Good art and music. The atmosphere was really good. Kudos!!

Sweet game. cute music, art and interesting way to fit the theme. Great work

Submitted

loved the cute chrome style game

Submitted

The style and the atmosphere are really nice! The difficulty feels a little bit random though. I had some passages with no ostacles at all at my lane and other where it was nearly impossible to get through. But overall a very nice and adictive game :)

Submitted

The art is super charming! The music and sounds are good, too. The game is unreasonably hard though, could use a bit more leeway when trying to dodge objects. I liked how I was able to jump and switch lanes while in the air, this helped a little bit with the difficulty.

This was pretty addicting for such a simple game! felt very nice to control

Submitted

very cool

Submitted

Nice simple game, very calming and addicted to get a new high-score.

I liked the simple look of it, with more polish the game would be a nice endless runner game.

Well done!

728 is my highscore! Nice take on the theme, it feels quite polished. Good job!

The audio really added to the calmness of the theme!

Rated! 

Cute art and sounds. Will the storm eventually hit?
Would appreciate you rating my game!

Nice pixel art!

I loved the design of the game, reminded me of club penguin sled-race. Very nice pixel art and soothing sounds that fit the game perfectly. My only criticism is maybe making the game  a bit more forgiving (making obstacle hitboxes smaller), so you will die less often when switching lanes. My HighScore was 250! How high did you get to?

Developer

The hit boxes are actually pretty small. You have leeway for all obstacles on both ends, so you could jump late, or land early and still be fine

Hee-ho. Nice art. Hardcore gameplay (I always beat about stones). Good game

Submitted

simple but fun gameplay, pixel art captures the vibe really well, i think a score display in the gameplay would be beneficial to the player to see if they are beating their high score or not. nice music choice too

Love the art and music <3. The gameplay is kinda hard for me.

Developer

Thank you for the kind words, we really appreciate the feedback. Re the gameplay: you can swap lanes mid action, and we tuned the difficult accordingly. I find on my longest runs, I’m jumping or sliding and swapping lanes before the jump/slide finishes quite often, especially during the storm. I’m excited to try your submission!
