Awesome chill game.  some of the navigation feels clunky. Like some holes you think you can crawl into but can't 

Thanks for your comment!

love the game. reminds me of seiklus and commander keen. enjoyd being a caterpillar. however... I cannot finish the "main level." stuck at 71/72. I can see the final leaf—it's at the upper far right in a tree cubby, but I can't jump high enough or string anywhere to get it. must have missed something, or I'm not doing it right. help or a hint would be appreciated

Think you for the comment and for buying the game! Sorry, there was a bug in the last update where I adjusted the hit boxes for some of the tree branches and it caused that spot to be unreachable. I'll fix it in the next update.

oh, that makes sense. apologies for reporting the bug here then, I could've been more discreet about it. take your time with the update. I'm looking forward to digging into the bonus levels

Thanks, I'm glad you still enjoyed the game. I'll be working on updates for my games/apps after I release my current project this month. Were you able to figure out how to unlock the bonus levels?

actually... no! I just assumed I had to finish the game. Hmm...

The update is up now. I fixed the problem with the leaf. I also made it so it displays how to unlock bonus levels at the bottom of the Bonus Levels menu.
