PyRO

http://groundzerogamez.com

Pyro is a difficult puzzle platformer where you play the role of a child stuck in his own world. He was sent to this place because he suffered horrible side effects.

He fears the flame as when he touches it, he becomes the fire. But in order to escape, he must put all of his fears behind him.

The game features 3d graphics, 30 levels of increasing difficulty, a level editor and nice music.

Axioms:

A burnt child dreads the fire.

Where there's smoke, there's fire.

  I enjoyed this entry quite a lot, but the only thing that really started bothering me was that in the later levels, the gameplay became more reliant on wall-jumping, but that was the one thing that wasn't too tight in this game... But anyway, it was still fun. Nice job man.

  Yeah, cactus' game is played from a full 3d perspective. Almost like 3d planet gravity in some levels.

  I posted about it on the Game Maker Games forum... Hopefully it'll get reviewed.

  Actually, no, not at all, cactus' game is played around a globe-like effect, almost like planet gravity. This game only uses two simple codes to give it the rotating effect. Anyways, thanks for playing.

  Well, after you get to about level 10, maybe 8, the gameplay picks up and you really have move. It gets pretty tough. Anyways, thanks for the comment and rating!

  Cool presentation: having the world rotate and jump as you move and jump is a unique effect that I can't recall seeing elsewhere; it adds a very unique atmosphere to the game. Props for that. On the negative side, the gameplay is slow and a little dry-- I'd personally double, or maybe even triple, the player's movement speed.
