Fun stuff! My reflexes clearly need some work because the highest I got to was 75 in hard mode. It gets incredibly intense when the gems appeared at the edges and that brought on a dynamic experience. 

The graphics are lovely but I do think there was an opportunity to have the spider be animated as it crawled around, and perhaps a cobweb in the background to explain how the little guy was moving. The overall sounds were harmonious and tied up the game very nicely.

Developer

Thanks! Love that idea ๐Ÿ™‚

The player becoming bigger when collecting stuff is a cool idea, but it doesn't live up to its potential since the only hazards are the screen's borders. It would be much more interested if you were on a larger area with a few enemies.

Developer

Good idea, thanks for the feedback ๐Ÿ‘

I was hooked while playing this game! I liked how the speed and difficulty increased with each diamond you earned. At the same time, the size also increased, which I thought was a great idea as it not only made the game more difficult but also made it easier to earn diamonds.

Glad you liked it ๐Ÿ˜Š

Fun game with cute graphics!

Maybe you could add some evil gems that you need to dodge to spice up the gameplay. I would also appreciate if I could use WASD to move.

Good stuff otherwise :)

Developer

Thanks! Evil gems sound like a great idea :)

I had fun while playing! I agree, some audio variation with the gem sounds would be nice! Cute spider and background art. I enjoyed seeing the spider get bigger and bigger. :)

I tried a few times and the best i could get was 180. 
I was really glad at how easily addicting the gameplay was!!
A tip from me would be to add some random pitch variation to the gem collect sound to avoid audio fatigue! Other than that good job! 
(also cute lil spider and banger music :D)

Developer

Thanks a lot ๐Ÿ™‚ Great tip about the pitch - I'll keep that in mind ๐Ÿ‘
