  • I love the style and execution of this game! As others have said, I think it's a bit too difficult. It would've been nice to have difficulty options (that could've been as simple as slowing down the speed of the line), but overall great job!
  • I love the concept and the presentation is great. This is a really cool and fun way to interpret the theme. However, it was just a bit too hard. the reaction time needed to course correct seemed harsh, especially for the first section. I would love if it had started easier and was better able to get me hooked into playing more.

I finished your game, really cool but i was thinking it will be (spoiler alert) a good ending :'(. Even this the visual and the sonors effects are really cool, it's pretty imersive. Well polished thx for this experience ;)

Very difficult, but I like a challenge! The checkpoints did help though - and I do like how generous they were with how close you had to be to activate them, since a few times I died just before one but still managed to respawn there. The graphics are awesome, I really like the heartbeat monitor look, and the postprocessing helps makes it even better. The BPM counter in the top right was nice as well, though it did reset even if you were at a checkpoint, so it mostly stayed around 0-10 for me :P. A great game regardless, I had fun! Well done!

A very interesting and addictive game. Comes to the topic of jam. Regarding the gameplay, I can say that I really liked it

This is pretty fun and very difficult. The amount of clicking started to hurt my finger after a while, maybe a control scheme of hold click to rise and release to fall would help but that might make it too easy or change the feel of the game too much.

Really interesting game, but it's too hard, the line seems unpredictable, at first, until you get used to it... I think it would help if the line started further away(so you get used to it before the first crash) and I think that it shouldn't be narrow tunnel for the whole game, or maybe the line should have  faster response... Anyway the sounds fit perfectly and the game visualy looks cool.
