Thank you very much for your entry - I hope you had great fun making it :smile:
Took a little time to figure out - but cool idea :thumbsup: nicely implemented :smile:
I hope you'll drop by mine and give it a spin :wink:
:purple_heart: :dart: :frog:
it was a little hard to get underneath the planks, I didn't really know what to do. In the end, i ended up reaching the bottom first and kicking the her out of the way lol it went dark inside but we chilling outside by the flashlight, I think i won haha it was pretty fun playing with the physics and hopping around. nice work

A nice little entry, good job! Heres a few things i noticed:
- There seems to be a bit of a delay on the audio when you move - Im not sure how I get points, I just seem to get them sometimes, and sometimes it took a while before I got any. - I didnt really ever feel the need to use the kick - It doesnt seem possible to lose. I just fell straight down for a while and all the planks i hit just kinde rotated and let me through.
Theres room for improvement, but id love to give it another shot it you decide to make an update :)

Nice game. The speed effect was great and the minimap was helpful. I scored 202, is that good? 😅
Good job making this game! It took me some time to understand what I was supposed to do. As it is, the game is a bit easy, because nothing can kill the player and there's plenty of time. Nonetheless, it feels badass to jump from plank to reach the bottom!

It was really nice when I finally managed to do a downwards boost! Good job, really funny to see all the planks fall down after beating the game.

Man, anime characters make this look so much easier.
Cool concept! I really like the minimap and the sticking mechanic! However, I did think it was a bit easy since you can't really die, but nice work overall!
This was a really cool game! It was a bit difficult to maneuver myself underneath the planks to get the boost, but it was satisfying to get it. I also liked how you could see the planks falling down at the end.

Interesting concept!
I got off screen one time and couldn't get the character to show up anymore haha! But other than that, great entry :)

I wanted to download the Windows version, but the page says "access denied"!
So I played the web version and I made it to the bottom of the pit! I jumped off screen one time, and I thought I'm dead now, but my character dropped down again and I continued. I couldn't really figure out how I collected points. Is it when planks crush to the sides? I also wasn't brave enough to do the "place yourself below the plank and then kick" stunt, but I will try again!
I didn't quite get what interaction causes the sound effect.
But it's a very satisfying scene at the end!

@fraukauz Thanks for the review! The windows download version should work now :smile:

Okay, I gave it another try and played the Windows version, thank you for fixing this!
The sound effects make more sense now, and I tried out the jumping. I got 81 points, is this good? I also appreciate the mini map!!
Your game reminds me a lot of this one scene from Alice in Wonderland, when she falls down the rabbit hole and all the furniture is hovering around her. Maybe adding a few different objects besides the planks could be a funny easter egg?
Nice looking game, love the dark and textured pixel art tone. I made it to the bottom with a score around 70. It took me a bit to understand what to do / how to earn more points. But the fact that it isn't endless and there isn't a lose state makes it an interesting concept beyond other games in the "category." Really appreciate the minimap too!
