Well done. Amazing concept, but you need to allow the player to play right after he dies. Even the shortest delay can feel like an eternity when you are frustrated ;). Overall, however, it was amazing!

Absolutly amazing... A bit hard but really cool ! I love the music. Is there a place where I can download it !

soulbound 2015-12-16 16:02

This is a really fun game. The music is also really well done.

codecranker 2015-12-17 03:51

Super hard to control but well done.

obsessivenerd 2015-12-17 04:46

This is really awesome. The look and sound were on point. If you made this for mobile (using the gyro to change direction and single tap to jump I would think) it would be an excellent mobile game. Really good work on this!

Solid mechanics got a score of 11. Looking at how many comments there are this game definitely deserves more plays

bobrocket 2015-12-17 14:54

This game is really hard to get used to, reminds me a lot of Super Meat Boy! Good job :)

robert_steiner 2015-12-17 15:04

This game is one that raises the violence :) So difficult.

digitaldude555 2015-12-17 15:06

Tough but fun to play, liked the music. Best score I could do was 10.

kualitygames 2015-12-17 15:14

Looks like a solid game.

astro-cat 2015-12-17 15:22

Too hard play it with dat controls, but looks like nice!

nuggetteam 2015-12-17 15:26

Original gameplay, though a bit hard. But it is a nice game overall!

zanzlanz 2015-12-17 15:26

Excellent use of the controls them - it's simple but it's what makes the game so fun. Very nice work - it's very fun, simple, pretty, and totally rage inducing! ;)

You should consider making a full version (for mobile?) :D

eddy93 2015-12-17 15:37

Obviously this game is pretty difficult, but I think you guys have done a great job with that! It's a typical game where you notice you get better the longer you play.
It's a very solid game with a good replay-value

newbeings 2015-12-17 15:45

A really polished and well realized jam game. Awesome work! Reminds me of Swing Copters.

xgor 2015-12-17 15:53

Quite a fun little game. It would be nice if the character slightly decelerated every time you turn so you got a better sense of weight for the character but that's just my two cents.

riftpoint 2015-12-17 15:57

Cool game! The art and the juicyness in this game are amazing. It was very hard haha

sputnik 2015-12-17 16:01

Ouch! this is hard! Really great work here!

wine 2015-12-17 16:03

Damn! It's addictive XD

justinooncx 2015-12-17 16:04

Well-polished game with enjoyable gameplay. Well done! Definitely has a mobile vibe to it.

felixreeve 2015-12-17 16:06

Good game, fun mechanics and polished enough to be enjoyable! I feel like the camera shouldn't rise until you've left the start zone, just to allow the player to get used to the controls?

rocketship 2015-12-17 16:07

It's devilishly hard but in a way that doesn't make you just give up but makes you want to get better. Very well done in that aspect. The controls feel very snappy and good and the graphics are also pretty. Special mention for the excellent sounds, the background music is so good.

green-lightning 2015-12-17 16:08

The game looks, sounds and feels very good and the controls are new and interesting. Good job!

However, it is waaaaay too hard and I only got a score of 7 :(
Maybe add multiple levels of difficulty next time, please?

split82 2015-12-17 16:31

Amazing feel, graphics, effects, sound and everything!. Unfortunately I guess it would be even better with normal platformer controls :) Anyway awesome game.

vrachlab 2015-12-17 16:35

Very hard and very fun. nice work :)

tribrain 2015-12-17 16:44

I think the game is bit complicated to domain though being there only 2 controls, the animations and art in general are good, also the music and the concept are great!!

propter_ludus 2015-12-17 16:59

Very well crafted entry!
The concept was very fun.
My feedback would be to show more of the top of the screen.
Many times I would die because of an obstacle I hadn't been able to see.

Loved the music, good job!

bubsypoochies 2015-12-17 17:04

This game is as cute as brutal! The game mechanic feels really polished and presentation-wise it's plain awesome: small details like the camera shocks and the particle systems make it visually stunning.

Difficulty is unforgiving, but it's also part of the fun. We've competed against each other to achieve the best record, so an online ranking would really add up.

A really really well produced package!

lullaby 2015-12-17 17:31

Nice entry, the game is very hard but offers a good replay value. The music works but I turned it off after a few tries :) Well done!!

dreyan 2015-12-17 18:47

Excellent vibe, obviously this would transition to mobile very well. Great artwork and sound deign, top quality game

mat 2015-12-17 20:52

Nice little game, a bit hard but that's what's good !

devark 2015-12-17 22:01

Great feel, music and graphics. the controls are really tight, though I feel like the constant horizontal movement is there only to fit the theme. it adds a layer of unnecessary difficulty to me - I'd have preferred normal platforming controls. the game is really polished though, the exploding crate effect is super satisfying! Great job!

jim3wg 2015-12-18 08:14

Very hard and addictive

drzanuff 2015-12-18 12:24

Hard game. But i liked it. Just how people said, make the restart game faster. And the music really fits!

adamk33n3r 2015-12-18 15:37

Super great! Well done. Really hard but it is fun. Has that meat boy vibe.

ssodelta 2015-12-19 13:38

Such a nice design and animations! but he is runner sooo fast :D I died so much in the beginning that I kinda gave up. still nice done!!

randomhuman 2015-12-19 18:09

Excellent game, but really hard.

ewchap 2015-12-21 06:06

Real tough but very well put together. Great job

tipyx 2015-12-21 10:27

Not the best controls but everything else is pretty good :)

gamepopper 2015-12-21 13:32

Those deaths were brutal, I think the level starts way too hard with those spikes on the first platform, but the music was nice, graphics were good and the gameplay was solid nonetheless.

jdoughty 2015-12-26 04:52

Fantastic! Reminded me alot of flappy bird with its difficulty. The particles and sounds were great as well!

ddrkirbyisq 2015-12-26 23:23

FYI: They didn't make the music. Read the description, everybody 9_9

Very nice job! Someone needs to remind me to make something like this for LD next time around. :)

Your controls and difficulty are fine, despite what other people might think. I would agree that the very beginning is a tad difficult for a first-timer. I don't really think that's a fault; perhaps it was a design choice to forcibly teach the player the basic mechanics of the game right away?

The main character's animation is hilarious, though you don't really notice it at first. What the heck is he doing? hahaha...

FYI, if you run to the left in the very beginning and keep jumping as you reach the left side of the screen you can clip through and die to the spikes on the second floor =X oops!

Great job guys :)
