I uploaded a test build. Sorry. It's fixed now. The precise change was https://github.com/euske/ld39/commit/f39cb8cd9ae0e9901d802e7826838e29553081ed

Oh! I really thought I would make it! This was a fun game and the snow was harsh and fun. I remembered the old commodore games. Music is fun too.. Though I fell down into water quite many times until I figure the space button out :) Thanks for the fun.

Really liked the weather changes, the music changes and the parallax in the ocean waves.

Game was totally unfair at the end though... *Anyway, thanks for trying.*

:thumbsup:

Yes, I did really think I would make it :D Loved the game, very well done! The only improvement I can think of would be that the player should probably lose more height after a collision. Wonderful, excellent job! :D

:p

Great music, great graphics, annoying sound, very funny, will give old people heart attacks. Happy LD39.

Hmm I found the instructions very counter-intuitive, "TAP A BUTTON", so I tapped as fast as I could, but you actually need to tap and hold longer with some rhythm to not die. Also it should be "mouse" button as keyboard buttons don't work. The lightning bolts were confusing too, I thought they might restore my power, but they didn't seem to have an effect. Maybe a stamina bar would be useful. As soon as it got to the snow level I died almost immediately. Maybe make the transitions between stages more gradual and say how it affects things.

I didn't get further than "moar enemies" stage, but the weather changes and enemy fleets were amazing. Looks good.

Finally played on PC to hear the sounds. Not bad. Still no good ending. :/ Hopefully next time.

That was fun, although I struggled to get beyond the snow level. Your pixel art was great. The gameplay made me think that the world needs a game that's a combination of Flappy Bird and Joust. Nicely done.

I really love this game, especially the very end.

The one thing which wasn't clear to me is what actually happens when you get hit by things (apart from you guy's face going red).

Apart from that, the ending was perfect and I really like this. :)

I found it really good, however the same jump sound was a little irritating with the rate you needed to click it, I would suggest having multiple different sounds with slight variations. Other than that good work!

That ending!

I like the way the flying mechanic works, how instead of going complete button mashing, there's half a second where you can hold the button.

I liked the game a lot. Got me a few tries to reach the ending, oh this ending ! The snow part was so hard, and I think that in the end you made it automatically slows down. I liked the animations on the characte, they was so funny ! At the end I just spammed the space button when I reached the... It's not an ending but it's an infinite game ! Good funny game !

Hey man, cool game. The graphics didn't look great in the screenshot but in-game it all meshed together really well. The sound effects were pretty good too, it didn't get annoying over time.

Really juicy and cute graphics especially the parallax scrolling wavy blue water, the different weather effects look beautiful. Nice and simple concept, but a bit hard at the end and tiring to always press some key...
