Simple game, very well executed. the music sound design and visual design is excellent. I really admire that you guys apparently made a roll animation for the fail state, it looks great.

Wow, the graphics are stunning! Also the music is a jam. I am addicted, I really want to get to the next sector. I'm not very good though, so far I've only gotten to sector 2. I love how you fall directly from your previous run into the next run seamlessly. This is one of those games that makes me say "Just one more try" dozens of times over and over again. Two thumbs up!

Nice effort on the graphics. The looping was also nicely handled visually. Thanks.
