Very much enjoyed the wackiness. 

Was a little difficult to understand at times

perhaps you could have made the gameplay reflect the theme a little bit more - On a thematic level the world is defenitly out of control but you control the character fine

the music was cool and i think this could be developed into a humorous time waster easily. Nicely done.

The world you built here is very enthralling, I almost felt as though it was the world that I live in. But in all seriousness, I enjoyed it and I think with some balance changes it could be pretty fun.

Nice game i really enjoyed it. I also rated it. Also if you could play and rate my game that would mean a lot :)

First off: I love the presentation. The art looks great and is well polished.

Here are a few thoughts for improvement:

  • The movement is fine - I like that when you jump you move farther away from Karen. Other than that, it doesn't really have much going for it. It reminds me a bit of Canabalt, but without any of the verticality or juicy animations. It really needs more than just jumping to keep it interesting.
  • Some of the enemies, like the police car, move too quickly to avoid unless you're lucky. The sound it plays before it shows up is a good way of broadcasting its entry, but I never felt like I had enough time to avoid it, even with that. That might need to be tweaked.
  • I've played this for a while now and I'm not really sure what the point is. Initially, I thought that it might be to get to an end, but it never really seemed to show up so I don't think it's that. I thought that it might be to get the best time, but there is no high-score storage, so I don't think it's that. Then I thought it might be if you ran Karen into enough things she'd die, or if you got to the little spaceship you'd win, but I was never able to meet either of those states no matter how well I played. Even if you don't explicitly state it in the game (which I think you should) the game itself should be clear about broadcasting the player goal.

Good work. Thank you for letting me play your game.

Thank you for the feed back. We had ideas for a  boss battle at the end or something and a scoring metric where you could jump on enemies and kill them but we just ran out of time. Its just the nature of a game jam game but we will definitely keep those in mind.

Make sure you click the window the game is in if you click outside of it you can't pass any input into the game. The space bar is the only control for the game.

Hi an_almond_is_a_nut ! I'm sorry, but your game doesn't play! I tried clicking, pressing enter, space, etc. It didn't work. Maybe you can re-upload? I don't know, best of lucks!
