i found the game extremely fun to play but a little hard, most of the time i just alternated between up and down hoping for the best because if i tried to wait to see what was coming and dodge it after 1000 points there wasn't enough time to react. great work!
Thanks, we appreciate it! yeah, we know the difficult goes up really hard, we tried our best to balance it but the deadline was already too close, sorry for that!
What a nice little game! I had fun fumbling with the keys, and I see myself challenging some friends in the future. One thing that annoyed me a little was how loud the music was at first (I was playing at night, it woke my wife up lol), but that's really minor. Well done!
thank you very much! We really appreciate it. Sorry for waking up her hahaha, we'll keep that in mind for future games.
Really neat idea!
Definitely feel like it meets the "out of control" theme. I was panicing a bit to find the right keys to press as I went down. It would have been nice to have an ease into the mechanic!
thanks pal! we added a little tutorial sign (The one with the "?" ) as a sort of introduction, but maybe it wasn't clear enough. Thank you for the feedback!
I think one of the problem with your game is that you have no real time to look on the track since you are completely focused on the letters to press. Somehow the game goes too fast to do both, check the track and check the letter to press. The idea is fun and the concept is clearly linked to the theme out of control :) I liked the idea to run on a downhill with a cart.
Thanks for your words! We appreciate it!, that issue you say is something we knew, but since time is a tough factor, balancing was kind of difficult to manage in the last hours, we tried slowing it down, but it lacked that "out of control feeling" we where searching for. Anyways, thanks for your feedback! <3
