wow very fun game like hill climb racing with jump mechanic
Haha thanks for playing and commenting, and the awesome comparison with hill climb racing! That is really one of the OG classics, so it means a lot to be put together with them. Thanks a ton!
Oh this was cute! Simple mechanics and yet very polished and fun! I'm not very good at these games so I didn't get far but had a blast!.... (see what I did there??) ;-)
Thanks a bunch for playing and your kind words! It's a difficult beast to balance game play for a jam, but we're glad you enjoyed playing anyway and that it stuck the landing ;-)
Groovy game, loving the simplicity and music fits surprisingly well! Love the shop element, it completely opens up the game and makes the enjoyment continue. Would like to know the background story of this character and why he has a death wish though! Haha Well done!
Awesome feedback, thanks for playing and commenting! And also awesome to hear you liked the shop, it was one of the last features we managed to implement (Which is also executed a bit more crudely, it could definitely need an extra design pass or two). And great idea, maybe we'll look into adding some lore context for future updates :-D
This is such a simple yet fun game! The tutorial was nice and I loved how the explosion mechanic was used for both jumping and exploding into mine shafts.
Thanks a ton for playing and the kind words, it means a lot :-D The explosion mechanic was really something that emerged through the development of the game, and it ended up being so core to the game play loop. It's funny how those things kind of just appear by going through the process. Thanks for commenting, and happy jamming! :-)
So much fun!
It's a simple idea, yet it keeps me wanting to play more and more.
We're happy you had fun, and it's good to hear that the game play is engaging :-D Thanks for playing and commenting !
Fun runner with a nice setting ! :D
Thanks a ton, we're also really happy with how it turned out :-D Thanks for playing !
very fun, a really well polished game for such a short period of time.
Thanks a bunch for playing and writing such a nice comment also, it's so awesome to read :-D
This game is great!!! I played it for ages trying to beat my high score of 870 meters. Awesome game😃😃😃
Haha that sounds awesome, well done with your highscore! We're happy you had fun and spent some time playing and commenting. Happy jamming! :-D
Nice game. Well executed and polish. The way you made the tutorial is really interesting, but a bit too slow.
Thanks a ton for playing and commenting :-D And duly noted with the tutorial, we will make sure to give it an extra pass for the next update! Thanks for the feedback :-)
Nice tutorial and fun mechanics.
Thanks for playing and commenting, we love all your feedback :-)
Very polished, the mechanics all fit really well together and it's super satisfying landing a huge jump and getting that speed up! Well done!
Thank you so much for the nice words and taking time to commenting also :-D It means a lot and we're happy you liked the game !
very fun game, love the procedural generation of a map. also surfing music fits surprisingly well.
Thanks a ton :D The surfing music was a happy accident that just seemed to tie everything together so well. Thanks for playing and commenting !
It's a fun and well-polished game. Loved it!
Thanks a bunch for the nice words, it means a lot to us :-D
Unique thing
Thank you so much for playing and commenting, we appreciate it a ton! :-)
Such a complete package! Took me back to the time when i was a kid playing flash games. The 7 years-old me would play this nonstop!

Haha that is a great nostalgic comparison! We tried to aim for the classic flash game experience vibe, so happy to hear that it's along those lines. Thanks for playing and commenting :-D
Nice game! Decently polished and good tutorial. Well done!
Thank you so much, we spent a good while on the tutorial so we're glad it landed well :-) Thanks for playing!
Really well done, and the tutorial didnt feel annoying. Just slowing it down was perfect. I will actually come back and play this again!
Thanks, it means a lot :D We're happy you liked it and took time commenting. Thanks for playing!
Fun mechanic with progression and cool tutorial!
Thanks for playing and commenting, it means a ton for us!
That was quite fun! I also like the aesthetics and the beginning transition from the splash screens to the in game screen was lovely!
Thanks a bunch, we spend way too long on the splash screen so we're happy you like it! :D
