Nice game the idea is very nice,  i also rated your game. Also if you could try it out and rate my game that would mean a lot :)

I like the reversal on the usual "avoid obstacles" concept, and the art style is very cute! It also took me a few tries to understand that you were supposed to hit the obstacles, not avoid them.

Thanks! We did have trouble figuring out how to convey that you are meant to run into objects, since it is the opposite of what is standard.

Did not realize I was supposed to hit the debris… WIsh that was clearer, the concept is fun tho ! Maybe the speed is a bit too much to handle ?

Played it for a few minutes, didn't feel like I was making any progress and was feeling frustrated. Maybe something indicating speed so it feels like something is actually happening

Thanks for the feedback! Properly displaying feedback is a challenge, but you are totally right. Perhaps the faster you are moving, the more obvious the decrease in speed on impact?
