Judge feedback

  • Very beautiful pixel art and color pallette, straightforward mechanic, fun arcadelike game!
  • Fun little scrolling platformer game! I think it could use a bit more variety for better replayability.
  • Love my man Oscar. GREAT job with the parallax backgrounds, they are beautiful! Would have loved to see more variety in the environment, even with simple color changes, but it's still very satisfying to move quickly. Obstacles would be nice but it's also possible I just didn't make it far enough to them, lmao!

Very nice ridiculous game! I love it!

I'll say like some other that the background makes my eyes go sideways a little when it's going at high speed. Also, it becomes really hard to know how high I should jump when I can't even tell what's coming up, maybe having an indicator of sorts could help for that?

But except for that, love the art, love the music, love the presentation!

Good job!

OMG the parallax background with that colour palette is absolutely gorgeous!! This is a simple runner but its so funny to watch my little ostrich do flips on his way to *who knows where*... Also good choice on the music, it just put me right into the ostrich-running-zone xD
