A final suggestion. The game works for me, but some people have mentioned issues with running due to the need for three keys. Perhaps change it so that double tapping a direction can also make you run, and running works until the move key is released.
We've just updated the game (v1.0.2), now the wall jumping and the keyboard input lags should be improved. Please tell us if you're still having issues. And sorry for any inconvenience! Thanks! =)

the wall jump is still terribly difficult. especially in the level where you get the ability. getting a pin fired up the pooper and having to master a new skill just to end the level just screams ragequitting to me. The technique of switching arrows during wall jump is pretty epicly difficult. An automated jump to the other side would be preferable. and changing the color of the spikes to stand out more against the surroundings would be a big help. now you get one up the butt half the time without realizing you had one coming right at you through those fences.
Other than that big fan of sir pork.

So, basically, it's K.O.L.M. with a pig and laggy controls. Even in low quality, I'm finding it impossible and I think there are fundamental design problems, too: for example, it seems to be impossible to turn around to face in the opposite direction without moving a little. That makes all kinds of things really hard to judge. Sort the controls out and it'll be a winner.

Oh, the timer for the speedrun has also to be fixed after the last update, since it now starts from the last checkpoint you die at.

1.01: Still terribly unresponsive. The issue appears to occur when you hit another button. To specify if you hit shift + arrow + jump, one of those three will not activate. There is a .2 or so second delay before keys will register after being hit in quick succession. Playing it on low quality does not fix this. There is some carry over with the internet explorer 'continuous movement' bug, that might be the cause. It might be a simple programming fix, and it might not. Too bad. It seemed like a good game otherwise.

Even with low quality settings I am still having control problems. Either I hit the jump button (space or up, tried using them both) or I let go of the buttons and continue to move. Makes the game near impossible to play.

Couldn't have made wall jumping ANY more difficult? Bugged to HELL. Otherwise the game is pretty good, the story is interesting, the puzzles and platforming is challenging, but with the keys being this scrambled and jumping bugging everywhere one just can't enjoy the game to its full potential.

Ok, two extra suggestions on the late features. About wall jump, I noticed that it only sticks to the wall when the pig is starting its descending trajectory, when it should stick as soon as it touches it. About double jump, it seems not to work if you don't jump the first time, so you can't air jump by simply dropping from a batch of ground.

Great game, I didn't play it pre-update, so I don't know the control issues other players were experiencing, but they seemed to work fine (wall jump was a little tricky and frustrating at times, but not so much that I disliked the game). 5/5

The control system towards the end of the game (the butcher levels) is impossible... the hog will jump, walk or run whenever he wants... its a shame because the game has so much potential. If you fix this let me know please.

Stage 5 appears to be impossible on Hardcore mode -- not that it's difficult, but because there's a block in the upper-right corner which you can't jump over, preventing you from progressing further.

Fantastic game! I read that the controls were bad but it seems they must have been fixed because I didn't have any problems. Nicely programmed, Great graphics, and a interesting story. The cut scenes really made this game special. I also found the difficulty to be just right. I really enjoy this game! 5/5

fix wall jump. its bloody atrocious and super unresponsive. having to learn to use it whilst dodging a flying spike isn't fair either

Does this game not auto-save? i played until the last level and the browser closed and all progress was lost...maybe it's just me?

In a game where split second timing is required you simply cant have issue with the jumping, unfortunately there is, sometimes it doesnt even move when you try to jump, sometimes you just slide off, it had potential but a platformer where the control system is flawed is never going to work.

This looked great, I had my hopes up for a great story, but the controls are AWFUL. What's wrong with WASD?? At least give us the options to choose our own keys.

2/5 game would be great, but in arcade controlling the hero is crucial. The game is lagging even with low quality and controls behave odd, for example jumping comes with delay after pushing space bar. It ruins whole game.

Wow, walljump mechanics are bad. You have to time it so precisely. Developer: Try making it so that, if you were hanging on the wall anytime in the last 1/2 second, you can walljump. That way, if the player pressed the direction button a bit too early, they still get the intended action. (And thanks for adding W/up for jump)

The lag has certainly reduced. The issue with disintegrating platforms remains, as does the slight run lag, but outside of these, the game is notably less laggy. Not perfect, but I can see a clear reduction.

Well, well, well... the game is good, but, come on ! the control is horrible ! Sometime, the pig jumped 1 second after i press the space bar, or he's just moving too far or not enough... it's just implayable for the later level.

Enjoyable level design, but terrible jumping controls. That pig should jump instantly when a button is pressed. Speaking of which, there is no good reason to use the shift and space bar for your controls in a game like this.

I think the biggest issue for me as running away from spikes as a text bubble appears, I either die trying to read it and only get some of the message, or skip it and feel like I may have missed some important information.
Pause the game with a text bubble or just omit them from the dangerous parts of the maps.

took me 2 hours to finish the butcher and the forest, love this game the final lvl of the butcher is really hard when u gotta push the red button everytime u died :(

Good game. Had no problems with controls myself but the level times are bugged. It counts from the last checkpoint and not from the start of the level.

It wants to be a good game, but it just isn't. I can do all the actions necessary to get through the harder levels, but the controls just are not allowing me. Fix the controls and you have a good game.

in this game, you're just a pig in a slaughterhouse, Live with it *troll*
controls easy, despite complaints, but you need to duplicate the leap and others such as the arrows (or just away from WASD), for example, on the SPACE does not always work. good reflex arcade, the majority of deaths still due to inexperience and vinyl arms, I have not noticed lag. I have great amuse Achievement: "Beat all levels without duing", LOL

We're working on an update! It will probably resolve the movement issues! It will be live soon! Thanks all for the feedback! =)

so jumping over and over again from floating platforms while dodging flying spikes is great if the controls allow one to do such a thing... the game started out great.... then just became tedious toward the end..... will not finish....

A precision platformer in the I Wanna Be The Guy mould with a jump button that doesn't respond roughly one time in ten? That's true sadism right there. I think I've died 50 times on that vertical tunnel at the start of level 15 because Mr Bree just doesn't go when I tell him to. I might come back to this game once I've replaced the desktop keyboard and my bedroom window.

Love the game, but I strongly suggest to add checkpoints; if you want to mantain the difficulty, add an hardcore mode and state that won't have them. An easier mode with checkpoints will allow people to practice the level in chunks and eventually try in one session in hardcore. Also definitely add customizable controls, since it's definitely likely that people want to use up to jump, me included. Also give more margin when jumping from the edges and when detecting collisions from saws. Still 5/5 from me

To all guys complaining about lag and controls: i had the same problem with firefox but with safari it ran pretty smooth. Maybe it's your browser?
