Cool game! Did you record the music yourself? Not bad.

Fun concept, but the vision area is really too short...

I loved the music! You play so well! Nice mechanics and gameplay, but what really catches my attention was the song! Well made!

I got 5558.

I am embarrassed to admit the first five or so games I played completely backwards, dodging the goblins and smashing open crates (since that's the usual way to go!) and felt reassured that my character was not getting angry.

After suddenly dying a few times I started to realize I had it all backwards, and that crates are bad, goblin impacts good, and rage desirable!

Also, I learned that goblins sound kind of like cats.

Oh, and the song! Almost forgot to say that it's awesome you recorded a live song on acoustic guitar, nice work.

Thanks for all comments ^^

@Dooskington
Yes, I've recorded all the sounds with my mobile. Fortunately I also play a guitar, so it helped a lot :)

@onilink
I've tried to make this game fair for all platforms. I'll think about the improvements.

@pkenney
Sorry for that. I should add some info about the logic, but this time limit... But your final score is pretty high! gz! :)

It's really hopeless to see, please move the character to the bottom of the screen

Good game, just a few complaints:
- Vision radius is too small and it makes it hard to react to ANYTHING.
- Just try to hold one direction - you will bounce out of wall and slow down until you release your finger off the screen
- A little bit too dark sprites. May be a personal preference though.

This is a nice little game, I like the music and simplistic art, very nicely done!

Nice concept, was a bit hard because the player was in the middle of the screen and the time to react was quite fast. It crashed after I entered the glowing door.

Fun runner !
You did a nice use of the theme, even if sometimes it's not clear what you can go into or not.
Good job !
