There are some control choices that I think could be improved, for example the running forward - should I even need to press a key for that? I feel like automatically running would be a good thing.
Then the getting up from the chair requiring W is not awesome. Pressing S again should work, and much better than right now.
Wasn't sure how to "get bags". And also feel like it should have something to do with reaching your partner :)
I like how intuitive the controls are, and I love the concept - intriguing and quick to get its message across.
My only advice is to make it harder. I didn't run out of breath once. Also, my score never seems to change from 84, so I'm not sure what influences score.
Overall, 10/10 would play!! :D
I could spend hours trying to resist more time.
I need a little polish, things like a "last high score" mark that appears in the last best distance or things like that.
Really like it. Good game for mobile .
Great game!
Very good work, I love the way how the character is exhausted! So bad that there is no music :(
Congrats
