What a nice and fun game, I really liked how the game gives you points for everything, but at the same time you still avoid them...to avoid being squashed XD I think the music needs to be longer, but otherwise a game well done and fits the theme nicely I also like the simple but well drawn home screen
Good for keeping to the theme. I wasn't entirely sure what the game rules were , but I think I figured them out. Funny idea for a game.
Beautiful visuals and a very cool balancing mechanic. It makes me wonder if there's a theoretical perfect score, in which you only collect the lightest, most valuable items. I really love this idea of sort of value-density - could be explored further.
Super congratulations on a great first game.
The art and overall idea are great) Never looked at this mechanic at this angle) Thanks for the game, had a nice time playing it.
It is a great little fun game. Art is simple and nice, music is good. I think I liked the way end of the run ends is my favorite thing here, very funny)) Only one thing: I'd like controls to be a little bit more responsive, because with the current state of it, there is a point, when you left to the mercy of random, because you are too slowed and with this controls you won't be able to dodge rocks anyway. My highscore is 91)
But you did a great job! Congratulations with a great start!
Great fit with the theme! I really liked the ancient Egyptian style too. It's a little too difficult in my opinion, but that's just a personal feeling.
Nice game, i like graphics and idea of the game is very fit to the theme. Movement of falling objects too fast for me, but it is create challange :)
Nice game, but I had troubles with the difficulty. The movement of objects is way too fast, but definitely more challenging. The idea is quite impressive though. Well done :)
The game is really gorgeous !
Controls are good, the music is cool and the it fits the theme really well. Overall, the game is pretty cohesive. The only thing that frustrated me is the falling objects (wich are the main mechanic).
There are either too many of them or they fall too fast to really try to get what you want. I felt like if I was getting a "gem" is was pure randomness and nothing to do with me trying to get one.
Congratulations on the entry ! Really cool game !
nice game, my best is around 90. I like the egyptian style :)
Good job! Great music and art. the theme is respected. The speed of the falling items could be progessive and it would be better if there's no acceleration/deceleration to control the character.
Gameplay is rather straightforward and the art style is really nice especially the death.
Very nice! Great graphics and sound. Cool Ancient theme. I'll agree with the others on the difficulty, but it does make it more exciting to survive. The balance between collecting and speed is a neat idea too. Good work!
I like the Egyptian style graphics a lot, they fit the idea around the game really well. There is something poetic about being crushed by all the stuff that you collected in your greed. And the getting crushed part is also my favorite animation of the game, it is very gruesome, but cool! I played this a long time, I love score-attack games, my highest is just over 300:

I am so happy I managed to get JUST over 300, would have been so annoyed if it was like 298 :D
The mechanics are simple, but effective. Movement feels spot on and difficulty is spot on. It feels very satisfying when you get into a good flow of only picking up gems. I tried a few times with picking up gems and boots or gems and scythes, but generally I feel that this works a lot worse.
Can you beat my score? You have been challenged!
Thank you all for your kind comments and support! Your feedback will be taken into consideration when further developing the game. That is way higher than any of us could get @simon-rahnasto, I'll put your record in the description if that's okay.
Thanks again guys and gals!
