  Opening sequence was Very Well Done!
  I would have rated it higher if it was placed as an Arcade Game. As a puzzle I think that it falls short.
  I see this SO OFTEN here in the puzzle section. MANY of the game software is listed as a Puzzle but should be listed as Arcade. (remember pac-man?)
  A good example would be 'Tower of Hanoi' (A puzzle). The creator puts the puzzle in front of you and you just have to solve it....period.
  The entire puzzle is on the screen.
  You don't have to shoot or dodge things.
  There is no learning curve. In other words, you don't have to play over and over to learn the correct sequence of events.
  You don't have to remember when to click or release the mouse button, etc.
  There is no timing involved.
  There are no hidden or secret things to discover.
  Software like the Tower of Hanoe, Kemrang, Dave or Jills Trails, Armadillo Run, Crazy Machines, etc. are Puzzles. And Very Good Puzzles.
  
  I wouldn't have railed so much but I guess that I'm just getting tired of coming to the Puzzle section and just finding another Arcade Game created with Game Maker.
  
  Phew! Now that that is out of my system:)
  I just wanted to say that Your Work is Very Well Done. It's easy to see that you put a lot of work into your project. Good luck with this and any future projects.

  The walls at first don´t kill you... but keep playing!!! You´ll soon see why... As for SoulSnatcher on the hi scores, there is also Xot, Icuurd and a few more members of the GMC who pop up as the default names... It´s just my way of paying respect to some of the people who have helped me...

  This was cool. Firstly I actually expected that collisions with walls will cause death :P
  Also, why default name for highscores is Soulsnatcher? :)

  Hey NG. The level select doesn't seem to be working. I tried clicking all the numbers, and for good measure, pressed all the number keys on my keyboard.. Hope you get it fixed soon :]
