Well, that was fun! It was great trying to beat my highscore and trying again and again ^^
I made it to 2215m, I feel like I could go for way longer, but I am still proud :D
The art style works perfectly and you got the feeling of a good ol' Canabalt really well!

Good job !

Fun runner. Good work!

A fun simple game. Juicy running animation and cool chiptune. However, there were places that I swear it was impossible to jump over. Maybe I was just unlucky, but overall a very good job! Well done!

Really fun platforming runner, I don't think I got very far but I kept replaying it over and over because it was fun and juicy! Music is a great addition and suits the overall tone.

small nit-pick, I think a dash move or some slow-motion, would be cool and add a little extra variety to player movement.

Otherwise great game.

I had a lot of fun trying to get new high scores. It's a fun game loop. 

Only suggestion would be to have it so holding jump makes you stay in air longer and you fall fast when letting go. This would give the player more control :)

Good work!

I don't know what it is with unity games launching on my second monitor by default but the game starting in fullscreen with no options menu made this really awkward to play for me because of this lmao

Anyways, this was pretty cool! Gamejams always bring forth so many different genres, but I still didn't expect an endless runner like they were popular 8 years ago on mobile phones

It was a good game. Your music choices slap super hard and I loved the visuals. My only complaint is the jump controls, I feel like making them more reactive so players could micro-hop by quickly pressing space would've been a cool addition (to more effectively dodge the papers). (plus, coyote time)

But overall, speeding at mach 12 through hell will never not be fun!

Nice game! Consistent experience from menu to gameplay.

There are a good amount of cool tricks in there. You could add “coyote time” like suggested.

Here is a good one to make your chromatic aberration looks less “bandy”.

Keep up!

Nice little endless runner game.  I liked the aesthetic and the walk cycle animation.  The music was also enjoyable.  Good work!

Cool endless runner! I agree with maclo4 that it would be a fun game on mobile if you decided to work on it more outside of the jam!

Great entry!

What I liked:

  • The art style is good along with the music and general vibe
  • It has a lot of character
  • I feel like this would make a good mobile game considering it only requires one button

What I thought could be improved:

  • A lot of the slow down trap things were placed in spots that seemed kinda unavoidable
  • More control over the characters jump height would make it feel more satisfying

Cool game ! Simple but effcient.
Liked the art style a lot.
Tiny little feedback : Make it possible to interact with the menu with the keyboard so that the player don't have to grab his mouse everytime he want to retry.  (in unity you can do that with : "EventSystem.current.SetSelectedGameObject(GameobjectOfTheButton);")
Nice work :)

Ah, cool game! It's much juicier than the screenshots suggest!

Nice feeling in the menus, good sounds when the platforms of hell sink. Nice that there are different tunes to run to! I guess the levels are generated a bit randomly? Some starts were REALLY hard :D 

I sometimes felt like I fell a little too easy when trying to jump as late as possible. There's a thing called coyote time, which is a really good thing to keep in mind when working with platform games of any kind.

I think I got to around 2000m at best. 

Well done, hope you had fun and will participate in more jams!

Impressed you made what I believe to be random generation in the time, great animations on Dennis.

I liked the effect of the area wrapping around, but I feel as though some other effects might have been too high. nice game!
