  1. Umm... it sure is interesting, but I am not 100% sure I understand what is going on.

  4. Love the style! X to jump, Z to shoot

  5. I accidentally jumped into/through one of the white directions block (with the arrows/X/Z) and now Neko has fallen off the screen into a white abyss. Pressing Z makes the numbers at the bottom corning go down. (Not sure what the numbers are, actually.) Uh... help??

    Oops. Correction to the correction! Bottom "corning" = "corner"

  8. I've collected "BIT U" and one treasure box is very high that I can't reach!

    To (Jessica) - I'm not sure where you are exactly but try to press x twice to double jump - and the number at the corner is the "ammo" you have and you can shoot it from the tail by pressing z

  9. Not enough English to understand the story, or the people you talk to.
    You can shoot 4 ways, climb ladders & stairs, crouch & double tap to run & double jump.
    I killed the boss & finished the game, but never got enough letters to spell any thing.

    I didn't get all the letters, but I got enough to see that they spell out BitSummitMMXIV. Also, I discovered that if you shoot downward while jumping you get a boost to your jump depending on how soon you start shooting. If you start shooting downward immediately after jumping you get quite a boost. I got that treasure box that Belz couldn't reach that way. (It contains an m.)

  12. In case anyone's wondering the end title page translates roughly to:

    Thanks for playing today. The game doesn't end here. It's still under extensive development. Please look forward to it's completion!

  13. Can't read Japanese. Can't figure it out. That loong paragraph at the beginning is probably important to playing, but...ah well.
