I managed to get around -5000. It's pretty hard but fun!
The graphics are really nice too
still managed to complete it, so I don't think I was just lucky the first time. :D Level design is pretty good. Usually games like these like to surprise me with an unexpected combo of obstacles, as if to force me to memorise the entire track to complete it. Here everything felt just right, like it was flowing pretty smoothly. There's plenty obstacle types (I think I liked the beam spiral the most - so satisfying to get through it perfectly at high speeds!), so the track doesn't get boring. One thing I might like to see added is a max speed stat after a run - I think I've reached around 500kph before hitting a wall to avoid the solid circle in the centre and slowing down again. I've done a few runs to see how fast I can get, but tracking the speed yourself is difficult while trying to concentrate on not hitting anything. But I gotta say I did enjoy listening to that music each run. :D Overall, really nice jam entry, well done!

Also the player could have been a little more faster in terms of navigation.
Other than that, pretty slick
but thanks for the feedback, I'm really thankkfull for all the notes!
I would have maybe tweaked the controls to be ever so slightly tigther, but that's just my personal preference. Despite that I did enjoy the game :smile:
Good game
Is the congratulations screen the end?
Really good entry. very well done.
Great entry!
I encountered weird differences between web and windows version - in web I couldn't move on full screen and had no sound effect, on windows I had no music. I'm not sure, but the game also felt more difficult on windows
Very nice game

Pretty easy game, mostly on memorization rather than skill I'd say as controls are responsive and there aren't that many obstacles that can end the run, but plenty of those that slow you down (and I broke each one at first just for lulz)
Well done!
