Nice and quite hard, however nothing happens when I click 'next level', is there only 1 level in game?

Some rock have too big collision field, make it harder to dodge than it looks.
The music and art fits the game quite well, but some tiles(especially those with dark-red patterns) are shifted, is it some kind of bug?
Will be fun to play on the phone while on the train.
Good work!

Great concept and not too easy. I would personally like some type of a progress bar to keep track of progress.

should make the main character look less like clip art, his design clashes way too much with the rest of the game

Cute game! I think like someone else mentioned the main character should also have been pixel art. Overall the game could use some polish but it's fun to play for a few tries and harder than it seems. Well done!

Nice game ! The gameplay and tthe music fells nice together . And I think the difficulty bar is right where it should be . At the end , I really though I would survive , but no , I died , like everyone would when falling this high .

@feor thanks yeah thats true but we were in some kind of a rush for the main character and the graphics!

Very good game! After a little tryhard I managed to finish it :)
The graphics are great, the music follows the style of the game and the fact that it is simple in its concept does not make it less interesting :)

Super boulot, c'est dommage d'avoir retiré le hinge joint qui était assez marrant mais c'est quand même un très belle réussite

There should be an easy-mode where you have 3 lives or something for people like me :D

Fun game, but a bit too hard because of the collisions being this big.

@xoreaxeax We were short on time so we only had 2 days instead of 3 so it wasn't possible but it's certainly a good idea!

Really challenging gameplay and cool music, and the level design is good too! Maybe it will be easier if can make the hitbox of the obstacle smaller.
🎤 Massillon Magic
30. Apr 2021 · 09:49 UTC
@yword Yeah but if we did it smaller you could almost phase trough them but we will try next time

I found it really hard, but the graphics are really cool and the controls are intuitive. I did got the idea that there might be a non-linear acceleration when you kept an arrow pressed. I really like how he falls and moves around from left to right :) Great job!

The graphic are great even if I would like to saw some "animation" on the character. Audio is also pretty neat.

@hobzone Thank you for your comment and your idea! Next time we will try to add more animation.

I love the sprite work, it has a nice cutesy-style! The gameplay is simple and intuitive which is nice, but the controls seemed a bit too touchy to me. It would be interesting if your movement started out slow and got faster as you went deeper. Overall nice little game!

Switched off the music after about the 3rd time I died. Catchy tune, but it gets repetitive. The hit boxes around the obstacles are too wide in my opinion. I feel the character should still be able to dodge them just by scraping past. Also perhaps don't let the character die when it gets too close to the walls/sides. Rather create an animation of him getting scratched or damaged. Then he can maybe also die once he has sustained too many injuries as well apart form just dying when he gets too close to the rocks.

Death animation may also be a cool idea. Perhaps also think about some tools he can employ, e.g. an umbrella or parachute to slow down or maneuver more.

Overall an enjoyable game.
