Stop getting discouraged of death. You will die in this game constantly, and in the end, there will be nothing wrong about that. As ridiculous as this may seem, try to see each death as an opportunity; a chance to get better and farther than you got before. Think about how you can circumvent your actions and get a little bit closer to that door. After all, it isn't a mistake if you fall on a spike on the first level. It's a mistake if you fall on a spike on the first level ten times in a row.

First, the Dreaded SKID JUMP. I have seen plenty of comments cursing this action, from when the game released up to now, five years later. This is understandable, but you must master the SKID JUMP, not only for the later levels, but for the fact that it is your most useful jump, aside from the life-saving DOUBLE-JUMP. The SKID JUMP is the furthest, highest, and fastest jump in your moveset, and moves at an arc to avoid obstacles. As the game says, move in a direction, then press the opposite direction and the JUMP key simultaneously, immediately releasing the original direction in the process. Think of it as a fighting game combo: TAPleft-TAPright+S. Once practiced, this jump can make things much easier. I have also found that when moving to the left, Sir MoneySeize can skid even when both arrow keys are pushed, whereas you cannot achieve this in the opposite direction. If this is true for your keyboard as well, use this to possibly make the SKID JUMP easier.

Even with a 'measly' 921 coins, I feel that I need to give some advice that I have learned to those wishing to start this game, and may not be prepared for the journey ahead. WAY too long opinion posts incoming; I wrote this before finding out about a "1000 character limit".

I just want the medium achievement. I see you, orange switch, yet you elude me. So many times. I'm getting too old for these sorts of games. :P

It is of course important to remember that you do not need to collect every coin in a single play-through of a level... Many times have I died trying to get 2 coins which are pretty much un-collectable if you go for the other

for those of you looking for a challange, try beating lv12 only hoping on the moving platform once and not taking the upper path (it is possible I have done it 5 times

I got 1010 coins in my pocket, off to buy a new keyboard & go on a week vacation to de-stress & get my sanity back. I've COMPLETED many great hard platform games, Gem Cave Adventure, Zed, Meatboy X2, Weirdville, Pixel Quest: The Lost Idols, Toxic, Mario Ghosthouse to list a few, MoneySeizure I have to admit was the most challenging. Brilliant game, props to the game maker. 5*'s

The wall jump control is backwards of what is intuitive and the opposite of what is used on virtually every other game ever made. 2/5

I found the first secret level easily, since I like to explore and jump to silly places, but... Wtf? Are mortal people supposed to be able to beat a game like this? Holy shit.

Wow this game is so underappreciated. It's hard to find platformers with this many levels that are this well designed. It's frustrating but only because it's challenging. Only complaint is that you can't change the controls and it might get a lot better ratings if you could.

I love the tower metaphor. So many monuments; so many Ozymandiases. The game-play is maybe a bit frustrating, but I love the sentiment :).

After 1339 deaths I got the end of level 40 with 25 coins only to not realise the platform under the door is a breakable box and fall down...

Wow, I never could have believed I could ever get top 3 on BOTH leaderboards on a game...
I sure hope someone beats me!

@MarzZee: Keyboards have been around for ages, most people didn't use them (and especially not for games). Even before typewriters, the use of keys of a sort could be seen in pianos and junk.
And how exactly would a mouse work in this sort of twitch-based platformer?

This game deserves much more than 3.51! It's probably those noobs that get stuck on level one that keep rating 1! Shame on them!
