Nice Game! In this the score is based on survival time so we can stop on one platform for while (as lava is slow) till increase the score but I think if it is based on highest tile achieved it will good.

Neat doodle jump-esque game! The falling rocks were a nice touch as well. Simple but very satisfying gameplay. As funny as it feels for me to say this, I actually think it may be a tad too easy. I was rushing a bit and kept missing jumps at one point so I decided I was just going to go down and see what the fail screen was like and I was a bit surprised just how far I had to run down to reach the lava. But that's a very minor thing so nicely done overall!

That was fun, nice job!! I could not beat the developer score, think I was around 100 though!

Super sick little doodle jump type game! I love that the boulders all just fall however gravity makes them fall and that you can jump on them. Nice twist on a OG formula

Submitted

Here was my high score:

I love that tip too. Believe me I tried. You can see the two boulders that sandwiched me there. And the sound fx were great too! I always love a good endless game. Nice work!

The game is played more or less well, gives some adrenaline. Would appreciate more variaty, like not only jumping higher with powerups, but maybe something new introduced from time to time.

My score is 202. Unfortunately, lava caught me.

Nice one! I got a score of 238 :D  It really is fun to play and I like the twist with falling rocks coming towards you! Just one thing which I'd have loved is if you would see the lava rising beneath you ( or maybe you did add that, but I was too far away?)

People usually underestimate how much skill does it need to have a nice smooth movement in a platform and a well-balanced jumps and distances. This is well done and very fun. Nice job! :)

I like the Result.
It would be good to have more variety and perhaps improve the physics a bit.
But good job! Congratulations!

The character movement was nice! Maybe the lava could be a bit quicker for a greater sense of urgency?

Brought back memories for doodle jump. It is an impressive endless climber in such a short time. Artwise it is very coherent, the rocks are a big part of the game, I think it would have been more interesting to have different platforms as well, also being close to lava changes the colors and that is so beautiful. Good job!

A fantastic looking game. The sound is great used, music would have been nice. But the lava was not really utilized e.g. it could have shot from the sides periodically.

Fun nice concept, during my game the rocks were a much bigger treat than the lava would have been nice to have it more involved.
