Ok, I actually started a couple of hours ago, but I only like to post when I have something to show, so here we are :)
been wanting to make this game for a while so I already have the story pretty much planned out, the general idea is you play as the last piece of working software in an infected computer, and its up to you to clear out the viruses etc making life hard for the system and track down the dreaded black hat who is rumored to be the cause.
the software you play as happens to be a piece of compression software, so the only way to contain malware is to compress it, hard with your hammer :D
compressed software will drop chunks of code, which you can trade for better armour and weapons, not sure how I'll work thatr into the computer metaphor yet but I dont think its a major concern :)

you'll need to install the unity webplayer to check it out
only running left and right at the moment, the camera isnt perfect but it will do for now I guess.
jumping coming soon! :)

Just thought I would mention that your javascript link is busted.
You cannot use a double quote inside a double quote without escaping it.
And since you're in single-quotes, you still cannot. Use string concatenation to create your link, or just skip the javascript altogether and use a normal a href link.
also...sorry I cannot check out your game since its not Linux friendly.
Good luck on it though!

new build time :D
this one took me alot of time as I spent waaaay too long hunting a bug that made the player start levels in the wrong place. hopefully there wont be any more like that, as a few would kill any chance of me finishing in time.

I like the jumping =p
anyhoo, its new build times :D
also I just tested out how easy it is to add weapon upgrades:
I think I should really push weapon size to ginormo sword proportions if I can :D

new build times! (^-^)
added more stuff including health, coin dropping and also some very simple enemy AI

ya, the animation is a little clunky especially for one that takes over I agree, my plan is to make this the 'attack from crouch' and have faster attacks for standing and jumping.
also I see what you mean about the pogoness of the jumping now, I'll fix that ^_^;
