the last section of the last level is the most unfair section in the history of gaming
WHAT TO DO
BLUESCREEN
dog out more like pain out
trash
brubruh
Fun but frustratingly difficult. It’s kind of like Maddy Thorson & Noel Berry’s Celeste that way, but with a totally different vibe.
Animation and music are super good but I don’t think I’ll be able to get past dance for me.exe because my platforming skills are super rusty right now.
good game like always
genuinely an epic game, i first played this on Coolmath Games and i didn't know this was on here.
me too
I had NO IDEA it was there.
brilliant execution!
why is the first level so hard?
bruh what do you mean
try useing arrow keys and W next time?
Scaffold.exe is stupidly hard, it's kaizo.
this game is really epic PLUS the art is super cool!
I'm stuck on the first level with the wall jump thingie. Please help me.
SAme >.<
was about to start malding but i beat it lets gooooo
Î really liked this game, it was good fun to play, but i found it to be even more fun to go through the stages-folder and mess around with the "level editor" and the data. Also i crashed the game like 10 times while doing so, but that's on me :D
Finnaly beat it. It was a very fun game and I really liked the ending screen.
i like this old school design :)
Love this game! I wanna see a sequel called "Tricky Keys 98" w/better graphics and SNES-styled music plus an actual shutdown screen w/shutdown sound at the end! Wanna do that sometime?
I am stuck on gemini.exe
same.
currently stuck on fleet.exe and boy ain't this hard as hell xD
BRO I HATE FLEET I CANT JUMP HIGH ENOUGH OFF THE PAPER AIRPLANES
ok actually turns out walljumping is the amswer
Tricky Keys (Gameplay Walkthrought)
no thanks
Team bugulons games are always so polished off, especially pixel wise. Very beautiful game and a great idea
this game might be fun but some of it's levels are completely unfair (like centrifuge) because it's just pure luck you happen to get up on the platform
?? Centrifuge is super easy, how is it luck based?
fun game really like the idea!
replace the letter n in ''sarn''
by the letter v
fnf fans when they see a person named Julia (if you replace the J with a P, the U with an I, the L with a C and the I with an O, and then remove the A, it's Pico, so it's a fnf reference)
hard
cool
ITS TOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO HAAAARDDDD
i beated the game
what is in the 2 locked folders at the start?
gemini is soooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooo hard i need help (also im stuck in it since 1 hour)

Bro this is like the worlds hardest game
First i'd like to start with criticism and what this game sucks at.
1. Just kidding
2. Yeah it's pretty good
it's 2am and I'm crying at how difficult this is
you good now bro?
after a year I have finally recovered
glad to know man
fun fact: I punched my screen.
thanks, i needed to know that, i was abt to look it up on google
i almost did that too but i need my laptop for work
What's the name of the protagonist
Ebby would be a good one
LIke this game so much! the only problem is in the last level, i have to edit some tiles to able to finish the level.
other then that is awesome!
No you don't it just requires a TON of timing. I spent about a quater of my time playing this game trying to figure it out.
i never expect people reply in this comment. thank you for your opinion though!
Your welcome? Ig? Do you want to see how to beat the last level without editing?
hm.. if you want too
Alright, give me a few days to record and upload and i'll post a link. I have a busy schedule, but i'll try.
