Nice mood here, and the minimalism in the graphics works to the game's benefit I think. Possibly too many things going on for an endless runner, and the jumping felt hard to predict, but I still enjoyed it a bunch.

Quite nice, flows well
Its kinda glitchy, but i like the gameplay
Very minimal, but not in a bad way.
I wanted to like this game, but it just felt like the jumping was too unnatural, and I really couldn't get into it. It's going on my try again later list
Personally I would've dropped the shooting and given some more love to the jump mechanic. Jumping off the top of screen is abusable - you can jump over lasers etc. Some indicator to where you were going to land after jumping off the screen could've been useful. I had fun trying to master the jump though!
I think the progression of upgrades was well chosen - each ability was useful in certain situations, keeping the game challenging instead of making it too easy.
I don't have any real criticisms except the slow pace, but that's just personal preference. :)
Oh my god that thing jumps up like crazy. It was very hard to grasp a proper control with this jump. I just kept falling apart, falling past platforms, or just jumping to death.
Also falling off a ledge killed me? That was kinda weird.
Still a nice idea making an endless runner with upgrades and all. Good job

Interesting...
