Fun little game. Could use some more gameplay elements like powerups but who am I to talk, I am also completely guilty for not adding enough gameplay to my game :P. Enjoyed playing your game though!

i didn't enjoy so much... and the game is impossible to play.
Good concept! I believe a lot more can be done :) Feel free to play and rate my game: https://ldjam.com/events/ludum-dare/40/split
I liked the animated helicopter, it didn't feel like the hitbox matched the graphics though. I always try to make the hitbox a little smaller than the appearent player character so that the player, if there's a collision that doesn't match the graphics, feels lucky to almost get away with something, rather than being treated unfairly because the helicopter blade didn't even touch the building etc.
The vertical movement was a bit too slow for me, to make the game seem more dynamic in general I'd recommend rotating the player slightly in the movement direction. That way it feels a little more realistic.
For the audio, I think you should try to extend the loop you have to at least 15 seconds. Try to work with fade ins/fade outs between the loops to not make the cut so noticeable. Also there's a little clicking noise at the end of the audio file?
Game design wise I like the red balls to increase your speed, because you can try to dodge most of them and keep your speed low that way.
PS: My score was 2181 :wink:
