I went in to this game skeptical. "Canabalt but you just run through walls? How could that be fun?"
I was happily proven wrong though, it's a fun little timing game. I like how it kind of strips out all the unnecessary complications and is just a pure simple timing challenge.
Graphics are pretty, although the walls are rather bland.
Didn't really feel like I was Escaping anything, just running. If I was running from something, I didn't really get that.

Yeah, it is a bit incomplete in that, the first idea was to make the "vampire" to run away from the sun but then I never added the sun light following you so it doesn't transmit the idea of escaping.
Happy the game resulted to be fun though.

I kept smiling all the time while playing, it's really a fun game! ^^
I like how simple but good the concept is! 4*
fun was up there :D Felt like a nice twist on a rhythm game. Good stuff
Feels like Bit.trip Runner meets Vampire the Masquerade (or Requiem if you are one of those new school hipster kids :P). Very fun to play.
The game is pretty nice, although some audio would definitely make it better. Fun to play anyway!
This is an awesome start, and I can see this becoming really addicting with some better graphics and a few more surprises. Well done.

Nice little game. I would like to see more gameplay mechanics though, to keep things more interesting.

What a simple concept, yet so much fun! :)
libgdx FTW!

I like it :D Simple and fun, maybe with some bonuses or adding jump ?
Wouldn't run. Downloaded a bunch of stuff, but then the page stayed blank. Chrome on Windows XP.

Fun one-button game. Best I could manage was just short of 500. Need more practice!
