I really like the pixel art and the different types of obstacles you added. However, I think the gameplay could be improved a bit to make it a little more fair for the player. No matter what I did, I seemed to hit obstacles. I also wasn't sure how to start the game at first and wasn't sure why it was linking me to Youtube.

I think this would benefit from an endless runner type format, where the cart is constantly moving and you just have to focus on jumping to avoid the obstacles in time. I really like the premise, and I think it has potential to be a fun game. It just needs a little more development. Still, lots of fun.

The game was originally coded to be an endless runner but there were issues with how it was coded. The player character kept sinking into the floor when the whole level environment was moving instead of the player. 

Switching to a traditional platformer control scheme fixed it. It's possible to add a constant velocity to turn it into an endless runner (with a finite stage length)

I was most inspired by Dino Run when making this. 

I thought about making a constant moving camera like those Mario scrolling stages but abandoned that since it seemed like those levels were not loved by players.

I made the player get immediately hit by rats at the beginning for immediate life reduction feedback. 

Youtube is for culture :)

Thanks for playing!!!
