it really matches the theme good, Also it has some good idea on it.

I'd love to play your game if it has more features and skills, well done.

Cool concept!.... i think game can be a bit fast and rhythmic ... 
Amazing implementation in 2 days... art style suits the game..

plz expand this game further... you can add feature of destroying blocks and spawning them ... 

rated... all the best for the rest of the jam...

Developer(+1)

Thank you very much!

Yes, I thought about destroying blocks as one of options for beating traps.

Simple and fun, well executed overall.

Some small issues with the box generation i had a few times where i had either boxes a bit close which trapped me or a few seconds of boxes spawning above me along the same line, but it's not much just a bit of tweaking i guess. 

I liked the minimalist aestetic the fact you made it with thin lines on a black background kinda made me think of Vectrex games :) 

Developer

Thank you for your kind words!

Box generation problems have been pointed out already ; would like to try it again with the algo fixed (I saw you were planning to).

By the way, trying to stay above the highest crates is an interesting way to play!!

Developer

Thank you for your attention!

Yes, I plan to make some changes, but I don't think I have  a right to do it before the jam ends.

Simple, but surprisingly addictive!

Nice little runner/jumper! Technically it's two colors though, or none at all, or all of them, depending on how you want to see it.

The base design in just ok, but many, MANY thanks for letting the player wall-jump, even if you have to find out for yourself. The adherence could have been more subversive tho

Developer

Thank you!

There is no adherence, but you can jump from walls while you are touching it's side by the character bottom part (wher legs maght be).

Developer

Do you have a GMTK Game Jam 2019 submission? I couldn't find one  in your profile.

I tried to participate, but personal business got in the way. The build I had made was functional but ugly and only 4 levels long, so I didn't submit it

Submitted(+1)

It's very addictive even though it is so siplistic. I like the graphical design of the game! Nice job!

Developer

Thank you for playing and kind words!

Puts an interesting twist on endless runner genre by having you decide whether to risk squeezing under the blocks, which is not always possible, or to try jumping on top of it. Also, I like that the guillotine gives you just enough time for one attempt to recover from a bad jump.

Developer

Thank you very much!

Cool game. The theme fits very well! Sometimes it was hard to judge if my block could fit through certain spaces. Well done!

Developer

Thank you very much for playing and feedback!

Tiny but cute mini-game.
I ran for 351 meters.
Maybe it needs a more thoughtful algorithm to generate blocks, it has much trap that makes it a dead end. I feel unfair about this.
And chip-tuned music and SE should make the game more attractive!
Overall, nice work!

Developer

Thank you!

Planning to solve generator problem after the jam.

Submitted(+1)

Pretty good small game! Only thing to fix is those moments where you are trapped under a box and another one is directly in front of you. I think some good soundtrack will also add a lot to the experience.

Developer

Thank you!

Can you advice me some websites with free music for a game background?

Submitted

I would advise you to take a look at a program called Bosca Ceoil. It's pretty simple to use to create some nice music. It's much better when you can do your own music than searching for something that matches your game (that can be really hard sometimes).

Developer

Thank you.

I have some experience with musical instruments but not with music creation programs.

Cool little game, the theme may be kind of a stretch. Just work to remove the impossible states and you got a great mobile time sinker (in a positive way ;D).

Developer

Thank you!

I'll try to fix the problem after the jam is ended (I think I can't edit the project before).

Simple & fun!

Cool idea! Got to 431 meters after several tries. I like the idea that the level is moving towards you, but getting trapped into the boxes with no way out feels a bit cheap.  

Developer(+1)

Thank you for playing my game! And thank you for your feedback!

I'd like to extend player movement abilities  and update obstacles generator later.

Submitted(+1)

Nice game! My high score was 234 after one run with several lucky box placements.

Developer

Thank you!
