Love it! Super addictive

hypnoticbytes 2014-12-09 18:26

Nice entry! Very addictive! 8 is my best score... Good work!!!

Fantastic game. Love the minimalistic graphics a bit hard, but amazing.

flwns 2014-12-09 18:28

Even though this is a simple game, I think it is very polished and good for what it is. I like the retro style, seems like it should be on an Atari.

HelkeGames 2014-12-09 19:23

Simple but neat concept! Well done!

edve98 2014-12-09 19:25

Quite nice, but waayy, too hard for me :(. Good job on clean-looking game!

themeorch 2014-12-09 19:34

So simple, yet so addictive. I appreciate that the difficulty ramps up very quickly, since you have to start back at the beginning whenever you fail. The color palette and audio suit the game nicely.

madameberry 2014-12-09 20:07

I'm so bad at this game.
It would make a great mobile game though!

jthistle 2014-12-09 20:09

Make it mobile and it could be the next flappy bird... great job :)

sumguy67 2014-12-09 20:09

Really fun game. Would love to play on mobile. Gets pretty difficult fast but it's really fun.

aare 2014-12-09 20:09

Better than flappy bird - so simple yet so brilliant :D

boxedmeatrevolution 2014-12-09 20:13

Nice and polished, and it's a cool arcade-y/phonegame-y idea.

joshua_burr 2014-12-09 21:15

I enjoyed that. Simple but fun. My top score was 14.

huntthewumpus 2014-12-09 21:17

Like others said, this would make a great mobile game. I like the simple graphics.

shampop 2014-12-09 21:18

You have to sell it, on phone maybe ?
It's a really good and addictive game !

ulydev 2014-12-09 22:32

Great game ! Can't get past 12 :p

thingostudios 2014-12-09 22:36

Makes me think of Flappy Bird in that it's very simple yet well-designed, and I could see a thousand variants on this game getting released on mobile. I like the sound effects, actually-- you slowly have to increase your speed, and the rhythm of the keypresses is fantastic.

ferraware 2014-12-09 22:44

Nice one-button game, simple yet fun. Would've loved to see some more courses, power-ups, and other runners. Really fun though

ryusui 2014-12-10 00:12

A one-click racing game, brilliantly executed. My one - ONE - gripe is the abrasive SFX, but this game could give Flappy Bird a run for its money with some expansion. Maybe make the scenery change every few points, maybe add some music...

goro 2014-12-10 01:56

Simple, cool and really very addictive!

davidlv 2014-12-10 06:07

A very simple game, but very fun.

jrap 2014-12-10 07:28

I am hesitant to say how long I played this for.
You'll find me in the highscores as Jraap.
One day I will miss my kids' soccer game because i will be playing this game.

vltrauiolet 2014-12-10 09:09

excellent execution of a simple (but very clever!) idea :D

hundredhundred 2014-12-10 10:22

This is my type of game. Simple, Addictive and Bloody "flappy bird" level frustrating ahaha ! I want this on my phone now! Awesome entry keep it up!

sanguine 2014-12-10 11:30

Really addictive! The leaderboards really motivated me and I loved the rhythm based gameplay.

jpmit 2014-12-11 11:14

Great. I think it is a screen rather than a track though, no? ;)

joelthebergman 2014-12-12 01:55

Haha reminds me of an old Atari game.

neithr 2014-12-12 02:30

Thank you very much for the feedbacks, All! :)
As for your suggestion, I will port it on mobile. I have ported it into mobile and it worked very well (It was easy to port it thanks to Haxeflixel and Haxe).
The only I have to take care now is the account for the submission xD.

Also, sorry for the difficulty, but I made it like that because it might be a bit boring if the speed is constant :D.

@JoshuaBurr: Wow, my score was 14 too xD.

@jrap: I checked your score in leaderboard, your score defeated mine :D.

@jpmit: I don't know what is called actually, but since it is looping and you have to go around it, I called it track instead xD.

insality 2014-12-16 15:41

nice one!^)
Orange LD31 trend everywhere ;]

Great simple idea! good job

dream-of-sleeping 2014-12-16 17:01

Loved it. So far 18 is my highest.

raxsus 2014-12-16 18:33

Reminded me a lot of Atari games. Amazing how much fun it was!

lereveur 2014-12-16 22:00

So simple, so frustrating, so... Wait, what ?! I spent so long time on this game !?
Well done :D

ithildin 2014-12-17 00:21

You can't get simpler and at the same time more addictive than this. Great! :D

Lucariatias 2014-12-20 12:22

There wasn't really much to this - it's a jam game, but it felt like it could have been made in the compo. There aren't many interesting game mechanics, and it's quite frustrating to play. It does feel like it could make it on mobile, though, with the short attention span of that audience. Maybe it just isn't my sort of thing.

papygaragos 2014-12-24 10:56

Too bad there isn't much more to it... cool concept, but it is lacking some variation

neithr 2015-01-11 02:47

@all:
thanks for playing and also thanks for the feedbacks and the critiques :D.
