I tried the game - nicely polished (except for the initial settings screen, which had the ok button off the window so I had to scroll?). I especially liked the music.

However, I agree that jumping off ropes might be good, plus I'd prefer the speed to be upped a bit (but that's mainly personal preference because I'm an adrenaline junkie). Oh, and the grunts with the footsteps made the lead character sound like a dirty old man.

The game itself ran fine on my monster system, like you'd expect - the alpha blending seemed to pose no speed problem (but that's on a Radeon 9800 Pro). Nice polish throughout.
