Neat entry that feels complete. I never found out if there was an ending to the game, because I was terrible at it! (I use the dvorak keyboard layout, so the jump and climb buttons were in very inconvenient places). However I did manage to survive for a few minutes.

I was far too preoccupied running away from the lava to even consider collecting things or staying above the pink line. Perhaps if the points/bonus also slowed down the rising tide? (Or, if it did this, perhaps it needed to be a little more obvious!).

Overall, well done!

Very addicting, but of course also difficult. My current top score is 1508 but I will certainly try for better than that.
Good graphical style, but the music gets pretty irritating after a while

A bit too difficult for my taste, but it feels finished, polished and playable. Good music.

Liked the game ( like all the others you made ;) ) Good music and polished gameplay. Got a little Icy Towers vibe from it too. Good job~!

Nice work on the clinging-mechanic.

I don't have an XBox controller but with keyboard the game seems to be quite difficult. Especially the cling and jump mechanism requires some planning. Nevertheless a fun game. The soundtrack is great.
