Things I liked:

-I like high score games (I scored 5192)

-I like the way the theme was used here- death is the beginning of the next part of the game- a more challenging one, too!

-A tracker for your high scores in game- super cool! 


Things to improve:

-more variety to music/ volume control. Music in first part is nice, but I got to 4500+ the music became too repetitive and the death sound on the second run was too loud

-increasing difficulty in the first part of the run and a more balanced way of randomly generating levels for the second part of the run (I had a gap that need a triple, possibly a quadruple jump to make)


Overall:

Fun game to get a high score on with a cool challenging second game meshed with the first one- Great idea!


It would be super awesome if you could check out and rate my game as well!

Thanks for such detailed feedback. I didn't get much time to make improvements, but the highway runner part tweaking is at the top of my list (especially the part you pointed out, which is increasingly difficult when time passes).

Oh also I forgot, but when you hit around every 400-500 mark (400-500, 900-1000, 1400-1500 etc) cars start to spawn and I can see them being teleported on screen and from the 500-600 mark (500-600, 1000-1100, 1500-1600 etc) there are no cars spawning, Just pointing this out just in case - can't wait to see an update!

The game modes seem disconnected, like two different games. Maybe a bit of text would help to contextualize their relationship. The gameplay needs some tweaking, especially the sidescroller part (giving a wider area, so  it's  easier to se what is ahead).

Other than that, a good start. Good luck!

Interesting you have to die to get to another runner game.

I like the game, the spawning rate or speed could use some tweaking though
