This is a very fun game and very easy to pick up. I got slightly addicted and kept telling myself "1 more" -- I could definitely see myself just playing this to kill a few minutes.

Really fun and polished little game! The movement is satisfying, and I really like the visual effects! Really feels like a frantic run for your life! My only critique is that it's a little hard to see the player sometimes.

Honestly a really fun game! Extremely challenging, but fun
An absolute blast of a game ! The gameplay feels super nice and addictive, you really want to try again everytime you die to try get a better score. It also has a lot of depth to it : these simple mechanics can really be combined together in impressive and creative ways. I could totally pay for a full version of this game.
The music is excellent, the sound effects too, really fits the pace and action of the game. The pixel art graphics and the lights help create a really particular atmosphere that I really liked.
Altough the take on the theme is not the most original one ( an infinite scrolling game ), it certainly uses it extra well, and with a lot of polish put into it.
Overall, you did an excellent job ! Great game !
Challenging and funny
This game is so awesome! Great music, super gameplay and the graphics are stunning! Enjoyed every second! Well done!
I wish there was a more direct control over character.
An interesting game, but not easy at first, there was tension and lack of understanding in management. But it was fun and interesting and very beautiful special effects: lasers, lava, etc.).
Really enjoyed this one! Had a slight problem with the web version not sowing the full width of the game when not in full-screen but other than that it work as i think was intended. Very cool entry my best score where somewhere in the 2k range i think.
That light effects
Awesome arcade game! The only caveat I see is that you are not visible when you are pushed by the green beams.
I really liked this! Totally feels like a hidden gem. There's loads of gamefeel and positive feedback to let you know if you've done something right. Even though I didn't exactly know what I was doing I knew I had to go up.
Nicely done, had fun with this.
Super hard to see then you get hit by the lasers, but I am awake now! lots of fun and juice (maybe a little bright:)) - Well done!
I think I beat the game. I was going up at light speed and then it just stopped following me. I will now sail forever in the infinite void, for I AM THE INEVITABLE NOW.

congratulations @autogibbon you ascended :smile:
A really simple mechanic executed very well. A challenging game that keeps you coming back to try again and again. When failure is inevitable it is important to get that balance between frustration and reward and I think you have got the balance about right. With my ability (or lack thereof) having a more forgiving start might have been nice.
A well polished game with good graphics and pleasing behaviour/animation of 'the character'. All-in-all, a very impressive and well put together game.
Well done!
