Dangerous Level

In Brief

Dangerous Level is another game made by Laush Dmitriy Sergeevich who has previously given us all those test your knowledge games back in April and more recently Round Mars, 3D Gravity Rockets, Defense to Death and yesterdays Flying Propeller.

The Game

It's a fast paced 2D casual platformer with some puzzle elements. Of the four Steam reviews HERE, 75% were negative and the only positive review spent no more than 20 minutes playing and said Прикольная, всем советую which translated say's ''Cool, I advise everyone''. You can see a video of game play via the Steam store page HERE

The first several levels are easy and introduce you to the games controls and puzzle elements, which include the left and right arrow keys to move left or right and the up arrow key to jump. The A and D keys are used in conjunction with the movement keys to complete the puzzle elements i.e push boxes left or right. The graphics are monochrome and the music is repetitive. The aim of each level is to get to the portal, that is located in various parts of the level depending on how complex the level is. The game was made with the free version of Gamemaker Lite, which is evident because every level is stamped with ''Made with Gamemaker Lite''.

I found the game mildly challenging (you have to get your jumps just right once you get past the introductory levels if you are to survive).
