Pretty relaxing game :)
this is my favorite game so far. beautiful pixels, atmosphere and style. a game, distilled.
Loved this!! It's simple but pretty addictive and relaxing. The graphics were nice and loved the ambient soundtrack-- great job!
This was great, imagine that a guy throwing rocks could be this much fun!
This is a simple, beautiful game. I felt like an idiot after waiting for twenty seconds at the start because I thought something was going to happen (because of the "Press UP to skip") :P
Simple, Fun, Releaxing. Brilliant game!
Very atmospheric and relaxing game. I really like it. The graphics where beautiful and the sounds fit the game perfectly. The game-play was a little simple but solid.
Great work!
Very polished game, after playing a bunch of minimalistic games it is nice go see such a detailed pixel art. Currently at 213 meters but I will work on it.
The skip sound is a bit to loud, had not heard the ambient first since I had to turn volume down.
This is lovely! Great choices on color palette and sounds, just pitch-perfect and beautifully simple.
580m :-)
5 perfect skips right at the beginning made my stone fly off-screen :D
It looks really beautiful as well. Only point of critique is that there is no real progression in difficulty (or none that I could detect at least). One of the coolest games for me so far!
My best is 158. It's getting easier when you realize you can focus on the collision with your reflect instead of the collision with the surface.
Also I think it would be better if you scroll your parallax in reverse when you go back to your position. Even if you dont go through all the real distance. Just a bit would work great.
Really simple concept, yet entertaining by loads. Very solid work, loving the subtle sounds and graphics as well. I liked it. Really. Though it seems I'm not as good as other people. Got a 186 with 4 perfect skips. Well, there's room to practice.
A fun and addictive game. My highest score was 227. Visuals and audio fit to the relaxing gameplay. Well done!
Relaxing and addictive is a funny combination but it works well here. I only got a higbscore of 156 but with a perfect x3 combo I feel pretty good about the score. I'll be sure to work on it though.

Oh man, this was great. I love seeing an entry that isn't afraid to be simple. You picked a thing, and you did it really really well. This was so relaxing, I'm keeping it in my "kill some time" folder on my desktop.
Simple but very well executed. The ambient sounds give it a great chill atmosphere and the graphics are nice and consistent.
Neat, very simple and effective. I'm much better at this game than skipping stones though.
Great. Simple. Clever. Fun. Relaxing. Adjective.
Nice entry! I love small scope games that feels complete and polished like this one. Bookmarked
Great job! A simple, fitting concept that works wonderfully, very polished.
Congrats!
Great game, well made considering time limit. Nice visuals.
So relaxing, felt like I was really there. That feel when you get perfect - oh yeahhhh.
An actually neat idea for the theme. Could totally see myself sinking way too much time into this just to get a really bad high score.
The mood and theme here are excellent. Everything ties together in a simple and elegant fashion to evoke the experience of a fall day in the woods. It left me wanting more.
I would have liked for the 'skip' sound effect to better match the ambient sound, though, as it took me a little 'out of the zone'.
Simple but great game! Love the graphics. I included it in part 10 of my Ludum Dare compilation video series, if you'd like to check it out :) http://youtu.be/vjBlRj2wHy8
Absolutely wonderful game! The visuals, audio, and gameplay are all well done.
