I think the audio fits pretty well to the visuals - the line one jumps around on looks a bit like what an oscilloscope could paint, when given these kinds of beep-sounds. However, the "music" isn't really synchronized to the level (or is it?). Overall, it's a fun little game, fits well with the theme!"},{"author_name":"daandruff","author_uid":"3244","time":"Apr 29, 2013 @ 5:38pm","epoch":1367256780,"text":"The music was really annoying...

Could do with being a bit more fast paced and maybe make the jumps smaller, or different heights of jump.

I'd have preferred you stuck with the traditional beep, but hooked it in when you jump. The jumping feels a little sluggish and sometimes you can get in a jump loop - jumping continuously without break - which feels unfair when it ends in death. I thought the motif was morbid but decent. What if you added three lives, and every death ends with a flatline and Dr. Yorwba yelling, "CLEAR!""},{"author_name":"alts","author_uid":"18267","time":"May 14, 2013 @ 3:12am","epoch":1368500820,"text":"The premise isn't very original. The implementation does fit the theme well, and I was a fan of the icons used. The jumping felt floaty, which isn't a good feeling when, at later points in the game, precise jumping is critical. I couldn't tell at first if the sound was generative or not. I think it might be interesting to use the sound to telegraph upcoming obstacles."}],"images":["ld26\/14693-52c96ebc50c66724ea5252655eb2bb41.jpg"],"links":[{"url":"https:\/\/www.dropbox.com\/s\/jzeivag3abot9db\/SpikeLine.zip","text":"Windows (.zip)"},{"url":"https:\/\/www.dropbox.com\/s\/mdwq7fq4026yd3n\/SpikeLine.love","text":"Source (.love)"}],"metadata":{"g_key":"26517","g_author":"14693","g_event":"LD26","g_eventkey":"16","g_subevent":"COMPO","g_urlkey":"26547","g_title":"Spike Line","g_status":"UCHK1","g_place":"1045","g_commentcount":"23","g_site2_node_id":"0","g_hide":"N","g_has_icon":"Y","g_rqueue":"0","g_random":"0"},"nds":[],"node":null,"orig_images":["http:\/\/ludumdare.com\/compo\/wp-content\/compo2\/\/233892\/14693-shot0.PNG-eq-900-500.jpg"],"text":"Spike Line is a simple one-button side-scrolling platformer made with LOVE (love2d.org)<\/p>","title":"Spike Line"}
