wow this is awesome! The looks are fantastic and a great feel for the 'minimalistic' theme. good music and fun! This is similar to my game where you jump and switch colors. Good job!

adjotur 2013-04-29 02:10

Haha, great game. Love the feel and look, music fits well. Top notch if I do say so.

7soul 2013-04-29 03:27

Very smooth, and it fits the theme. I wish you had expanded the mechanics a little bit, like a vertical pole in between jump that require you to change color some times

jase 2013-04-29 03:28

Very nice!

mcdonaldswizard 2013-04-29 03:33

Fun game. You mostly just need some more interesting level designs as the game gets going. wall jumping, falling floors & ceilings, etc. The color scheme really helps you tell where you are in the world, so its easy to know the right time to jump and switch. A lot of endless runners on the market don't even do that right.

broxxar 2013-04-29 03:37

I can dig it. Nice job!

Great music and great colours.

brant 2013-04-29 12:12

This game is awesome. Loved the flow of it. Nice take on a runner, I liked it!

SuperlevelSebastian 2013-04-29 12:26

Simple concept and mechanics, amazing flow. Leaderboards would be nice. 367.

lassedissing 2013-04-29 12:32

Awesome! The music is great and the visual fits the game very nicely.

timtipgames 2013-04-29 12:58

Very nice flow. Nice variation of the endless runner idea.

amour-maternel 2013-04-29 13:12

Nice variation of the canabalt-like. Good music. When the speed increased my eyes started to ache.

colapsydo 2013-04-29 14:18

Contrast between the background and the playable zone is really smooth. The resulting atmosphere is really pleasant.

It could have be nice to add a third color to the right, but it would have be surely a bit extreme at high speed.

Oh and the music is good.

colorvade 2013-04-29 14:40

Jump control felt perfect.

tacograveyard 2013-04-29 14:55

Jump has an excellent feel to it. The speed and overall feel of the gameplay is perfect. Definitely best game made with 1 hand.

cagedrat 2013-04-29 15:52

Nice twist on the endless runner.

whiteravens 2013-04-29 20:06

Simple, but great game!

bradleysmith 2013-04-29 20:10

Very very good and well polished game for 48 hours!

recursor 2013-04-29 20:11

Wow. Really polished presentation. Great graphics and music. It fits the minimalistic theme nicely.

bentog 2013-04-29 20:45

I can see this is a pro's entry, this is minimalism at its best. The only con I found is that the song is so awesome it distracts me from gameplay :D

chman 2013-04-29 21:30

Fun game, the color switching mechanics made it more interesting. I really like how smooth the gameplay is. It just feels right. Also, cool soundtrack !

rafaelsales 2013-04-29 22:27

Fantastic game. One of the best entries! Congratz!!

hgouveia 2013-04-29 23:28

love this game! very polished and great music

ddionisio 2013-04-30 06:39

Great execution! Nice and clean graphics and a great soundtrack! I love the fluidity of movement. You nailed the theme with this game!

andrewves 2013-04-30 08:37

I really enjoyed this game, the jumping and color changing feels quite natural and the color choice suits it perfectly.

zkenshin 2013-04-30 14:31

Nice solid entry. :)

pixelboy_85 2013-04-30 15:32

Minimalistic, fun and stylish.

gamingyourway 2013-04-30 17:49

I loved that lots, when it speeds up it rocks.
Pastal colour scheme works really well doesn't it, overall the look & feel is spot on.
Great work mate.

( I was going to make a joke about spending most of my time in front of the computer with one free hand, but then thought better of it ).

jellycakes 2013-04-30 19:19

Really nice job for someone who could only code with one hand in 48 hours and still turn up with a solid game with good visuals. Really good job!

entity2d 2013-04-30 19:22

Very simple and awesome game! Very addictive!

ataxkt 2013-05-03 11:10

Really good! Best platformer I've played so far, loving the Ikaruga thing! Possibly takes a little too long to get difficult though, shorter games encourage replays!

iossif 2013-05-03 22:42

nothing really new but a solid entry i can play several times :) well done!

super-hamster 2013-05-04 03:11

Awesome game! There should be different modes with more colors, like easy = 2, medium = 3, hard = 4, hardcore = 5. I don't know if that could work though but oh well. Anyways, like I said, this game was really good and very challenging.

