Amazingly tuned and balance arcade game, one of my favourites so far.
Had a gorillas.exe DOS vibe that i loved, nailed the Nes Battle City main menu style, incredible experience.
Graphics are really good and music surprised me in a good way.
116.15 my score.
Thanks a lot.
Another game made in the game maker, I'm always happy when I see them!
I don't know why you composed this jazzy song, but it was amazing, I don't know because it reminded me so much of some sonic phases.
The game is fun, the controls are responsive and the art fits well with the proposal, congratulations!
The music is very good but I do not know if it fits the game too well. I would probably have gone some other route to create a piece that invokes the feeling of rush and hurry. But that is up to a debate and as I said, the song is good and catchy!
The game fits the theme very well, I like the fact where (Apparently) is impossible to survive forever, at some point your character will explode
really cool and addictive game
Enjoyed playing it on Stream!
Great little twist on classic arcade game style. I had a great time with this one.
Interesting take on the theme. I liked the effect that as your platform shrank things in some ways became easier, but you did also approach your inevitable end.
Thanks for coming to my stream! Here's a recording in case you'd like to refer to it https://youtu.be/aJkdjOKW03M
Couldn't beat that High Score sorry xD
Congratulations!
@very-bad-bunny-studio @tranzit Nice job on the record!
@nash Thanks for noticing all the little details!
@cruise-elroy @jesus-gonzalez I plan on adding more / making an android of the game since so many people asked.
@bluishgreenpro @jcmonkey The terrain was made hard to traverse so that it was not possible for you to grab all the bombs.
@nardandas @drentsoft @dannyk1994 @marcmagus @caudatecoder @alexthehuman2 @jitspoe @kaminos @wassim Thanks for playing it on stream!
@macabreartgames I updated the game to have volume control, you can use 1 and 2 to change the volume. Thanks for the feedback!
@euler-moises I hope your game group finds it useful!
I love the simplicity in art, music AND gameplay. It's highly addictive! Innovative concept with smooth and response controls. I'm not sure if the level was randomly generated? Let me know! I didn't quite pay attention to that part haha. I loved how the bomb actually blow up the stage rather than just themselves, great little touch!
Thanks for sharing this game!! <3

Maybe this could use more chaos, more explosions, more ways the arena changes.

Well done :bomb:
For such a simple concept it was fun to play, it became super challenging when the ground split into islands or particularly large pillars presented themselves.
It'd be cool to see you develop more, perhaps with more bonuses / moves , like some sort of sideways dash to jump across wide horizontal gaps, perhaps with a penalty of using up some fuse time or something?
I would have expected to die if I'm caught in a explosion though
Nice audio, nice graphics, juicy and responsive, very fun to play, congrats!
