Very simple idea but executed well enough to be fun. 

That said, I played for a lot longer than is interesting cos I wasn't sure if there was an ending, I think it would benefit from one.

Incredible game, the creativity's through the roof! :D

This was really cool, but I wish the hitboxes were more conservative, because it often would appear like I cleared a spike jump but it registers as a hit.

The idea is great! Amazing game :)

When you have too much jump boost. He just disappears instantly for like 10 seconds XD


Also the music loop was awesome! Adventurous but also got a sweet lil melody underneath

This game is absolutely amazing! By far the most fun game that I've played so far in the jam. I really really hope you'd be interested in expanding this idea into a full game with a steam release because I would definitely buy it. I could play this for hours!

Awesome game! It took me a bit to realize me taking damage in the running game was why my towers were dying, but probably my fault for not reading the help text to start :/. The way you can switch between both modes and see what's going on in the other one is really well done, and I really like the music slow while you're in the tower defense mode. And it's cool to have something to do while the waves are coming rather than just watching your towers fight. Some extra variety in the enemies/towers and platforming and maybe levels would be cool if you guys decide to work more on it :)

I really enjoyed this! It took me a while to get used to, but once I did I found a good rhythm. It was a stressful trying to upgrade my towers while I slowly ran towards death.

I wish there was more info about the different types of towers. Maybe a list of their symbols and what they are in the tutorial would be great. I was very confused when I first started buying towers (and had very little time to do so before my runner died) because I didn't know what anything was.

Very neat game! Also very unforgiving haha.

Congrats on making a cool and clean game! Love the minimalism

Would love a bit more info on the towers you can build and what their upgrades are!

Cool game! Interesting concept wich was well executed. The time-slow when you switch to tower defence is a very useful addition. The difficulty was pretty hard at the start of the game. Keep up the good work!
