I was really surprised about the fall damage too. I mean... who puts fall damage in a platforming game? 

You must not have played Prince of Persia (2D), Deadlight, Flashback, Donkey Kong, etc.  Hell, I think I have a few XBLA games with falling damage (besides Deadlight) but I can't remember off the top of my head.  It's nothing new to platformers with a more serious tone.  With that said, I'm about to download the demo!  Hope it doesn't suck!

Wut? 

 

Well, I hate fall damage in 2d platformers, it just makes the game more annoying to me. Where you could take shorcuts to save time you suddenly can't. Also, it really wasn't that much of a leap needed to die in the game, I can be okay with it if it is from a high height, but I were just jumping down from a chandelier and I died. It depleted all my life, the max should be 50% from such a height if you ask me.
