Nice mood here, and the minimalism in the graphics works to the game's benefit I think. Possibly too many things going on for an endless runner, and the jumping felt hard to predict, but I still enjoyed it a bunch.

Very minimal, but not in a bad way.

I wanted to like this game, but it just felt like the jumping was too unnatural, and I really couldn't get into it. It's going on my try again later list

Personally I would've dropped the shooting and given some more love to the jump mechanic. Jumping off the top of screen is abusable - you can jump over lasers etc. Some indicator to where you were going to land after jumping off the screen could've been useful. I had fun trying to master the jump though!

I think the progression of upgrades was well chosen - each ability was useful in certain situations, keeping the game challenging instead of making it too easy.
I don't have any real criticisms except the slow pace, but that's just personal preference. :)

Oh my god that thing jumps up like crazy. It was very hard to grasp a proper control with this jump. I just kept falling apart, falling past platforms, or just jumping to death.
Also falling off a ledge killed me? That was kinda weird.

Still a nice idea making an endless runner with upgrades and all. Good job
