Rated! Perhaps checkpoint system will work really well in this kind of game! Best luck!

Nice Game! The fast spikes and the intense music made it really suspenseful to me. I also like the simplistic art style and the feeling that comes off from the game. Overall really nice job! I would do 6 stars on fun if I could.

This game had very unique game feel. It was a bit unforgiving and a bit difficult for me, but it did make me want to keep trying to win.  Good job!  I hope you'll rate us as well if you haven't already:) https://itch.io/jam/cgj/rate/476728

The graphics... exist and the gameplay is actually fun. Once you pick up speed and the music picks up it's really enjoyable.

Rated! Love the music for this! Like a few others the third section with the crushers confused me at first but I eventually got it. I think being able to see the crushers at the top of the screen when they're lifted and giving them little spikes or something might help communicate what they are. Other than that, great job on this fast-paced game. It was fun to play! :)

Fun but simple game, a bit challenging too. I hate to tell you this but i don't think you followed the jam's theme closely like i did, but still, i liked the game nonetheless.

Also, i'd recommend you to update your game after the jam ends. (Update the graphics, add more levels, add items, checkpoints, etc.) 

Good luck on your game making journey. ;D

Good game. However, I'm confused as how is fits the "Game Is A Liar" theme. If the bit where you turn into a robber was supposed to make you think you found the end; I suggest adding a flag, coin or maybe a sign saying "Exit" to make it more obvious that that was the "end".

The idea for the final twist is nice. The game itself is a bit short to be entertaining. I died twice in the final section because I didn't understand that those were crushers. It is hard to tell because they have that red background both when they are open or closed.

The music is nice, the graphics are a bit basic.

Rated!

my review:

Im not sure if its the game or me, but i could get trough the third thing!?

ist very difficult.

so I tried it a few times and then quit, very sorry about that.

i dont know what the game is about the theme but I think I dont know it because i didnt came trough the third thing.

the graphics are.. ok. but maiby you could have done better :D

the music is good, but you need to let it play whatever you die or not. Its annoying when its restart everytime you die.

Dont feel bad about my review, just tried to improve your game.

keep up the work!

maiby you could give a review to my game too :D

Hi,

 nice little game.

Please feel free to try out my game and rate it here:  https://itch.io/jam/cgj/rate/474542

Many thanks,

Kris

Music was the best part for sure! Concept good, needs to be expanded and polished!

Really enjoyed the music, despite the short nature of it :) Some minor bugs, otherwise good :D

This was a really cool idea, but I think the theme/twist could certainly show a bit more if you added more story at the beginning. Aside from improving the graphics/audio a bit, this was a really nice game! Great job!

I liked the idea of it... you should release it for mobile devices I see a top grossing game right there.. the only things I would like to change is the character animation and maybe a little more description? I honestly couldn't understand how it related to the theme

Not bad. I can say it's an original concept. But other components are not good enough. I rated anyway!
Don't forget to rate my game as well! Thanks.

Hehe, this game was really exiting, it's gonna make you hyper! Well Done.

interesting game. The graphics aren't great but the concept is original. The start reminds of Minecraft dropper maps
