<description><![CDATA[Robichris: I can assure you that is a false positive, we never bundled any of our software with malware of any sort and we regularly check for false positives so we can contact the antivirus companies to check the file with more detail and therefore see it's harmless. 

Could you point out which antivirus software you are using/triggered the false virus alert ? Thanks in advance !

Thanks everyone else for the positive comments and constructive criticism, it is greatly helpful !

Thanks Mike for your reply. For what it's worth I ended up really enjoying playing this game and I'm not really into platform games.  It's a pity that you  posted so late becasue the community appreciate it when the developer makes an appearance during the actual giveaway.  :)  Keep up the good work.  Maybe   make some changes as  suggested by the community them  see what the  community thinks again.  :)  Maybe add some  boss levels  just to break things up. :) ]]></description>

<description><![CDATA[I downloaded this yesterday and played for just a few minutes before I had to leave for the day.  It looks like an interesting game, and I will play it further, but I found the lack of information regarding the playing controls to be frustrating.  Yesterday, I did not have time to read the full review (and so did not look in all the folders). A link in the menu would be very helpful.  I am not a huge fan of using my keyboard and would prefer mousing controls. I also did not like that I was transported to the next level without warning as I didn't realize that I had not collected all of the bones necessary.  I look forward to playing more of this game and I'm sure that my children will enjoy it too =).  Thank you GGOTD for continuing to find games and thank you Whiterabbit for your always helpful information.

<description><![CDATA[Had no problems w/ installing or getting the game to run. I've only gotten through about 5 levels, but am enjoying the game. I'm partial to platform games,so I didn't really have any big issues w/ the controls. I agree w/ Brenda about not being able to see below me. Some games have the controls set up so that if the up or down arrow is pushed you can 'scroll' up and down a bit. Either that or some type of map option might help. Overall, I'm enjoying the game! Thanks:)]]></description>

<description><![CDATA[I keep getting this with both full version and even tried the demo version.

This application has failed to start because the application configuration is incorrect. 
    Reinstalling the application may fix this problem.



I tried the full version.  
I tried the demo version.  

My PC runs Windows XP,  I tried making a shortcut and changing 
the compatibility modes.  It keeps giving me that error.
I cannot get this program to run on my PC.  Sorry.
Any suggestions?  I still would like to try this game as it looks pretty fun.

Try changing the screen resolution.  Failing that don't ddelete the game and  post this problem in the forums.  There's a possibility that there is a compatibility issue with something you have running in the background.  Try Game Booster first, which shuts off  system/windows  programs that aren't necessary to run the game.  If that doesn't work try a clean boot.  (Drastic I know but it depends how much you fancy playing this game]]></description>

<description><![CDATA[Love it when GGAOTD gets these kinds of games. This one reminds me a bit of Henry Hatsworth, one of my favorite DS games.

Pros:

-Pretty nice retro style graphics, fitting to the type of game it is. I particularly like how the background's lighting changes between levels as if time was passing. It's a nice added touch.

-Tight controls. I never feel like the controls are why I've failed a jump. However, sometimes collision feels a bit strange.

-Good gameplay. The levels are pretty straightforward, but searching around for bones adds a bit of exploration to it. It can make the levels surprisingly deep and interesting.

-Level editor adds replayability. Haven't tried it yet, but an editor's always a plus and helps keep the players' interest.

-Multiple difficulty settings also add replayability and allow players of different skill levels to enjoy the game.

-Intro does a good job of explaining enemies, bones, springs, etc.

-Likeable main characters and story.

Cons:

-Graphics can feel a bit like they're just cut and pasted around.

-No widescreen options.

-Minor spelling and grammar issues.

-Game glitched once and wouldn't let me exit the first level (had to restart it to get through). I haven't been able to recreate this glitch, however.

Suggestions:

-Allow the player to map their own controls.

-Show what keys (for the predefined layouts) each action is mapped to somewhere in-game.

-Possibly make it so that when the player holds up or down for a second or two, the camera scrolls up or down, respectively. 

-Add a level select so players can return to previously completed levels without restarting the entire game.

-Make the level editor accessible from the game's main menu.

-Add some indication you're about to exit the level. I've exited accidentally before I was finished collecting bones.

Overall, it's an enjoyable, charming platformer with good controls (crucial to the genre, in my opinion). I personally like this game a lot. Thanks Neogen2 Creations and GGAOTD!

<description><![CDATA[I just ran the 1.1 patch on their site since already have the previous version,  first into the wrong folder then the correct one \ Games,  now a little cleanup to do and it does seem to run okay ,  really scrambles my desktop shortcuts after it exits though. haven't been able to get to the levels where the bugs were.

Maybe you should  download the giveaway version and  see if that works without scrambling your desktop shortcuts?]]></description>

<description><![CDATA[Got this game from the last time it was offered but downloaded it to get the updates. It's fun retro grabbing bones game. I created the shortcut to the manual and the levels editor also. This should be IN the game..It Needs a help file in the game. It is way over priced too.

Thanks GGOTD and Neogen2 Creations for the game and That Wabbit for the great review. 

@toris Thanks for "The game can be closed down by pressing ALT+F4"

Thanks for the feedback.  Delenn; Dreamball looks like a very good ball rolling game  that's simlar to Marble Madness.  There are loads of excellent Sky Roads clones to be found in the  forums,]]></description>
