14 diamonds 7582m on run 1... I liked the music and the mouse controls...
The colours are well chosen, they worked well together...
Your screenshot has lots of blue squares, I couldn't get more than 3...

Level 3 is a bitch !

tannernetwork 2014-04-28 13:51

@Xeke_Death you can upgrade max lives count in the menu. Just click on red text in center when you have enough diamonds :)

@pandavigoureux there are at least 5 :P

Thanks!

nambiar 2014-04-28 14:15

GAHHH Level 3 you bitch!

philip_sinclair 2014-04-28 14:50

great music!

mintarcade 2014-04-28 15:10

Nice music and very dark

cr2crstudios 2014-04-28 15:11

Good aesthetic, it would be awesome to be able to start after level one. :)

smilingcat 2014-04-28 15:13

If not for the obvious trademark issues, a good title for this would be "Pitfall Harry's Escape from Hell". Pretty fun little runner!

cayodaves 2014-04-28 15:14

Very cool. It's neat how such a simple style gives it so much character. I think there was an issue collecting lives; I con't grab them. Otherwise a very fun endless runner, and the achievement system is a really nice touch.

romko_pidstryhach 2014-04-28 15:16

I like the controls. Nice gameplay. Level 4, hell yeah.

hexagore 2014-04-28 15:17

Only figured out you could use the mouse on the second run. I am horrible at this game, but I like it!

tannernetwork 2014-04-28 15:24

@CayoDaves you have to upgrade lives capacity. Now I know it isn't as intuitive as I supposed - upgrades are available exactly on center in menu :P (click it!!!!!!!one)

lightsoda 2014-04-28 16:00

Wasn't expecting to be able to move the dude with my mouse so freely, made it easier in the beginning, but it sure ramped up fast. Nice work.

gigitrix 2014-04-28 17:30

Cool music! It's not made very obvious that there are upgrades hehe. Nice premise.

mefteg 2014-04-28 17:37

I like the music! A bit difficult for me ^^' Great entry!!

larzan 2014-04-28 18:09

Love it, great Gfx + Music, the controls are very inovative, gives it a very specific feeling and difficulty.
Top Game!

daneestar 2014-04-29 10:17

Cool music and nice atmosphere.

superyoshi 2014-04-29 13:55

Loved the music, but moving the mouse to move made the game really easy since you could clear any obstactle without problems. Didn't really get hard until close to the end of Level 4.
Also, maybe the black boxes could be replaced by something else - when I saw the first one I assumed you could jump onto them, and lost a health point.

kragnir 2014-04-29 14:22

Main issues are the lag and the fact that you can pass through diamonds, other than that it is a pretty well made game. Like that you did not go overboard with the screenshake.

technocf 2014-04-29 15:19

Overall a good game and runs smoothly. The controls could have been described a bit better.

davidwparker 2014-04-29 15:39

Neat idea. I feel like the beginning should have been a bit 'faster'?

bukaneerz 2014-04-29 16:06

Great work !
little lag, but when you understand the mechanics, it's cool (:

pancakecity 2014-04-30 18:12

I liked how the game level was tilted.

rnlf 2014-04-30 22:48

The music is awesome. Not a big fan of running games, but this one had something.

franklins-ghost 2014-05-01 13:07

First run level 3, 4047m.

alvarop 2014-05-01 17:50

Nice take on the infinite runner "genre". The fact that I could move the mouse around made the game kind of easy in the beginning. Nice difficulty progression and challenges. I could see more upgrades and stuff to make the player want to try it over and over.

harsayhd 2014-05-01 19:52

I love the music. It's not very connected with theme but action happens in hell. Graphics are minimalistic but matching good. I like the idea with player position related to mouse. You should consider making a post compo. Good job!

gre 2014-05-02 09:28

I enjoyed it, it is quite fun.
The rotated game design is incredible.
The music match a lot this hard core game^^.
The mouse controls are a bit weird at the beginning (especially the move-during-jump feature), but we get used to it.

PS: what is this plateform I can't jump on it? why it is black?

euske 2014-05-02 13:30

After I learned the mechanics, I found the game pretty addictive. Well done.

xaychru04 2014-05-02 15:54

Simple game, the mouse controls were nice though! And this music was loud haha... ^^

stvr 2014-05-04 02:51

Spotty hit detection made it very difficult to play, but it had a good sense of style and looks darn good for HTML5. Nice work!

crefossus 2014-05-05 20:05

I liked the control scheme and the interesting choice of skipping multiple obstacles or not.

A little slow at the start after the first try - maybe make these levels a little shorter?

Music helps keep up the energy level even though it gets a little repetitive. Could use sound FX.

alwaysinbeta 2014-05-05 23:04

Good, fun game. Graphics are lovely as is the music. Found the controls a bit hard to handle, but I liked that you were doing something unusual with them.

andrewjamesadams 2014-05-09 19:16

Great Game. Loved it. Optimize for mobile and take my money now.

managore 2014-05-10 11:47

Great game, it was a hell of a lot of fun to play and the music was perfect. Level 5, Beneath The Surface, was always too much for me!

jupiter_hadley 2014-05-10 18:04

Fun game!! I included it in part 19 of my Ludum Dare Compilation video series, if you'd like to take a look :) http://youtu.be/KGS8tZwHKag

peterlavey 2014-05-17 14:00

2100M: D at first I was scared because I was with headphones, good music, was well packaged.

tannernetwork 2014-05-19 15:56

Thank you all for votes and comments! :)

rincewind_cz 2014-05-19 23:00

Pretty good! As I'm not usually fan nor player of the endless runner genre I found this precisely implemented and actually quite challenging! Good job with audio and graphics part :-)
