Nice classic game you have here. Simple and fun. One thing I notice was that at times I could see objects flying down cut off the screen so half of them so that was a bit off. Maybe next time have it where some things start to speed up a little faster soon. I get how it got harder later on but I felt maybe sooner could have thrown something like a quick item fall here or there sooner. Just my opinion.  Still interesting game you have here.

Feels like an arcade classic! Artwork and music certainly pair well together and I did survive quite long with a score in the 600s. You could really spice it up by adding in a reason for the jump button by adding spikes or projectiles that come in from the sides in a later level. Overall good work!

Those are some really good ideas. Thanks a lot for the feedback!

Great arcade type game. Thought it was simple at first, but then the variety in what falls really hit. Overall great job.

I like the look of the game and had a fun time playing. I got to 648. It was well balanced and easy to get a handle on, while also providing difficulty, good game.

Great fun, i like how the escalation is balanced, slowly enough to learn and fast enough to not get boring

Developer

I'm glad you like the game. It took a fair amount of testing until I got the escalation right and it's nice to see someone mentioning it. Thanks!
