I like the monochrome aesthetics.  The combination of the music and graphics reminds me of Game Boy games.

The horizontal movement was fairly snappy, as is the initial jump. The sudden drop after jumping caught me by surprise, but was manageable.

The high player speed and the timer does seem to encourage panicky decision making, so it would be interesting to have seen more levels that took advantage of this sense of panic.

Thanks for this feedback!

As others said, the game seems to be running too fast to be enjoyable. That said, I can appreciate the way it looks. Its a good looking game.

player movements are way too fast and therefore impossible to control the player.

Unfortunately, I can't play this game. The arrow keys didn't work, but AD moved the character. Too fast to control anything, though. I died quickly, then got an exception that crashed the application.

Hello, I am unable to play your game. I unzipped the file and rain main.exe and received an exception. Seems  like it can't find the font.

FileNotFoundError: [Errno 2] No such file or directory: 'C:/Users/Ryanr/PycharmProjects/Die_and_finish/fonts/upheavtt.ttf'

The font is in the fonts folder, but it seems to want to search your C: drive for it.
