I can't do other than joining others in the comment section, this is an awesome job, and even more impressive that you didn't use an engine. It's definately hard, I could get around 2.8k score but forgot to printscreen it, so damn xD The jumping feels a little bit weird, I saw my hp going down, but it was like 100 to 90 to 30 then dead, I assume there isn't a cooldown on getting damaged, so as long as I'm touching the cube I get the damage right? Other than this it's awesome, congrats!

In what way does your game fit the theme?
The gameplay is really basic yet extremely difficult. Prepare for GAME OVER spams by JavaScript alerts. (Apologies in advance)
PS: Post your Top Scores in the comments and I will add them on the next update.
Did you write all the code yourself and made all the assets from scratch?
Mostly by me but some parts of the code were from a tutorial and music is linked in the game page.

The music was SO GOOD! I loved how minimalistic the game design was, but I felt like the jumping was a bit unnatural. I can't create something this good with html+css+javascript+love though, so you definitely did really well. Thanks for sharing!
If you have the time, do you think you could try out our game as well? It would mean the world if you could rate it :D
5 star audio! ITS DIFFICLT! but a really unique take on the theme, nice innovation. Also those js messages... I also appreciate you made it without an engine!
DAMN IT'S HARD! This is as much focus I could have after about 10 minutes of playing again and again.
Absolutely AWESOME work! As all other comments mention, impressive job without an engine! Alsto the music fits perfect.
Congratulations!!!
BTW: I remember your Doom like shooting game with the flying skulls from the rewind jam. That made me spend hours playing too!
I couldn't go past the first jump and I wanted to keep trying, but frustration got me in the end...
the fact that you've done this without a game engine is great. The jumping is a little weird tho. Overall, good job!
You weren't kidding when you said prepare for a lot oof JavaSctipt alerts, haha. The game seems like its breaking a lot of game conventions and yet it's undeniable that difficult games like these are pretty addictive, like you're trying to prove that even though the game isn't fair you can still beat. Great job for making an unfair game like this and me wanting to try over and over again after every attempt! Oh, and yeah, pretty impressive that this was made with just js and html.
Simple and an easy game to understand and play. I have no idea how you made that game without a game engine, its hard i think. Reminds me of that dinosaur game when you have no internet, but i think this one a a bit more challenging. Awesome game. Good Job!
Making a static web based game with JavaScript is challenging. It's really cool to see! Great work, game is simple, yet addicting!
I can't believe you didn't use a game engine for this :O
-The gameplay is pretty fun the jumping is a little bit difficult to control at first but once you get used to it you enjoy the game even more I like that the cubes become faster and change position overtime it makes the game more challenging
-The art is simple yet fits the game well
-The UI is really good the shadowing behind the scoreboard ,the player hp and the score gives the UI a lot of depth and make it look better
-The audio is great I like the music one of the best that I have heard in this jam so far
In conclusion I am very very Impressed that you made this game without an engine yet it turned out to be this good, definitely Looking forward for more projects like this bro :D
Reminds me of that dinosaur game you get when you have no internet, very charming!
Hey hey ~
Very impressed that you made this in html+css+javascript, game dev without an engine just adds a whole 'nother layer of time to things.
I wish that the timing for jumping was a little bit less tight, and for the player to have an little animation so it's less of a snapping movement.
I think it's really cool what you've accomplished here, and again hats off to you for doing this in html+css because that sounds like a nightmare. Well done :)
Thank you for the wholesome feedback <3. It was definitely a nightmare to develop without a game engine but there is a first time for everything so I wanted to try it out. I agree with the animations and jump windows not being adequate enough but i would need to get better with js and css for that xD.
For my opinion controls little bit difficult. Or just i can't play it :D
Game could be improved! I have hard time playing the game. You could add music, sound effects, much better graphics, some polishing won't hurt and etc.
Overall, game needs improvement.
Here's link of my game if you're interested:
