Give a quick overview of your game
An endless runner where you are a surfing monkey.

Avoid obstacles, collect bananas, crash through windows and billboards using your watermelon powered dash, and pay off the monkey police while chasing a new highscore!

Featuring a colorful, cartoony 3D visual style, an original surf-rock soundtrack and sound effects, and a procedural sequence of obstacles, every run is a little different.

A never-ending summer classic, where you can hop between island beach houses, boatwrecks, palm trees and more.

Cool game! I liked the chill atmosphere and the procedurally generated obstacles work very well in this game. The game art is also very good. I appreciated the surf board looking like a banana :D

Thanks, I was hoping people would catch onto that detail :D in the concept and on the game over screen the monkey's Hawaiian shirt also has bananas instead of the usual palm trees/flower patterns, but in-game it was easier to implement a simple red shirt for now and texturing wasn't a top priority.

Pretty cool game! I agree with some comments about the things you can dash through, they could have beeen indicated better but overall pretty enjoyable!

fun game, a little hard to control (were the jumps working?) and not sure how to get past some obstacles. But good overall themes!

Thank you! Jumping works fine for me, though we are aware that the collision with some of the ramps can be iffy. If the game is laggy or if input is delayed try it in windowed mode, it usually runs smoother that way.

Thank you for your review!

this was cute. I liked the 3D Art and it felt like a really nice mobile game. I also liked the Overall feeling of the Game. Nice work!

This is cool! The controls feel pretty good, and I like the banana toll idea. I'm not sure if this was intentional but the jump doesn't seem to work on the boat ramps.
