A really well-made and polished game. Loved everything about it! I thought I would just play for a few minutes, and ended up being in the game for much longer because it was so addicting :DD It was a very good idea to include the leaderboard, that really motivates people to beat the highscore!

Thanks so so much!

Submitted

This was pretty cool, and I especially liked the art. Well done :)

Developer

Thanks for playing

Submitted

I love the visuals. The gameplay feels unfairly hard - like the spikes appearing at the ground, there's no way to tell that they'll be there.

But overall pretty good! Really like the atmosphere

Developer

Thanks for playing! 

Thanks for the feedback! I could add hints to the spikes being there e.g. different floor tile

Thanks for everyone playing and giving feedback!

I have finally fixed the bug where the screen moves faster than the character. (among other bugs)

This means it is possible to beat the highest score!

awesome pixelart! the hat animation is beautiful! 

Developer

Thanks so much! I drew the explorer during the game jam and thought the hat added a nice touch. :)

Really fun game! The simple graphics go very well with the gameplay and the randomization is very good, I especially liked the speed increase, it becomes quite tense.
Only "critique" i could think of is that sometimes there are unescapable cenarios, especially when jumping, like an arrow and a wrecking ball raising at the same time, maybe a small double jump could help.
But overall it is very good, an impressive that it even has a leaderboard, congrats!
And my record was 24.

Thanks for playing and making a video! You gave some good feedback. You could add that I have now fixed many of the bugs you mentioned

Submitted

Yay first of the leader board with 26 :D
Though I found it very mean that the screen is moving faster than your character at some point xD
Overall an awesome game, very fun to play !
Good job !

Developer

Thanks for playing! 26 is brilliant! :D

Sorry, the character's speed is meant to keep up with the screen movement at the same rate. I think the numbers are slightly out.

Submitted

I love the style of this one good job 

Submitted

The game is fun to play and the pixel art is quite nice. I love how you can "succumb to cowardice" or "succumb from eagerness" for going off screen.

I really liked the art of this game and its fun to play. Only thing I think need change (and its my opinion) is player movement is a little fast compared to camera movement.

(edit: ok my bad maybe camera gets faster afterwards as mentioned in comment below. I didnt get pass score 10)

Submitted

The character movement feels a little strange, but i enjoyed it a lot, and i loved the artstyle, congrats :)

Developer (1 edit)

Thanks for playing! How does the movement feel strange?

Developer

I assume you mean like the comment below. If so I have changed it

Submitted

I like the look of this, i dont particularly like the character acceleration, feels like is running on ice. I actually enjoy this game =)

Developer(+1)

Thanks for playing ! I could change the player numbers a bit...

Developer

I have now changed the numbers so it should be better

Submitted

good pixel art. I would like to see some unexpected obstacles

Developer

Thanks, I think the obstacles are already quite unexpected. Any examples of what you mean by unexpected?

Submitted

i expect find a slime monster, a arrow trap, a falling rock, etc. A falling goat, a candy monster, a grandma with a cane, those are unexpected,

and progressively making stranger and more unexpected obstacles would be a lot of fun

Submitted

Well done ! I like the design and the game is cool !

Developer

Thanks

Harder and wayy more unpredictable than I thought it would be. Love the pixel art (even the candles!) and cheesy music. Managed to get a score of 23 , overall great game :)

Developer(+1)

Thanks for playing it!

Submitted

Hey, I was really impressed with the gameplay, theme and the artstyle. The one critique I have is that once you get past 20 even if you are running at full speed it will still kill you, maybe you could increase the player runspeed a bit too? Anyway,  I liked it so much I went ahead and set the high score. Good luck beating me :p

Developer (1 edit)

Thanks so much! I will increase the player speed as time goes on. I'm going to beat you!😁

Submitted (1 edit)

Really cool! I love the pixel art, the music suits well, and the leaderboard is a very good idea as it made me want to play again to rank up! My personnal best is 19 😄 

Good job! 

Developer

Good job, 19 is a very good score! Thanks a lot!

Submitted

Just wow. The music, gameplay, and graphics are all top notch and work really well together. I kept coming back for more after every round. Great game! Play my game if you get a chance!

Developer

Thank you so much! First game jam!

Submitted

No way! It feels like you have done many more than just one game jam. Very impressive!

Submitted

Nice game , love the fact the levels changes after you restart. 

Developer

Thanks a lot!
