Pretty sure you had that poor guy commit suicide at the end for being an ugly person, and then in the afterlife He still can't even get the cheerleader to talk to him...sad times

A depressing journey of self discovery that ends in suicide. Then, eternally trapped in a drab dreamworld, our "protagonist" seems to be doomed to exist in a state more lonely than pixelation...invisibility.

I <3 the meaning of this game, sometimes people just think more about other peoples standards rather than themselves, which is to be themselves. 5/5 and one question, are there alternate endings? cus i wanted to get the best one and decided to keep the girl in the 2 pixels part or is the door locked?

Great game Talha, the game was great and proved a deep matter for most people: Don't Change for Others, just be yourself and accept who you are because every one is made differently, none perfect. Change isnt always for the better, and if people cant accept who you are or if you dont live up to there standards, dont bother trying to change. Be Yourself. 5/5

Sorry to say, but where is the real Ode to the Pixel days??
The only reference I found was the Super Mario Bros Warp Zone :/
And I am Sorry too, but I didn't quite follow the story the same way you described it...
At last I thought he commited suicide and the fence and everything made me think of the very first TATU video
I liked the music though, and the gameplay mechanics were quite good
This game is not an ode to nostalgic games, Ode To Pixel Days has to meanings, 1- Pixel Days is the utopia Hans creates, and it would be the best thing ever if it worked. 2- Pixel days are our childhood and those days were great, we wouldn't have to be worried about anything. Thanks for playing.

the "no one matters - find yourself" suicide jump at the end was a bit of a downer. But I do think some kind of end-of-game acheivment for scaring off all the birds in the different levels would be cool.

What would have happened if I go up at the end ? Theres way a way to go on the roof. :c It's a great game and I give it a 5/5 but I don't want to play it twice >.<

I loved the subtlties of this game. The face designs in the wall at the start was my favourite. I also loved the Mario warp zone and the possible hint that your princess was in another castle.

The music of this game is just wonderful. And its story made me think a lot, too. I'll recommend this game to anyone I find.

I honestly want to love this game but the over abundance of switch puzzles and the struggle for insane speed and jumps makes it more unbearable then actual puberty.

Okay, everything was fine up until the point where the big me was trying to eat my soul. Anyone ele find that first part where it can hurt you to be a little surprising when you just get mauled by it?

If you wait until the end of the credits, it says "Hans will grow up. Be a random guy on a street. But the pain in his throat. It's going to stay for a while." Hans was trying to commit suicide all along. And the whole game (his "dream") was the in-between place you go before you die. The game was his struggle between life and death.

So lets recap what i just learned. If i'm ugly, there's nothing i can do to ever change that, so i should "explore myself" and then jump off of a building? good morals. I learned a lot today.

Interesting game, for sure. But I think I got a *much* more morbid message from this game. Hans is feeling dejected by his unpopularity. He dreams about making everyone equal in every form, he shrinks down. But he knows that can't happen, he begins to grow again. And then things got strange - he fights and defeats himself [Loss of hope]. And then he imagines himself flying...and jump off of a building [Action]. And then he is flashbacked to a black-and-white scene where you are shunned, again, by the girl you think you love. [Motive] My first thought went to, "Jesus, I think this kid just committed suicide."
Anyone else?
