I could stare at this all day, the visuals are beautiful. The mood is really chill, but it's challenging enough to keep me paying attention to every jump so I don't plummet to my doom!

Nice chill game, made me think of superflight. The vibe is real but I think it needs more things that can kill you, because the run never really ends unless you really want it to. I like the graphics though, simple but really set up the mood.

I really apreciated it, very nice gameplay, one I fell straight trough a platform (probably I was falling fast!) but it counted as touched so no death and I recovered, really nice for high scores, but if it will have a leaderboard the "jump fast-fall" inplace on the starting platform should be fixed because it allows for infinite points

Really nice, chill game. I really liked how the background color changes when you touch a new platform. Very aesthetically pleasing!

Simple graphics showing a lot of cool traits. I find it quite relaxing. The only criticism I have is that maybe being able to fall for longer at a time. That would make it feel more smooth which I think would add to the mood =)

Very nice feeling in this game.
Really loved the graphic aspect, the color change on each platform adds a lot to the atmosphere.

The game is fun - my major issue was with the controls being a bit confusing (on the web version), but other than that - it's a solid game!

My head phones were off the first time I played and I was thinking that the only thing this game needed was music and maybe some sort of lifesaver! Saw the comments saying the music was good and replayed after figuring out my headphones were of and DAAAMN this game is soothing! Well done!

Simple yet so beautiful and good. It has a relaxing effect, perfect game to play when you want to just sit back and relax.

fell through a platform while dying once, pretty fun other then that, would look a little better if the yellow cubes were ovals instead

-Fun: (2.5)
It's relaxing, and I would like to have some more gameplay...
Or some of the Hengen humor

-Innovation: (2.5)
The game is a casual fun. It incorporates the theme as core gameplay, but nothing much else.

-Theme: (4.5)
getting points by falling, so falling deeper is advancing your score is the core of the game, collecting the gold blocks
adds something, while falling (i guess it's time based) to deep leads to failure

-Grafics: (2.5)
squares & blocks are a bit basic - but effective.
changing the background by hitting squares is gimicky.

-Audio: (3.5)
relaxing soundtrack, soundeffects are ok, though there could be a special sound for getting one of the gold bricks

-Humor: (-)
Why not capitalising on the usual entertainment af a typical hengen post?

-Mood: (4)
Audio & style are very relaxed. The true challenge is to keep attention, so you don't fall to deep.

-Overall: ( 2.5 + 2.5 + 4.5 + 2.5 + 3.5 + 4 -> 3,5 )
