Jumped over the car expecting that was the idea xD.  You can be a bit more pro player, I jumped between two cars and lost even though I didn't touch it :P. The game font looks a bit strange, like the resolution picked in the browser wasn't the proper one? I was expecting cars from different direction, or cars with different speed. Also, I don't have a visual highscore while playing nor my best previous highscore, something I would always want in a game like this.

Hey,

Thanks for your nice comment <3.

I know that the hitboxes are strange but this is fixed in the new version of the game (which I can't upload because of the jam) (btw, the Highscore Ingame is also in the new version).  I also know that the font is kinda strange, I think I can't really do anything because I thing gamemaker made the font strange xd. Now the thing with the different car speeds etc: The  cars get faster every 15-30 seconds, but I already planned to add different speed on every car when I add planes and more to the game. And the last thing: I don't know really what you mean with "the resolution picked in the browser wasn't the proper one?" but what I can say is that the viewport is scaled up a bit so you can see the screen better.

Hi! I meant I was expecting a 160x144 resolution window (or bigger but with that aspect ratio) since that was the gb resolution but your game window doesn't look like that in the game page.

I did a couple of tries and my high score was 40!
It felt like the kind of mobile game you play while waiting for the bus to keep your thumb busy!

I wish I could control the height of my jump depending on how long I hold the button. Plus, maybe if you do another version in the future, it would be great to alternate the cars from left to right. Eventually maybe have planes and helicopters spawn at the top of the screen so you have to dodge stuff on the ground and in the air! Just a few extra ideas :)

Good job on your submission for GBJAM

Hey,

Thank you for your really nice feedback. I'm currently working on an update to make the game playable on mobile. And I'm also thinking about adding your idea to add planes to the game but that will take some time.
