Important to me.

I’ve played this game over from start to finish, including orange levels, developers commentary, zero death run, glitches, secret room, etc, probably went through from start to finish over 100 times since this game came out years ago. Unfortunately now on iPhone 15 pro max the game doesn’t seem to run properly anymore. Pause button doesn’t work and can cause a total game freeze. Things are just off now. Hopefully this can be fixed

I have a question for the developer (spoilers I guess?)

I found the orange area and got stuck on the final jump before the elevator bit. After 20 tries I eventually got it, breezed through the elevator puzzle and then the drop, leading me to a room with a singular lightbulb in it. Here, I got the ability to pause the game, letting me: 1) mute the music. 2) return back to the beginning of the orange area/start of the game. And 3) credits. My question is —> does this mean I beat the game, or is there more secrets / content?

Superb

This game is a perfect example of originality, not in the game itself but everything surrounding it that makes you feel a certain way. I loved every minute Phillip your a genius, I got okay? After loving this so much. Years later this game still stands the test of time, it just has that special something you can’t put your finger on, so stylish and addictive, originality is so hard to find …what is it that makes a game or a film so riveting? Whatever it is this has it in spades.

What the heck

There was an impossible level and now I can’t win and plus the one with the stairs is just hard enough

Kamibox knocks it out of the park… as usual.

Kamibox. Enough said. I would love to know where the ideas for these games come from. This game is so unique, and I love the story or plot that you literally follow. It’s such an interesting concept. Do you or have you ever dabbled in console game development, or is there anything on steam, or are these only mobile games? I seriously love everything you put out. My favorite is a toss up between squaredance, supertype, and zip zap. I would absolutely love to see what you would do with an RPG. I’ve no doubt you’re unique stylistic choices, story, and playability would be a smash! Keep the games rolling! So good.
