Thats a big file for a simple runner game, The art is very nice but the random placement of enemies tends to make you doomed to die quite often.

Hey, tried to download and run this but it threw an error about cooked content when I tried to launch it.

@F4KETHIS thanks for the heads up! It seems like the game is throwing that error on Macs running El Capitan, but it should work fine for people with Yosemite. I'm looking into this and will update the link when I can resolve the issue. Thanks!

Awesome suprise when it switched to 3D. That explains the longer loading. Cool idea, I had fun.

pretty fun game. mechanics are fluid. black and white art is neat. enemies are in tricky spots though! Altogether, I was impressed with how fluid it was.

I liked the animation on the main character, but the enemies could use a bit of polish. Thanks for the submission.

I really like the strategic opportunities that the laser provides when combined with the double jump. And I'm really impressed that you hid such a big secret within the game (I don't want to spoil anything). The visual aesthetic(s) is/are really nice too!

If you were to work more on this, I think the placement of enemies and pickups could be more precisely generated in order to complement the robot's jump. But as is, I had a lot of fun playing. Nice work!!

that transformation was jarring.

Good and pretty polished game. Love the visuals and mood.

Interesting switch to 3D, however it comes very sudden and I had the feeling that controlling in 3D is quite hard, due to camera reasons. But besides the 3D mode the 2D mode had good polish.

Nice clean graphics. I'm not a big fan of endless runner games though mainly cause I just get frustrated. I was playing the Web version, and it suddenly crashed. From reading the comments perhaps this was when it was suppose to switch to 3D? I didnt see that happen but would have liked to.

Neat game. A little buggy though, I always died when I entered 3D mode

Really cool shifting mechanic hampered by a incredibly difficult random placement. If you had crafted the difficultly a little better than this would be pretty sweet. The first and only time I got enough coins I immediately died due to the placement of the track.

Found it pretty tough until I discovered the double-jump, after that I enjoyed it a lot. That transition to 3D is pretty wild!
