Well done!!! Great graphics and audio. The game remindes me of a mobile game a quiet enjoyed. What do you think about my game???

An nice game! Felt a little too fast-paced for me, but that’s ok. Simple & nice graphics & concept, cool job!

This game is really fun! I  really enjoyed playing it. The visuals, sounds, and controls are all great.  The gameplay is addictive and the sense of speed feels really good. The powerups are well spaced and the obstacles don't seem unfair.

Some issues though: 

  • I didn't really see a way to get the groups of apes that were right behind obstacles. It seemed like every time I got them I couldn't avoid hitting the obstacle in front of them and therefore lost them all. 
  • The game also get's really easy once you get a big enough lead that you can take a few hits and keep going.  I made it to about 3000m before I got bored. One suggestion I have is having the tsunami speed up the further you get into the game, making it more dangerous to mess up. 

Other than those two this a great game! Great use of the theme.

Nice one, the controls felt good, and the spacing between the obstacles increased well with the speed. I like how it was not too punishing as you had a fair chance to recover after colliding and the tsunami got closer. A bit tricky moving sideways because of the camera angle and there not being distinctive lanes. Good job!

I had fun struggling my way up to 636. Pretty cool graphics and I liked how you could save yourself at the last second even after seeing the water get close. Hit boxes on some items could made it a little tricky, but these types of games are not meant to calm you down haha. Nicely done.

My record is 524. Tried it many times, but couldn't beat it :D Very cool game, the only thing i didn't like is that eating sound, it's kinda weird but funny i guess.

I love the 3D models they look soo good and the game its self is pretty fun. Idk if I am just bad at it but just after playing it a few times I think got the hang it. The apes together strong is a fun quote pulled from the themes I hadn't even thought of the connection when I played it.

Anyways we have the same taste of font so kudos to you :D!

Immediately started bobbing my head to the music. I LOVE IT. Kinda a throwback mix of crash bandicoot and Super Mario brothers. As for the game I really like it! Honestly for what it is, I only have one thing I would change. The tsunami should get faster or some other challenge increase, otherwise if you get in the zone you could play forever. I didn't realized right away that my poor ape babies died when I ran into things! It really makes the decision for what to attempt really hard. APE TOGETHER STRONG!

This is really good! I bet it good be a very nice mobile game as well

Developer

Thanks! Yeah, we were partly inspired by some mobile games so that's probably why it feels that way. Maybe if we work on it some more, we could adapt it into a mobile game but we'll see.

My score: 881M! That was fun, felt really good chaining the bananas and going fast.

Not a bad score, think you can do better?
