Challenging and fun. I got past like the 4th level with the triple jump but couldn't make it further. Great sound work and fun.

Wow , very hard game, and i didnt expected some puzzle (running is running isnt it? What could be hard in running???) Music is a bit too repetitive but it does its job and makes some " restless mood". Some basic sounds also very appreciated (some people dont even use godgamn sfxr). Great game, good job.

"You can jump if you have space" It said it so plainly but I failed to realize the weight it would carry. Nicely done, I liked it ;)

sthor726 2018-08-13 01:18

Awesome game, the jumping felt a little wonky but otherwise is was really cool

Thats' a pretty solid entry! It's really challenging and hard, but not too much. Loving the essential style, and the concept is theme fitting. Good work broh!

Very nice presentation and game concept. I was initially confused by "collecting space" because I was going too fast and trying to jump like I would in any other platformer. I'm sure there's more that can be done with this idea.

Woaw, congrats on this very solid entry!

The graphics are simple, but with the audio it creates an excellent "mood", I love it! Gameplay-wise, it's very entertaining, and the level design is perfect. It's start easy, then becomes challenging very quickly.

Well done!

Thank you everyone for taking the time to give it a shot. :)

@triplefox your comment made me lol because I'm now imagining running straight towards a gap getting ready to jump even though it's not gonna work without the space :laughing:

This reminds me of the bit.Trip runner games. Although, how is the stickman floating in the sky.

randdir 2018-08-13 12:08

Classic, but really addictive keep it up !

rk3omega 2018-08-13 12:23

I love it! I also considered the "limited jumps" variant, but you really nailed it by making it a resource to gather and consume. And the way it was used as platforms towards the end. Well done. I have no complaints.

Very good and efficient art style! I never had any problem on knowing what to do or what happened in the game^^ And the music is good too! Well done o/

mathiouza 2018-08-13 13:46

Yeay ! I found another universe ! That was not so complex... Physics is lying ! I knew it ! '^' x) Cool game :) The music is good and the graphics works well. Nice work :)

Keep coding :)

htmichael 2018-08-13 14:06

Loved it. Really good sound track as well!

nitin-kumar 2018-08-13 14:06

Goes with the theme. Nicely designed levels(can be polished a little bit more in my opinion). Music is good and sets up the environment well.

sebo 2018-08-13 14:10

somewhat challenging, love the mechanic

One of the most fun games this event. The animation and sound design are just so good.

velvetlobster 2018-08-14 02:23

best usage of theme so far. Love the minimalistic music and aesthetics of it. Love specially the music!

inferture 2018-08-14 03:18

Very interesting take on the theme and fun to play ^^ At the very beginning though I didn't understand why I could jump sometimes and why I couldn't other times, then I saw the space counter increasing and it was the epiphany "Running at out ""space"" !" x)

ian-kettlewell 2018-08-14 03:27

I enjoyed this simple aesthetically. It felt weird in an interesting way. It was very unique!

It also was pretty fun mastering the jumps. I liked the "aha" momenet where I realized I had to go backwards after getting the jump.

glaciereclipse 2018-08-14 07:27

I love the art style and the overall mood of the game! The mechanic is simple but fun, gets very challenging once the levels progress which I enjoyed. Also amazing music!

nam-nguyen 2018-08-14 17:32

Fast paced, minimalistic platformer with programmer art, I feel you man, I went for these keywords for my game as well. Excellent play on the theme, literally running out of SPACE. The music fits the game too, I enjoyed it a lot. Great job!

teelin 2018-08-14 18:31

Really liked this game the simple style works really well and the way you play is really nice. Great work :smile:

marcovalekaz 2018-08-15 00:50

This is my favorite game so far! it stressed me out, but the limited jump mechanic is so so well done! I could play a bunch of these levels! Some seriously good game there!

sharky3188 2018-08-16 02:32

Really like the limited jumping mechanics, made for some fun challenges. Art style is simple and effective. Audio is nice and it fits well with the theme. Great entry.

brallex 2018-08-19 07:29

Hard, but fair^^ I like the idea of picking up "spaces" to be able to jump, that's a neat idea:) Great job man!

megalink 2018-08-19 10:00

Amazing job! Very challenging and well designed, I really liked the simple control scheme. Concept and theme integration was incredibly clever and innovative. Art was spectacular and the mood complimented it wonderfully. Brilliant work!

nickzangus 2018-08-19 10:00

Great take on the theme, well done!

abhis1kadian 2018-08-19 21:05

@stephen-coley Amazing man i liked ur implementation and the graphics too. Great game.

rjhelms 2018-08-21 03:13

Damn son, this one really engaged me. Normally I don't have any talent or patience for platformers, but the pacing here was spot on to keep me going and the difficulty curve really rewarded that.
