Really nice game. I think that you should add a thing that tells you how close it is. Also, you should probably get rid of the "mood" category.

Nice game but so hard. I did it in the easiest mode and I don't want to imagine the hardest one :)
Cool. Really hard. Would like to invert the mouse. :D
Fun game, I really enjoyed the names of the difficulties :P
Pretty fun and rather difficult (high score is 21 on medium).
Very nice controls, got up to 250m at 2m/s
Fun little game! It's really fast paced but I would really have liked if you could skip the timer at the beginning as it got a little bit annoying over time. But overall great job!
@dreadloaf Thanks. In a future build (post-jam) I'll remove/reduce the timer and/or add a skip setting (or shortcut).
Seriously a good job. Simple and to the point.
I liked the challenge of this game. Overall feedback: Make the first part of the level a straight path so you can get a running start. I noticed sometimes I would get unlucky with getting a gap right in front of me at start. Make the countdown less, like half of what it is. Otherwise, no problems! I liked it a lot.
I didn't like this one so much. Maybe its just my luck but I couldn't get very far. I consider myself a patient person and i was just barely tapping the button and still found myself launching the player controller off the ledge. I kept trying, and kept dying. I really think its my luck was bad. the levels that generated for me were far to difficult. In theory its a good game, just wasn't fun for me. great work on its completion though!
@rikoclon I made the game more hard than I thought so I think it's something normal.
Pretty simple but great job overall :D
@mrjoshuamclean I will add the inverted mouse on the post-jam build

It's hard to get used to the gameplay of this game - it's easy to slip off of platforms and it takes a couple of tries to get past some of the longer ones. But it is doable, so it's altogether actually a pretty good runner-type game. However, I do think that it would be possible to refine movement in some way so it feels less slippery.
The main problem is that it's super frustrating mainly due to the timer at the beginning. When you die after four seconds three times in a row it's really annoying to have to wait 6 seconds to even get another go. (Especially because you have to wait one or two seconds after you die to hit the restart button...)
I found that jumping wasn't actually very useful, because it's so hard to actually land on a platform, and even if you do land on a platform, you almost always fall off immediately after you land because it's hard to get oriented.
I also would like to be able to change the difficulty without restarting the game, to see what some of the other difficulties are like.
As it were, I'm not even sure if a difficulty of 6 is possible, as I only got to 27 meters running basically straight.
