About the jumps in the later levels Thread - Little Trus Man

I'm loving the game, and really want to see how it ends, but I'm starting to wonder if it's possible for me. There's difficulty curves, and then there's unrealistic expectations! I'm talking about the maximum distance jumps in some of the later levels, where they're underneath other pieces of ground, so you can't use blocks. The first one I think I ran into was inthe beginning of 5-5, and I spent a lot of time trying to find another way around because I assumed the jump to be impossible and that I wasn't meant to go that way. That I managed to pull it off and realized that I could was more of a fluke than anything. The margin of error is so thin, and there doesn't seem to be much visual difference between "not close enough to the edge" and "just right". I'm on 6-2, I think, and I'm spending an inordinate amount of time trying to clear the jumps at the start so that I can work on the parts that require more thought. Very frustrating.

Any advice? Is this working as intended? Will I ever see what happens with that poor boy and is dog?!

Like I said, I love the game. Some of the artwork alone made me want to get it from when I first saw it (on steam greenlight, I think). But yeesh, the jumps. I'd hate to give up on ever completing it.

Incidentally, the title cards giving the names of the chapters that I see posted around - are they supposed to appear in the actual game? Because for me, they do not.

Hi there !
Please forgive us for not answering right away.
Concerning the jumps, what you are refering to are what we like to call "perfect jumps" And yes, they are intentionnal. We understand that it can be frustrating at some point, as some perfect jumps can juste make you start all over again, but we wanted to add some difficulty the more you advance in the game, as the player is getting better at the game. A beginner would have quite a hard time passing those levels you are in now I believe ! Just for your information, all the levels were thoroughly tested and were finished in God mode (by collecting all the bones).
If we could give you some advice in order to pass those perfect jumps, try to really define the point where LTM is still on the edge and when he falls, you will see that he can actually stand quite far on "one foot". And you should be able to better evaluate the moment where you should jump. One of our designer almost never fails a perfect jump
May I ask if you passed all the previous levels having the God Mode Certification?

Anyways thanks a LOT for the feedback, we really appreciate that and take it into account.
Feel free to post here again we will be more vigilant in the future. And let us know where you are in the game

PS: Concerning the cards with LTM announcing the chapters, they were intended for marketing purpose only and do not appear in the game. However they are linked with the feelings LTM would have at different moments in his quests. But if you are interested in having those posters free of text, just ask

Well I suppose I can take some comfort in knowing that it's designed to be a ballbuster, heh. I guess I'll just have to try harder. I did not complete all the previous levels with god mode. I'm afraid that's a little beyond my platforming skills!

Thanks for the response.

No problem Thanks to you for buying the game !
We will post some gameplay videos to help out the community in achieving God Mode Certification on the most difficult levels.
Keep on going !
