I think this game would be a lot more fun without the mouse controls being inverted, it makes the gameplay feel very uncanny which is not the greatest feeling for an endless runner. 

If nothing else you can maybe have an option in the options menu for whether the player wants the mouse controls to be inverted or not. I don't think it would be a particularly difficult menu option to add and would do the game so many favours

The controls are pretty hard and the mouse is inverted. Feels weird to play TBH.

Good concept, I liked the music and sounds of it. With some tweaks on the camera and the character movement it can become a great game! But overall, good job!

Nice job!

Neat arcade game. I can't for the life of me play well with inverted camera controls though haha.

I didn't notice any bugs though, so great job on making a solid game!

Cool game, I scored 162 but I think I could scored more

Nice!

The camera / movement seems a bit tricky, took me a while to get the hang of it but still very nice, enjoyed it!

thanks! (btw, you change the camera sensitivity in the pause menu if you like (esc button))

Yep!  found it already, it helped :)

Neat submission! If I were to suggest one thing, it would be to give some settings for how sensitive the camera is as it made it a bit difficult to control the character. 

Developer

thank you! there is actually camera sensitivity setting in the pause menu (press esc while playing to find it)

Oh! Thats great to know, I'll give it another try with a slower camera.

Cool idea! I think it would probably have a better feel if the character followed the player's POV a bit more closely, it was very difficult to aim. I liked the general look and drama of it though!
