Has a really nice feel to it.
gfhghj
Well done. It's pretty, and it's fun.
I could not reach the bunker!
Nice game.
Love the graphics and design, but the animations makes it a little hard to react, like when you jump and want to slide instantly as you land it takes a small while before you actually start sliding... Got me sometimes but I was able to reach the bunker at last. Nice game, I like it! :)
Nice animations on the dude!
Great stuff! Graphics look awesome. Wish the camera pulled back a bit when the running got going faster so i could plan out my moves better.
Looks really nice. It's a pretty standard obstacle course style game, which I'm not super into, but it is very well executed, particularly the tension building near the end
Too many impossible to avoid situations turned what would have otherwise been a great game into just a good one. The running was good, graphics were good, the controls were responsive, but there's nothing I can do about four trucks in a row...
@Emphyrealheall Ah, yeah. We tried our best to get rid of as many of those situations as possible, but there just wasn't enough time. Glad you like it though!
@SevenKingdomsSurvivors Great idea! We are probably going to be updating "Refuge" sometime in the future, and I will definitely add that as a feature!
Congratulations! This is a very nice game! The graphics are fantastic. The controls could use a little work, and perhaps some logic so that you always have a chance to jump over objects (sometimes there's like 6 in a row, and it's impossible to make it over.)
Nice job!
Wow really great overall! If I could have one complaint, it feels like the hitboxes on the objects/player are a little too large, and I always catch myself on the objects I have to jump over.
Brilliant! The running animation is perfect, the sound is good, and the sense of speed is addicting. I'm sharing this game with the rest of my team, and the losing animation is worth losing for. Thanks!
It's hard to get five stars out of me. That implies sheer perfection. The audio was truly worthy of five stars. The game was fun too, this would do well ported to a mobile device. WOW.
@Jason Lay Ah, glad you liked it, thank you for the compliment on the audio! It was my first time with "realistic" sounds (I'm used to 8-bit noises), and my first time with orchestral music. I definitely spent a little too much time on both lol.
great art and style. the controls/animation need to be a bit tighter to make it a little more playable. I found myself hitting the vast majority of obstacles, even though i started jumping/ducking well before hand
Good graphics, but the delay to slide is a bit annoying.
i agree too many impossible to avoid situations, half the trick is just getting lucky with object placement, and the hit box on the obstacles seems too big. also annoying how you have to wait for the previous animation to stop playing before you can duck or jump again. Nice run cycle!
Nicely polished! Seems that I can't get to the end, or even avoid hitting anything along the way. Makes it seem a bit frustrating since it doesn't feel like it's my fault, more like the game is actually being unfair. Nonetheless I enjoyed it, music and graphics are pretty sweet and the controls are nice and simple.
Really crisp looking art and nicely complimentary music, but unless I'm missing something it's just not possible to avoid some of the obstacles.
(Is it really possible to survive, anyhow? The game over screen suggests that there's not much left of the planet regardless...)
Super cool runner game. I especially like the animation on the character, and how alot more intense the whole game gets as time passes, especially with all the camera shaking and such. Was very fun. I agree that it's abit difficult, but it's super tricky to get things right in such a short time. Kudos for what you achieved, you made me some fun 10 minutes :)
Earth exploding animation? A++++++.
Finished with 1 second left! http://puu.sh/8u0cP.png Awesome game, make an endless mode :)
Great game! But I don't really see how the bunker is going to help, maybe it's a placebo bunker?
That's a very good game =)
I would so die in a meteor strike. Love the graphics.
Loved the animations and the music. You guys executed the concept really well - it was short and sweet to play, and nicely polished. :)
Looks nice!
Cool! What else can I say
Great pixel art, and very fluid animations.
Got to the bunker after 10 tries or so.
I felt there was not enough responsiveness in controls, or maybe it was too much penalty time between jumps/slides, or maybe the obstacles generation, something feel a bit unfair (trying with 1.2).
Nice music, and the effects do the work.
Good game, I'm sure with some further improvements will become even better.
It looks and sounds very good, but damn! those meteors are infuriating. Like when they land JUST UNDER YOUR FEET at the end of a jump :-( .
Although the games looks like it should be very simple, the timing is always quite tense. I liked it, good job!
I particularly liked the ending when the world exploded. With a few tweaks you might be onto something here - I just felt it was a little unfair in the placement of obstacles.
I couldn't run it on my toaster :\ (Vista 32-bit)
Daaang! ots hard, but fun! nice graphics too.
Nice little runner, impressive art! Controls feel sometimes laggy, especially when trying to duck just after a jump.
Very well made. Fun game overall.
Sometimes it's impossible to avoid the objects. I think the jumping is a bit too far and slow. Perhaps the gravity should be increased.
Sliding feels good.
Really, really cool entry. Lots of polish and seeing the particles at play in slow mo was sweet. I played the updated version and it still seems you're prioritizing animations over reaction time though, which looks great but is slightly frustrating when what you want is lightning-fast control.
