I've just picked up this game but just off the starting level, from atmospheric design to monsters you can tell the game was made with a lot of love. Definitely scratches that retro itch of the games of old . Really if you like retro platformers at all(The Fantastic Adventures of Dizzy, Adventure Island, Mario, Sonic, Kirby and you can) then you should try going for nuts with this squirrel. Keep up the lovely work!

Game description says controller, mouse, and keyboard work, but they don't. You cannot use the controller buttons to even restart the game if you die. You have to get up, walk to back to the pc, and click the button at your desk. The controller also supports only d-pad, the developer didn't even both to map the joysticks to movement. That's like 10 minutes work in any game engine. Lazy.

On my quest to play good squirrel games I found this one. Made me have very mixed feelings. Good nuts: - Great pixel graphics - Good music - Colorful levels full of enemies and details - Funny dialogues and level descriptions - Price is lower than actual 16-bit games Not very good nuts: - Squirrel sprites are just free assets, everything else is probably the same - Can't control jump height - Levels are too tight...
