Really cool! Graphics honestly don't matter to me if the game is this fun! 9.5/10! .5 isn't there because there wasn't an explanation to how the game works, but it's really easy to figure out, so there's really no reason to have that in there :D

this is really cool. i like the balancing act of trying to get each player high enough to overcome the obstacles by getting a momentum going. i also really like the death sequence :P

gandalf1209 2014-08-25 02:26

Very good!

geckoo1337 2014-08-25 04:48

Interesting concept and minimalist environement - I like it. I don't understand how I can pass through the big obstacles but I like these little guys. Bravo and Thank you ++

Great interpretation. I like the idea, and the game is fun too!

Very clever game mechanics. I enjoyed playing this one.

Cool game. I included it in part 3 of my Ludum Dare 30 compilation video series :) http://youtu.be/WU8AB6IzBac

thanks for all the positive feedback so far! this was an experiment in teaching a mechanic with a mimimal amount of hand holding, i'm glad so many people are able to figure out the momentum jumping so easily :)

Easy to learn, yet challenging to play. Great work!

yodamaster 2014-08-25 14:52

Interesting idea, especially the jump-mechanics. Very hard.

dadman 2014-08-25 14:55

Awesome! I could play this for days.

dadman 2014-08-25 14:56

Awesome! I could play this for days.
A few more check points would be nice though. Still getting 5/5!!

xgor 2014-08-25 15:12

Really cool game. Would be nice with more checkpoints because this game is quite unforgiving.

donar 2014-08-25 15:58

Great concept. Simple but challanging and well presented.

mrexcessive 2014-08-25 16:30

Hey there. Love the graphics, including the play|replay and death, death, chainbreak sequence. Great sound. Good job!

konrad-zegis 2014-08-25 17:21

I really love that chain breaking effect after losing, and sounds. It reminds me of old NES games ;)

joonamo 2014-08-25 19:06

Overall excellent package! The minimalist style continues even outside the game to the web page, nice touch.

umbratilde 2014-08-26 01:58

Tons of fun, although you make the player hit the ground running. Quite addictive.

kunonooni 2014-08-26 02:12

Cool game mechanic and interesting use of theme

empyrealhell 2014-08-26 05:20

That was pretty awesome. I liked the concept, the mechanic was fun and executed well. It was a bit punishing once you got to the crazy parts of the game, I felt like I had to go back way too far, and it stopped being fun.

stevesalmond 2014-08-26 09:19

I found it quite tricky, but then again I'm terrible at anything involving platforms :) Loved the interpretation of the theme.

syawqy 2014-08-26 17:16

HAAARD....

nikki93 2014-08-26 22:27

Fun game! A little annoying some times but that just means I suck at it lol. I like how the website has the color theme too.

jishenaz 2014-08-26 23:51

Cool music! The mechanics are really fun, but also a little difficult to master. But I'm sure if I played this long enough, I would get really good.

otrorainteractivo 2014-08-27 03:42

I keep playing and keep dying and keep playing. Well implemented and very addictive.

rrootagea 2014-08-27 04:59

The good kind of challenging! Really enjoyed the visual style.

alucardx60 2014-08-27 07:35

Wow. Love the mechanic, the art, the difficulty balanced(no pun intended) enough to be addicting. This is a really good entry. Didn't make it very far though.

mrsylar59 2014-08-27 11:14

Very cool game, it's very hard ! I love that challenge x)

jukimv1986 2014-09-01 02:17

Cool mechanics! I also really liked how you designed the website to fit the colours in the game. Great job!

lekochen 2014-09-02 13:15

Solid mechanics.

teejay5 2014-09-04 00:45

the death sequence of the chain breaking is perfect! haha, nice game + mechanics! also, that's a nice color scheme you have going for the game.

hbocao 2014-09-07 23:07

I really enjoyed this! Very cool mechanics. I only didn't liked the death "animation". Took to long and to much effort to retry. Awesome entry, man!
