Pretty cool game, and multiplayer for a jam is impressive. It does them a bit to unforgiving however, on mistake and you can't catch up and go off the screen. Other than that good job.

Very fun ideas, and I love the multiplayer inclusion. I will say though that I am also one of those people "getting way faster screen speed than intended" while using Google Chrome making it very hard to stay alive longer than 20 seconds as the screen far out speeds the player at that point, but what I can play is enjoyable and I tried to get as far as possible.

20 seconds is impressive! My friend that had the same issue could only get to 18 after employing speed run strats :p

Love that this is multiplayer! Super fun to race friends and get them stuck places! Good job! This is a solid 10/10 fun time!

Very cool, the screen started out a little too fast for me but it's a great use of playroom imo, also a great use of the theme and overall it feels very polished.

unfortunately we found out after the deadline some people are getting way faster screen speed than intended (firefox?), but glad you liked it!

Ahh alright, I'm using brave browser so that's prob the case then, I believe it's based on firefox

Cool game! I played it with my girlfriend but we had some desyncs. Refreshing didin't solve the problem for us. Sometimes it worked the other time it won't. But overall a really cute idea!

Love the art style, and I really liked how you mixed the platformer game with multiplayer! I would definitely play this with my friends hehe

Just played my friend, so had so much fun, great game design! It is bit jittery when it's multiplayer tho

Yeah haha unfortunately we didn't have time to fix all the multiplayer issues, but glad you enjoyed it!

As a cat enjoyer, I am obligated to play this game. I really love the art style of this game. Reminds me of arcade games (I love arcade games). Due to my lack of friends, I can't comment on the game's multiplayer friendliness or how fun it is with friends, but I like the usage of the theme where instead of directly forcing the player to move forward, you move the camera and players have to keep up. I may have to save this game to try whenever I have friends to play with
