Nice graphics on this one! The two themes are definitely there and working together too, which is great. I feel like the game would benefit from a few more sound effects, perhaps a sprite or two to indicate a hit/kill.

Good job! :smile:

I like the idea of having a race with the yeti :) From my point of view I think you could change the music pitch depending on the speed you're going, I just found it interesting. I've got a bit frustated because the character will crash with the rocks even if he jumps. It's pretty hard, but just changing some variables you can get a better feeling with the controls and, in general, the game. The sound effect of the ice bullet is pretty good actually. Keep working, good job :)

Great art style!!! Something that took my attention is that trees jump with you, when the yeti throws me im floating in the sky and trees are spawning there. Good mix of generes, very dynamic. I'm not sure that i can jump the stones, and i have always been slowed by them.

The concept of your game is really cool :) Great title too! I think there are some issues with the display of the trees at certain times (they seem to be misplaced either inside the ground or up in the sky sometimes). Also, if I were you I would make it a bit more obvious that the player should avoid the rocks and/or would make the game more forgiving to mistakes - I noticed that once Yeti takes the lead there is little the player can do to recover. Very nice idea though, keep it up!

For those having problems on jumping the rocks, I suggest using the double jump!

Good use of the theme & good graphics! I found the gameplay to be a bit clunky though, it was hard to tell whether A/D actually changed your speed at all, the right-click didn't seem to do much, and I could seemingly never make it over a rock in one jump. The trees popping in also made it hard to see the rocks which was frustrating. Shooting the yeti was satisfying though!

Nicely done, especially the audio. The foreground moves with the player when jumping which looks a bit weird. Still a nice game though.
