Bottom Line: Pretty but Not Fun

I really don't have a lot to say about Pumpkin Toes. Basically, it has really nicely-drawn graphics. Everything is brightly-colored, well-animated, and nicely-shaded. Practically everything else, though, it not particularly good, or even bad. My biggest complaint is how extremely unforgivingly difficult this game is. I still have not beaten it simply because I could not stand playing the third ice level over and over again with it's repetitive combat and next-to-impossible jumps. In fact, "repetitive" is a word that describes this game very well, even in the not-so-hard parts of the game. There are only 3 environments, only 3 types of common enemy, and only one very short guitar song per world that loops over and over.

To the creator: If you want to make a better platform game, take these points into consideration: More varied environments, more varied enemies, more interesting and less cheap combat, and longer and more varied songs. Also, I can understand if you want to make a game challenging, but forcing the player to restart an entire level after missing a nearly-impossible jump or getting hit once by a nigh-unavoidable attack is simply fake difficulty. Give the player a REAL challenge!
