I... hate... you...

The second world, though, was even more annoying than the first. Unless I was missing something again, you need to roll into that walking machine to make it walk through a few screens so you can use it as a platform to jump from. That would be fine, except every time I tried the walker would collapse in on itself on the last screen and I’d have to reset and go back to the beginning to try again.

Eventually, I just got so annoyed that I exited the game and deleted it. No regrets so far, I have to say.

Still no clue.

I’m still completely stuck on the same screen I was on yesterday. It looks like the water should turn that cog down the bottom, but nothing happens. I’m really not sure what’s going on with this. I should just delete the game, really, given how much it’s annoying me, but I just want to get past this one damn screen.

Fucked if I know.

Got no idea what to do now, but I’m stick not quite ready to delete it. It’s horrendously annoying and I don’t think it’s as well-designed as the graphics make it look, but it’s not bad. And it really is just a pleasure to look at. If I could just work out what I’m missing…

But, unfortunately, there’s a problem. The problem is that it checkpoints you on every screen, regardless of whether or not you’ve cleared that screen already. So you can clear a screen, then realise you need a bit of a run up to make a jump on the next screen, roll back to the previous screen, fall to your doom and – argh! – it puts you back on the left of the screen, meaning you have do the that screen again.

It's lovely, but I had to complete this screen far too many times for it to remain fun.

You can spend ages trying to make it past a tricky set of obstacles, only to have to do them again because you rolled back a little too far. It’s awfully annoying. I tried the “level select” option in the menu because I thought that would let me select the screen I wanted to be on, assuming it would show all my cleared screens, but no, it turns out the game consists of two levels, each featuring of multiple screens. When I went back into the level I was on, it had put me back on the first screen again.

I almost deleted the game then and there, but I’m going to give it another go, maybe, to see if I was just being incredibly stupid last night. I fear, however, that I’ve lost all my progress. Infuriating.
