I actually ran out of time in the development of the game but I did not want to miss out the chance to thank my girlfriend, Bia Gascรณn, for being the main source of inspiration for story behind this piece!
(Ps. I swear it is not her fault it came out the way it did)
I will be submitting YouTube videos of the development soon (probably tonight) so stay tuned if you wanna watch me suffer!
I really like it!!!
Hey @aret24 ! Thanks a lot for your comment! It is really nice to see that someone managed to enjoy the game being what it is! :D
The intro was promising, but the game itself was too simple. The audio made the game really fun, though. Nice!
uh
Hey @girania ~ I agree. Thing is, this was my first jam and I had:
1) To take my grandma to the airport,
2) My father's birthday,
3) Father's day,
4) Get some things ready for uni that's about to start.
And... I was really sick. So I probably only had about 6 hours to make this ><
In any case, I hope you stick around for my next submission in December. :)
@nehvis ~ I feel ya.
will be looking forward to it!
I red about your time issues, and I love when even with little to no time and a lots of problems, jammers still manage to create something. This little game represent the love for gamedev and the spirit of Ludum Dare.
Nice entry and thanks for your work and your temperance, so I'll rate everything with 3 stars.
have a nice day!
@memel06 ~ Woah! You've left me absolutely speechless. This is the tenth time I try to write this reply but I can't properly put into words how stunned your comment has left me.
I am just really glad to have finally joined the community of jammers. Y'all are what keeps me going.
Btw, I haven't posted the videos yet 'cause YouTube doesn't seem to be allowing me to -_-
Obstacles appear immediately in the upper half of the screen and I immediately take damage without a chance to dodge :(
@alexey-akulovich ~ thanks for your comment! That's because of how I'm actually making the infinite gameplay happen - just looping it in one screen. If I ever touch this project again, I'll definitely improve it (:
Evocative of '09 appstore games. The intro was very promising, and the music loop was pretty catchy, but then it descends into insurmountable rng. There's some pretty serious ludonarrative dissonance between that nice intro and the gameplay. I would keep that idea in a back pocket and make a not "avoid falling blocks" game. Keep it up
Great you didn't give it up due to time issues! I liked the intro, and the concept. Obstacles appearing right under me, were really annoying. I must admit that I didn't play it for hours at night, but in 6 hours, nice work!
@sunny-sun ~ Hey Sunny! Thanks for your comment! I kinda guessed that most people would get hyped by the intro and then disappointed by the rest but, nonetheless, I am really happy you found the music loop catchy - it was one of the things I enjoyed doing the most (and probably just the third song I've ever made). Anyway, keep an eye out for my next game December! I won't disappoint :D
@pla ~ Hey Pla! Thanks for commenting on the game! I really had to rush with making the endless loop thingy so obstacle placement ended up pretty crappy. In any case, I'll keep your comment in mind if I ever decide to touch the project again and improve it!
nice project man ...
@paulo-augusto ~ Thanks a lot, dude! :D
Woah! We've reached over 20 ratings! Thanks a lot everyone! I'll be revamping the game page soon with some fancy markdown to make it more appealing then just this boring intro text xD ~~ stay tuned
Alright! Remade the game page and updated the logo image for something that wouldn't be covered by the game name and compo tags when it is displayed in the games page :laughing:
Check it out:

Let me know what you think!
cool idea, I think you should probably change it so that the obstacles aren't spawned so that they just pop up, now they appear seemingly out of nowhere and the speed of the player is too slow to actually avoid them. Some background-picture would have helped the player see more exactly where they are, now it is a little hard to see how fast you are falling. You really only get a sense of your speed once the obstacles appear and then you take damage. The font is cool though.
Still, you got a lot done in 6h, which is impressive. Well done!
Hey @wildcard ! Thanks a lot for your comment!
The overall gameplay with obstacles turned out a bit wacky. Also, I was planning on adding a background but couldn't make it in time to draw something I enjoyed. Glad you liked the font, though! ;D
