Hello, Well, imho, I love the fact that you automaticly run with the arrow keys. I mean who doesn't run in the game? In side-scrollers, I must say, I always prefer to run than just normally walk, especially if there is something like time bonus's or something. I really liked the fact. But of course I am not everybody...
