Getting an error when trying the web version through chrome on a mac.
An error occured running the Unity content on this page. See your browser's JavaScript console for more info. The error was:

If this abort() is unexpected, build with -s ASSERTIONS=1 which can give more information.
I get an error when I try to load the page. :( Chrome.

Played on Web, Firefox, works like a charm :) Nice use of the theme, some areas are unfair though. Still fun!

The Web (Firefox/IE) version works.
Neat game. Although the levels need to be connected (instead of having to go back to the main menu).

Hi, many of you reported us errors concerning the WebGL version.
We are trying to fix it as soon as possible but the errors seems to come from an incompatibility between the Unity WebGL player and Chrome Navigator.
We are trying to reproduce the issue but all seems to work well on our computers. Please indicate your navigator and your OS (Windows, MacOS or Linux Version) when reporting a crash.
Meanwhile you can use our Web stable version (only available on Firefox and Internet Explorer) by clicking the download link "Web". You can also download the .exe application if you are on Windows.
Thank you for your feedback and enjoy our game!
The way that the game jumped back to the main menu after every stage was annoying, but otherwise, this is a fairly nice game. I would like to mention, however, that I thought it was a bit odd that the character stayed in place after it was pushed back, in most runner games, they will eventually move back to the default position. I'm wondering if this is intentional or not.

Quite a lot of levels, not everything works as advertised though. Sometimes you can jump onto a virus and slide right off like nothing happened, sometimes you can run on opposite colored blocks. I'd prefer less levels with more polish. It would be neat to give the player some feedback on what killed them before restarting, it's kinda abrupt.
Great music, although you never get to hear it kick off. My game also suffers from this, admittedly.
Nice minimalist game, easy to get into

The music had me bobbing my head. difficulty curve could have been a little less steep on those levels and maybe some sort of purple phase mode would have smoothed out some of the more annoying switches. Good concept made me feel tension at the levels.

Fun game, and the music was pretty good. I liked logo design for the title screen and the level design.
I am getting the same error as the others using the WebGL version, the other versions are unavailable for me since I am using Linux.
I tried Windows version now. It's a nice game, and quite interesting mechanics for two buttons. It's really hard though! It would be nice if music kept playing as I died, as it would have felt smoother. Still a nice entry.
Challenging fun, thanks for making it.

WebGL errors have been fixed as promised! Now it should work correctly for everybody on any platform! If you experience other problems, please report them.
I love the idea and the level design!
The tutorial is too long for me, longer than several levels and the navigation between levels is tedious.
Anyways I enjoy the game! So, congratulations! ;)

Thank you Haokarlos!
The navigation between levels and the menu is temporary. The jam was too short in time to permit us to work on all aspects of the game. But we planned to expand the game content and functionalities during the following weeks and month. A link to the "post jam" game will be added soon in the description.
Stay tuned for more info!
Nothing groundbreaking but certainly a ton of fun. Felt the most like a "real game" compared to alot of things I've played.
Okay, after the updated WebGL version I get a bit further.
But my browser (both Firefox and Chromium) gets stuck on the following error:
An error occured running the Unity content on this page. See your browser's JavaScript console for more info. The error was:Uncaught unknown compression method

Hi MemoryLeek,
If it stay impossible for you to play on the WebGL version, we have made a Linux executable that you can download by clicking on "Linux" in the Download links.
(It's possible that the downloaded versions are unavailable, we do a lot of small bug fixes, and uploading the changes to our server can take some time)

Hi everybody!
The WebGL version will be unavailable during a time laps of approximately 3 hours, we are trying to resolve some memory problems that can cause a game crash.
You can still play on the Web Player (Firefox & IE only).
Sorry for the inconvenient.
@Switchiers: Thank you! The Linux build worked great. A very fun, frustrating and addicting game. I dare say it's among the best I've played so far this LD :)

Thank you MemoryLeek!
We are working on a dedicated website for the game. On this website you will find all the download links to our "post jam" game versions.
We will keep you informed!

Maaaaaan these levels are haaaaard. Mega rage game, amazing work.
It remind another entry for an older LudumDare session, but I forget the name. A good game with an interesting mechanics. There is many opportunities with this project - maybe something more frenetic. Music is great. Well done ++

Was able to play the Web Player version in IE. It isn't bad but exceptionally difficult past level 1. I never could get past the first red block on World 1 Level 2. No matter what I always hit the virus. I like the idea and the graphics looked good.

Wowww.. you weren't kidding about the difficulty, I tried world 2, but there's only so many times I can yell at the computer before I just give up. Nice beginning, can see this turning into something bigger.
WebGL having unknown compression method error.

Oh, some friends from Epitech!
Really nice game, especially for a first entry!
I really love how the game feels, music and visual works well. The gameplay works perfectly fine, it's damn hard, but that's exactly my kind of game!
I managed to pass the world 1 and the 2 first levels of world 2 for now.
Maybe the game needs a bit more "polish", like a better menu, a softer transition when you die, etc... But hey, you made that in 72h!
Congratulations, and good luck for the future!
Like the idea. The second world first level is much too hard, i tried for ages and only made the first jump/switch once.
Kinda fun - very difficult to get the timing right when switching between colors...
Nice concept :D