cwilloughby 2013-05-04 07:41

Sick. This is really cool. Great work! Love the music fade in, the mechanic, the style, and the polish. Excellent. I was pulled in by the 10sec video just based on how it looked.

delahee 2013-05-04 09:28

Nice ! Looks like Cannabalt Gameplay with colour system !
luvit !

brotherst 2013-05-04 10:10

Nice gameplay and music!

orni 2013-05-04 10:32

loved it! it's like canabalt with an other great gameplay feature - very cool idea

please release this on mobile platforms - I'd love to play it on my android phone

split82 2013-05-04 10:38

Thanks everyone. I will definitely release this on mobile devices after I have some time to finish it :)

polar 2013-05-04 11:49

Really nice, but at high speeds it got a bit jerky :) Oh, highscore: 690

lu3mm3l 2013-05-04 12:05

Nice visuals, fluid gameplay, nice soundtrack. Who needs more? Great work!

pythong 2013-05-04 12:44

great! had to die a few times until I understood that this is not just canabalt ;)

madball 2013-05-04 12:46

It kept me glued to the monitor. Simple and fun gameplay, flawless controls. Well done.

0beah 2013-05-04 14:04

Interesting idea. Rather simple but well executed. Reminds me a lot of canabalt.

xaychru04 2013-05-04 15:16

I really enjoyed this game! The music was pretty simple but amazing, I couldn't stop playing :D

beerman 2013-05-04 15:30

Very slick. Loved the colour switching mechanic, really keeps you on your toes.

preordercancelled 2013-05-04 19:20

Really nice sense of speed. At first I thought it was too easy, but play it long enough and it gets really fun.

Simple and great with good music.

loxo 2013-05-04 19:52

That is a really fun to play game. I like the concept, music and simple graphics very much.

ilovepixel 2013-05-04 22:49

Nice game! music and visuals look very attractive. Gameplay was great too, this is a game I would really like to play while I am on long trip.

georgebroussard 2013-05-05 06:51

Great audio and game mechanic! This was really slick. The jumping was well done and everything was smooth and slick. Good stuff. Got 289.

metroidman347 2013-05-05 07:33

Terrific! I love dat music! It rocks!

covenant 2013-05-05 11:01

Good work, controls were perfect!

rujomarco 2013-05-06 15:26

very nice. a classy realization for a very enjoyable autorunner. nice song too.

zillix 2013-05-07 02:26

fantastic.

mildmojo 2013-05-08 06:36

Unity? Can has Linux build? Thanks!

imagnity 2013-05-08 20:19

We have similar concept on the color control. I liked yours way better. :)

turbodindon 2013-05-10 11:44

Simple but efficient concept.
The song is aweeeesome. Very dynamic.

sebastian 2013-05-12 11:49

Super fun game. I would prefer it if the difficulty ramped up a bit faster in the beginning because the first 150 or so points are a little tedious. Also I would have liked it if the cube did a full spin in the air instead of just rocking forwards a bit. Great music!
(I see now you made it a bit harder in the post compo version, plays a lot better)

sylvain-p 2013-05-15 00:36

Great re-inerpretation of canabalt in two button. Good gae.

puzzlem00n 2013-05-15 01:32

Enjoyable, definitely not a bad idea for a second button in the infinite runner genre. There's a lot of screen tearing, but it's not that big an issue. Cool game.

lyonsbanner 2013-05-15 14:10

279 points.

codexus 2013-05-15 19:58

Very minimalistic, nice music!

threef 2013-05-16 15:27

Idea is really simple, but music and art makes it great!

zccc 2013-05-16 15:34

Amazingly polished!! The gameplay is just addictive and the music... too awesome :o

xanjos 2013-05-16 21:40

Really nice variation on the endless runner genre that's just too fun and insanely addictive.

aevek 2013-05-18 06:58

For me, the perfect blend of a lot of games similar to this one, the basic concept is not original, but well implemented. The color switching added a cool mechanic to keep me focused for much longer than games like this normally do.

christina-nordlander 2013-05-19 22:16

Now this is how you do minimalism! Nearly as addictive as "Robot Unicorn Attack". The music is very good, I like the background, and there's enough challenge here to keep me coming back. Very nice.

XufyCZ 2015-06-02 15:53

Can you repair the download please...? I would be pretty happy, because I would like to look at the code.
