*Note!
The game does track how many meters you have fallen, but in web (at least for me) the top bar blocks where the score is kept. You can probably adjust it to get a better view of score.

The miner's face is hilarious. Nice job for how quickly you produced it.
I liked it, some of the gaps when falling were nearly impossible to fit through
This was an enjoyable little endless runner type of game. The only real issue was that the way the background graphics moved hurt my eyes a bit. Anyways, nice job!
Ludum Dare is not about the ratings your entry receives. It's about finishing something in 48 (or 72) hours. Which you did. Be proud! :)
Some gaps are impossible, the boulders are a guaranteed SPLOSH, but I couldn't stop playing thanks to that miner waving his arms and the untz untz. I found it actually funny :D
For some reason this reminds me of the jetski levels from Battle Toads. Fun, yet very very hard. (The rock falling from the top of the screen made me sooooo mad.)
Heh, funny n.n
Shame some of the obstacles are a little unfair (I literally had two ledges that were touching each other, completely blocking the path).
But since the game is about the UNLUCKIEST miner IN THE WORLD, I reckon it only makes sense...
Nice entry. I sometimes had impossible places where the whole area was blocked. Quite unlucky. haha :/
Somme gaps seem to be impossibles but good game!
Very cool.
kind of frustrating :-P... sometimes a rock will appear and no amount of reaction time will save me... need to just be lucky
Not the best game to be, but not the worst one too. Good luck next time :D
Re your description: Totally. I think Ludum Dare has always been intended to be more about learning and having fun than about winning.
@ Everybody complaining about impossibility...
Yea, It can be a real pain. Fortunately, I was able to trim down the possibility of it happening. There's almost no chance of it happening (but there still is some chance). Haha, the way I see it, ur gonna die eventually, why not nowXD. Yeah, im sorry for that glitch, I hope it doesn't bother any more players
@Party Boat... Sorry for that
@Barking Cat... Haha, I love his arms waving the way it does, everytime I see them, I think of a random dude streaking at a beach, except in a cave, and upside down.
@Gaeel... Indeed he is a very unfortunate miner... Especially when his head and legs fly off from his unfortunate predicament.
@Voidqk... That's what makes it fun bro XD
@Everybody... Thankyou for all those great things you've said about the game, I was worried you may not like it, but I was pleasantly surprised that you enjoyed the game. The game meant a lot to me, and I'm glad it meant a lot to you too.
Goodluck with your games! Godbless.
#WAVY ARMS!!!!!!!!
Overall pretty fun game. The scrolling background was a little painful. Love the little man!
I really like the sense of mystery that comes with this game, I enjoyed exploring around and the sounds of the robot-hand made me smile (:
Oops, that comment was for another game! Sorry! I tried playing this game but I don't have flash installed, it looks good though!
Awesome! I really like the flying body parts and stuff! This reminds on of the other falling games, but this one is uniques and more fun! Great job! :D GameGrape Corporation: http://www.codingrevolution.blogspot.com
Falling sub-theme is pretty good thinking, good job!
Awesome game! I really enjoy this!
BOOM TISS BOOM TISS BOOM TISS BOOM. Seriously cool soundtrack. It works well with the game. I found the tone to be a bit humorous. Great concept, good execution, but when the screen rumbled I expected something to change.
Cool game! Okay graphics, nice sounds, solid gameplay. A fun little endless runner. Since this is just a Stencyl game, I don't know why you don't just upload it to dropbox or something and have a web option, that's probably bringing down your number of players significantly. The background hurts my eyes some, and certain gaps are impossible to get through unless you are in the exact right spot at all times. Overall pretty good work, but it could use some more polish! I've uploaded the swf to my dropbox, feel free to use this as the "Web" option if you want. https://dl.dropboxusercontent.com/u/57962942/Free%20Fall/Free%20Fall.swf
@ CayoDaves... The rumbling is aftershock from the earthquake that knocked the unfortunate miner into the pit, and the aftershock is there to make things a little more difficult and to give the game another cool feature.
@MrBlades... I just updated with web version, although its pretty much the same as windows. I don't know why
.... Accidentally pressed submit comment... As I was saying.
I don't know why I didn't do that earlier, and I wish I had, Your probably right it did damage the number of plays. Thankyou for reminding me and thankyou for you comment:)
First thing that happened to me was two rocks spawned at the same Y location thus completely blocking my path. :( The blood and gibs are definitely cool though - more of that please! My game is quite similar to this. :)
Atleast you finished something. That's what LD is all about!
(The gibs was a nice touch!) :)
It is a very good game, reminiscent of this old games I used to play, of cars made of blocks, "racing", where you had to move left and right, and you had either 2 or 3 lanes...
Sadly, a few times, my fist obstacle was an impossible one.
Keep it up, great job for your first entry. If you ever need help in Unity, feel free to message me.
I like things crashing to the ground. :) Thanks.
Cool game, pretty good although the background was really hard on my eyes! :)
Fun light gore-ish falling game ;) Would have been nice to get some upgrades / variation. Surviving more than 1 hit would also be a good tension device. (first hit, just lose your hard-hat for example, then next = splut)
I like this. When I was a kid I played a game like this on MS-DOS (yeah, I'm old). It used ASCII art and was called Pitfall (but wasn't THAT Pitfall from Activision).
Awesome! I love the music in combination with the earthquakes! But I think the background could be better ;) Nice Game :P
The effects are super good in this. Great work on that, plus the audio works great with the game. The little guy is hilarious to watch. I think the game is unfair though. Like you're not able to get past all obstacles. And sometimes a rock will just come out of no where and kill you. Controls could also be smoother. Really glad you had a great time making this, you done good
Nice game and hard
liked the falling runner !
o Mohawk verde da formiga é um folha... :), agora está com o modelo final... dá para ver melhor.
Green Mohawk ant is a leaf ... :), is now with the final model ... you can see better.
I really enjoyed this game, but I don't know what my score is. I could not read it, nor was it shown after I died. Still a really fun game.
Funny game! I like the humor
Nice little game but a bit too punishing for my taste. Sometimes it seems impossible to pass because of the slow velocity of the miner.
