@Bloated Hippo
haha :D I should have made it more clear that babies don't slow you down though and can be run over, the same with red wagons and trees.
@AestheticGamer Interpret it as you will ;) Yeah, things got cut a lot around crunch time
I love the little motivational game over screens. This is the type of thing I stick as my default webpage. Good way to the start the day.
Also, the wolf is hilarious.
@Jhelle Thanks! Yeah, if the bus is moving too fast my shotty/quick collision code misses it. Also it only checks the front of the bus. I should have just done AABBs instead.
@kunzbe I tried to find a balance between too short and too tedious for the casual LD voter to want to finish
@psychomonster What could be better? Thanks :)
@lightnarcissus As you can imagine, there was more planned but it had to be cut haha :D I'm glad you liked what was in.
@negativeview I think I understand what you mean and I will take notes.
The graphics remind me of old PC games so it actually brings back good memories to me, even though it's probably going to be a problem for most people, I actually appreciated it.
At first, it was hard to understand what exactly was negative and positive but after a few games I did get it. The game ran very smoothly and I appreciated the fact that it was on a curve - so you get extra points on innovation from me.
I would've loved to see some more organic movement from the character, ie. to make the equations behind movement a bit less visible. Add randomness? Interpolation? Something :)

@nddrylliog I definitely should have put better instructions, probably be biggest regret outside of not having the dinosaur in the actual game. And alright, thank you, I've been needing to put more randomness in my games for a while, it hasn't become part of my style yet. Now that someone has said it I will definitely try harder at that :) Thank you again for the comment!
Loved the tune, and nograts for the graphics really loved it!
