Nice game and very fun, well done!
The control is a bit tricky, e.g. sometimes you cannot properly turn around if you are already too far on the side, but this kind of adds to the excitement :D

Thanks for playing! It was super fun to make!

Nice game but it feels weird that the laser moves you faster than the level scrolls. I found trying to slow down intentionally, a little hard/counterintuitive to the experience. Perhaps you could have a base scroll rate that speeds up the closer the player gets to the edge so they can always see what's coming?

That's actually a really interesting idea. it's true that it is counterintuitive. Maybe I should try that and see how it goes. I appreciate the feedback!

Pretty cool! I agree with some of the other comments that it's really easy to die right at the beginning (happened to me too) but once you get past that it becomes a fun game of threading the needle. Almost like that old Operation board game I played as a kid. Solid work!

Thanks for playing! At least this problem is one that is easy to fix!

So... I like the game, but the start button should probably be moved since I keep killing my self(don't take that out of context). Now about the sound, the sound is fine, but i keep getting jumpscared by the death sound, mainly because the rest of your game is so silent. Good game, hope i don't sound to anoying! :)

Developer

Not annoying, feedback is good! That does seem like a big problem though. Thank you very much for giving feedback and playing!

Good i was slightly scared that i had, come across like a nitpikker well done for 3 hours

Weird controls, fun game. 4/5

Also I would make the player start at the center of the screen because in level one I kept self destructing because of where the start button was.

oh, ok. Great idea and one that I hadn‘t thought of yet! Thanks so much for playing!
