Nice and simple graphics. Stuck to the theme pretty well. The audio is pretty good. Pretty intuitive game. also what do the orange cells do?

The song ended long before I was done, apart from that pretty solid game! Nice graphics too and weapon sound.
Nice game, but sometimes the weapon doesn't work. The image is shaking all the time and maybe is a little bit annoying. It's a fun theme and the graphics are cool.
The graphics are really nice and the audio goes well with it. I'm not sure if this is a bug, but I don't seem to die even after hitting a bunch of obstacles. Also, not much reason to use the gun since I can just slide under the virus cells.
It's hard to tell if one should jump or slide since the laser-beams are blocked by the big black boxes that emit them. Despite that I managed to run almost 800 meters on the first try.
Being hunted by a giant roll of toilet paper is a nice touch.
Nice animation and graphics, simple concept but it works well. Sometimes the pistol doesn't seem to work, not sure why.
I liked the overall look of the game and the gameplay was simple and fun. As already aforementioned, the laser-beams were hard to read, because of the boxes. But being able to jump over each laser, even if they were at the top, there was no real need for reading them and thus to slide. The controls were a little bit strange, I think I would have chosen different keys, but with needing only shooting and jumping it was okay.
After the background music (btw nicely fitting) played through it didn't loop, thus it was pretty quiet after around the first kilometre. It was now that I realised that more sound effects, would add something to the game, e.g. jumping sound, laser beams, the roll crashing stuff.
I had two sections where I had around 200m-300m of only viruses and shooting, the randomisation maybe was a little bit off here. Sometimes when shooting, the bullets hit not the first virus in line, but the one after that. Through this, I sometimes ran in to viruses.
I stopped playing after 2km, because it became a little bit repetitive by then. You did a good job, I had fun playing, keep on!
It's a shame the rather nice music isn't looping. At around 1km in, there was a stretch when when the random generator seemed to fail and all I got was a lot of virusses you can defeat by holding enter.
The gun would sometimes target the next virus, not the one in front of you.
Really nice artwork, though. Quite a decent endless runner. I appreciated the barriers shifting position.
loved the music, shame it ended while i was still playing
Really nice game! Love the concept and the toilet paper chasing the player. The music is fitting and the controls are responsive. The graphics are also really nice.
Pretty funny! Perhaps it was too easy? After all the new obstacles were unlocked, I ended up trying to die on purpose (and even that took a while). Conceptually, though, really cool! I wonder what the guy was doing in that dark corona lab in the first place?
Quite a nice looking game! I thought the humour was pretty good! It's a shame you didn't include the humour rating. The shooting felt a lot out of place, I found that I could just hold down the shooting and spam it as I ran so it didn't make much of a difference to the difficulty. It might be a tighter game without the shooting and you just jump/slide around corona viruses.
