This game is incredibly hard, but super fun! I laughed so hard on the intro. Then I got into the actual game, easy controls; I spammed "speed upgrade" for a few rounds to stay away from them, but then I noticed you need to use the water tile to slow them down too.

I got to 2 or 3 upgrades in the end before they got me.

I L O V E D how you made the infinite desert impossible to go to, cause they just are way faster then you there. Well done.

Absolute great game, loved it. Easily spent 5 minutes playing.

Very funny intro, love the consistancy of art and the effort of making a background! Super difficult and can be very addictive, was funny just watching the blobs slowly get closer to me after death. Only bad thing is that there's no map walls so it was easy to get off track. Other than than, great game!

First game? This game is awesome! No bugs (that I found), intro cutscene, fun to play, this game is amazing for a first jam. Add some better animations and different modes and you got yourself an app.

@bjeaurn and @humphreysmedia thank you for your feedback! I really appreciate that ❤

Took me quite a few tries to win! It also took me till the third play to realise that you can go over the water, grass etc... but you're just slower. Really enjoyed it!

Quite an enjoyable game. Simple but nice graphics. It was surprisingly difficult at first. I do wish the "edges" of the map were more clearly marked, I kept dying there until I figured it out.

The game is very difficult, but this is due to bugs. When an enemy appears on a skid with reduced traffic, it is not affected by deceleration. Because of this obstruction for the enemies do not make sense

I like it but the enemy acceleration makes it impossible to finish

I agree that about the diffuculty, but I will always love hand drawn art. Nice work!

Funny drawings ! I liked it, even if I didn't win once aha, it's pretty funny and "childish" which is a + of course

Maybe i'm stupid but I don't understand the goal ? Is it surviving as long as possible ? But I love so musch the design :'D

deadtom 2019-10-11 12:23

Hello @alicecrd. The goal is to regain body, so you need to purchase First upgrade several times. The other upgrades are only for better survival ability.

Nice little game, the hand drawn graphics were cute! I didn't find it this hard once I understood you could slow the enemies down by having them walk through forest/mountain/water...

Since the game is played (mostly) on keyboard, it would have been nice to have the upgrades selectable without the mouse. For example have 1/2/3 or J/K/L be keyboard shortcuts so you don't need to click.

It's great for a first, I hope you'll keep the motivation and participate in other game jams!

Good game, hard to avoid the enemies, it wasn't immediately obvious what I was supposed to do. Would be cool if arms let you fight, or something like that
