that 'makes-you-think' (if taken seriously some of those questions were quite tricky).
Unfortunately I think this game may have tried to appeal to too many different sorts of gamers at once. While meditating on whether someone should be allowed to hold the power of life or death over another person I didn't appreciate constantly repeating level that i had figured out HOW to complete after the second try but couldn't quite get my fingers and timing right for. While some of this may be due to lack of practice (I prefer puzzles over platforms), there were certainly some sections where jumps etc were hard to judge.

Promising game but the flaws ruin it. Control response sucks, time challenges are frustrating at best and rage-inducing more often than not, I do not use Facebook and do not want to be directed there for anything, and now the Death Cards game on the first spirit level will not load. How did this get badged?

Hello Kongregate. Yes, The End is slow...and painful. But it packs graphics, physics, and multiplayer gaming all into a single package. It's slow, but so is the line for a roller coaster.

The philosophical questions and dominoes-Othello-hybrid game-thing don't QUITE make up for the fact that as a platformer this is pretty bad. I think the character I made is cute, which is why it's so painful to watch her fall into spikes 4,000 times in a row because I didn't hit Space in the pixel you wanted me to.

I enjoy the creativity in this game. The guardians are creepy and amazing at the same time. The platforming is wonderful and so are the physics. This is a game that makes you feel cold and creeped out and I'm pretty sure that's what you were going for. Mission Accomplished

A very interesting game, though I am quite unsure about your choice of famous thinkers. There are some like Indira Ghandi who I am not sure why are here at all (it was her father who is renowned as thinker and a world-changing person), there are some like Freud, whose theories are considered stupid by many scientists (though his WAY of thinking was very important and influencing, not necessarily the THINGS he thought...) and there are some people I'd really like to see here (like Jesus, Socrates, Leonardo da Vinci and so on).

If I had more patience I might have given this a 5/5 for creativity but the levels load soooo slowly and it makes you lose interest because of it.

Didn't know it was multiplayer. Spent the first 10 minutes trying to figure out why i couldn't talk to all the "npcs". LOL

I hate games where space is jump, and UP is enter door or something useless like that. Can I please have the option to switch them around?

The game itself is really, really good. I like the idea of designing my character. Answering questions and learning what type I am is also fantastic! But I have one problem. My progress keeps vanishing. I've started all over again three times already, bot on Kong and official site. So, I won't find out what's going to be in the End.

wow. never thought I'd find a kong game where i spent more time watching loading screens then actually playing the game itself. i stand corrected now. 1/5.

This has an interesting premise, though buggy gameplay becomes stagnant. I found myself playing more to answer and discuss philosophical questions than for enjoyment.

Fun concept. Controls are pretty sticky though. Doesn't play smooth. And keeps asking you to leave Kongregate. This would be a four star if the controls were better and there was less "would you like to go to another site?" As is, two stars.

The death cards are perhaps the best part of the game. I am constantly encountering bugs that freeze the game up, forcing me to restart from the last checkpoint or just quit. I choose the latter.

If you stand idle until your character looks at the screen, then tap left and right in time, you will do a funky dance. Also, your hairstyle will flip.

Unfortunately boring gameplay with pretty pictures and interesting words is still boring gameplay. Didn't like this game at all.

This game being slow has NOTHING to do with how powerful your computer is. I have a 6-core 3.2GHz machine with 4 GB of RAM. There's no way it should be this shitty. There's also NO BLOODY REASON why the game world itself needs to be multiplayer hosted.

I gotta say this is one of the better games to come out in a long time, more so because of the combination of things in it, I can't give it a perfect score though because honestly the plateforming controls could use some work. It got very annoying to miss a jump when I had clearly hit Space at the right time or I didn't stop running when I had taken my finger off the key and I went of the edge. I love the questions and the mind mapping system that was used, seeing more of this sort of game would be a greta thing.
