The dash and the ability to slow down didn't feel particularly useful - I think it would be fine if you just went full speed all the time, without having to hold forward, unless other hazards like spikes or other obstacles in the stage were added.
It might've been nice to have some sort of feeling of "progress" like having the game be divided up into "stages" or something - I only replayed the game once to try and get a better score and then I mostly lost interest.
The music and graphics were cool, though, so I think this has potential to have more depth. Good work.
