Belatedly, I realize you were joking, but this kind of joke can be triggering and/or offensive. Some people have lost close ones to suicide, or may have suicidal tendencies themselves. As you've seen, people answered soon enough, all it took was a bit of patience. Please be more considerate next time. Thanks.

thank you for your answer and sorry if my joke wasn't funny as I expected

You're welcome, and sorry I didn't say something earlier.

4 years old, but I had to put my input that joking about suicide is taking things too far.

Seconded, i know some people can have a dark sense of humour but what the hell man.

Quick question, how much time and effort have you invested in marketing your game?

i did what I can I made a trailer video took some screen shots and put some tags put I don't know what to do more than that if you could help it would be very nice from you.

Cool let me know, I'll check it out!

check it out this isn't the final result but I will add new pickup every week I wishπŸ‘πŸ‘πŸ‘

Just played, one thing I recommend would be some sort of title screen.  I launched the game not realizing it was going to jump me directly into playing it.

i been known to have very nickpick listed and i'm sorta a honest to the point kinda reviewer, so if you are asking for it here it is.

You don't have anything in your page, ts all white. No explanation of your game, no story or anything in your page. Dark background in the game too, no one wants that. enemies nearly hard to see. The game can almost be called a rip off of flappy bird and if i didn't know better you might have copy the tutorial part of unity. On the video you are having a hard time dodging it, if you can't dodge it no one can. copyright music. it will get boring after like 10 mins because you will be able know and saw all of the game.

And that is it, hope this helps.

acctually it helped with all this information you gave me a very good fixes and improvements for my game I swear I will work on this and thank you very much πŸ‘πŸ‘πŸ‘Œ

go check this 5 min story that I posted in the game description anyways the in game edits will take time but I will do it and i 'm will follow you to get your opinion thenπŸ™πŸ™

Coincidence, when I first checked out his game, first thought was Flappy Bird. Although, currently, a rip off that isn't all the same like Flappy Bird would actually be great since Flappy Bird isn't available anymore.

Its as simple as it is hard to achieve. Only YOU know what YOU need to do and, to have success you "simply" have to work your ass off. Thats the simple and hard truth. If what you wanted to achieve did not work, work harder. If you don't know what to do, find an information source, giving you the information you need. If something you did is not good enough, do it again. And really, if you want to have a more chilled life, stop having expectations. Its that simple (but that does not mean it is easy). I guess you know all of this already, as you seem to be an intelligent guy, but have a hard time accepting it as we all have. Good Luck and stay strong man!

thank you very much πŸ‘πŸ‘πŸ‘
