The game looks really good,
The pixel art is really well done.
On another hand, the game mechanics can be abused pretty easily, I just ended up pressing space every time the bar was too much to the left or too much to the right. It would of been nice to force the player a little more to switch between mammoth and foot. Maybe also put boulders you can't run into or something to force the player to move left and right.
Otherwise the game is really good looking and feels pretty nice to play even if it can be abused pretty easily :)
Very fun. I do feel like the biggest thing that needs thought is the carrots - because they push the bar in a direction dependent on which mode you're in, the whole game can just be played with the spacebar. One possibility would be if instead they always pushed the bar in one direction (ie, always to the right), that might make the dynamic would be a little more complex.
All in all though, nice work! Would love to see this taken further.
1318m!
That mammoth really hates veggies.
Awesome art and really nice feel to the gameplay - love how the music gels with the caveman sound effect too. I had a lot of fun, I did manage to cheese the mechanic in the end however by staying in a lane and pressing space as soon as it reached either end of the bar - so it would be ace to see some difficulty improvements. That said I think this is a top game - well done!
PS. I really hope Man Moth is a Karl Pilkington reference :)
Man this game sure needs some recognitions!! Those animations are way too good! and I am pretty impressed with the UI alignment too much perfect for an endless running gam! If possible try adding some more mechanics and I am sure it will be a complete success hehe!
The concept is really nice and the presentation is stellar (always will love controls on the side of the screen). However I found it way too easy, and I managed to get some challenge out of it by never changing the lane and just playing with timing changes from/to on-mammuth depending on how I wanted the next carrot to influence the bar.
Overall, this could be a really nice game with extra mechanics or just an extra difficulty setting!
I like the thought of charging down the path on a mammoth smashing through everything in the way. Takes a couple of goes to get used to balancing the bar, good fun!
I like the pixel art style but it is probably a bit chunky
