I just wish the game was a bit faster. Interesting take in the non-stop running genre.

It's a clever idea to use 10 seconds as 'delay'.
The game is pretty hard.

I can only describe this game as ruthless. It's great fun, but good Heavens, is it hard.

Cool idea on paper, but even with the super slow scroll you still can't prepare what will come ahead and I just found myself just spamming the jump and hope for the best.

You and I had a similar idea. Nice job!

tinard 2013-08-26 19:52

fun game! =) nice work

Cool idea, however it's very difficult haha. Also, make sure when you reset a scene in Unity, to also reset any static variables such as the timer.

Time doesn't reset between levels.

Really unforgiving! Cool concept though, nice job!

However apart from that there are some more problems. Overall your game was rathe poor in the whole graphics/audio department. This is really killing it's mood. Using the default UI skin the comes with unity GUI doesn't help either. However I found your use of the theme refreshing on paper, this did not translate into a fun game though. The reason was that even with the character walking so slowly I still couldn't see what was coming up in time.

Also, the link to your source is not found.

The source link should be working now.

Man, that central mechanic is pure evil, but I like it :). Clever use of the theme, but jeez Louise it's hard.

Great idea, but it basically boils down to a random chance button masher. Still fun though :)

Crazy hard game. I feel like that guy in Austin Powers who gets run over by the slow moving vehicle while he yells "NOOOOO" for 5 minutes.

jordo76 2013-08-28 15:26

It's kinda the same idea has mine, and I like it !
And it's very difficult ! Good job !

stenol 2013-08-29 15:12

Hard game but cool concept. Great work !

xaizil 2013-08-30 23:38

The delay was soooo tricky to navigate, could be a bit faster though

meta87 2013-09-01 00:54

interesting concept!
