Avian by Porcus_Pie

made by Porcus_Pie for LD35 (COMPO)

An infinite runner where you can turn into a bird and glide, as well as skate along the ground

I only had around 11 hours to work on this, so I didn't have time for music or to polish it as much as I hoped
Enjoy

Edit - I'm planning on doing a post compo. Other than music, score display and other fixes, what should I add?

Fun concept! Transforming for abilities was cool (and not something I've seen in other endless runners!), and there was something just so so cool about grinding UP A RAIL in an an endless runner. Fun stuff.

Pretty good for a day's work! I agree that the grinding was pretty cool.

Good job. Loosing sight of the ground felt scary.

Very nice work for one day, and I appreciate the spritework. Grinding is fun too, but I somehow keep getting confused between the hold to glide/press to jump and the hold to slide. I just kept pressing x after grinding to jump...

I really liked the concept and always enjoyed endless runners. The graphics look nice too. I would have just implemented a score system (unless I missed it).

For 11 hours work this is a good job, would have loved to see what you could have created with more!

Considering the time you worked on it, it's pretty good, the gameplay is spot on and the grinding rails are fun, i really liked the fact that the platforms were made in 3D it somehow adds to the look of the game :)

It's nice. A post-Compo would be great

Looks nice, but how do I play? I press space and then I just stuck in this position: http://i.imgur.com/VksZ4Ur.png

There is an instructions text file, just under the download link. Space is only used to start, whilst z and x are used to play
