This was a really interesting concept! I think some more movement playtesting could really help a lot, the slide didn't feel great because I always got stuck under platforms (but maybe I'm just bad). The jump was also really hard to control, decreasing the fall time would help a lot. Other then that, I really like the idea. This could totally be made into a super good game with some minor tweaks!

I think it'd be neat if you added an extra mode, like endless or multiplayer?

Really fun to move around though, was really satisfying!

Cool idea. What if you made it endless, thus you need to keep getting better and better?

I'm a big fan of speedruns and know well what it's like to chase your ghost, you combined them well in one game! Good idea, it was fun!

I like the concept of competing against yourself because you want to run fast at the first lap but you also have to make sure you're faster on the second. The jump feels a bit too heavy though so it was hard for me to get into the flow. Otherwise, good game!

I lost ... But I won !

The controls were definitely took some getting used to but once you get the hang of it it's a fun experience! Also the visuals and music were really good!

Loved the visuals and the twist! Weirdly enough I actually didn't mind the tougher controls, I really enjoyed this game, definitely one of my favorites in this jam!

As others have said, the controls don't feel very intuitive, and it would certainly play a lot better if they did. But you can get the hang of it somewhat. I would like to complain about the music volume though, its maximum is a good chunk too loud for my tastes. I usually stand alone with that take, but I shall complain anyway :P

The visuals were great! The controls were wacky, making it flow better would provide a better gameplay experience. Would love to play it once fixes are implemented!

The visuals for this game were epic. I loved the theme, though I wish the platforming controls/physics were polished out a bit more. 

The music and visuals were amazing! Thanks for such an experience!

This is a great example of the play as player, and then play as the enemy style game.

Really liked the reveal and the music!  I'm not sure what the intended method for getting through long slides is however.  I went really slow through them and then got back up to full speed after!

This is super clever! The twist was fun and made for an interesting challenge. The controls feel like they need a little more tuning, as the player is a little "heavy" and doesn't jump very far relative to their speed. But once I got the hang of it, I was able to control just fine! Nicely done!

I can see a lot of potential in this one. The art looks really stylish and the idea is original. Loved the twist! Once you get the momentum going, it's a ton of fun. I came up with a few ideas that could help with maintaining that momentum through the whole experience. You could try how the game works without the ability to go backwards, since that's something you rarely want to do anyways. You could just constantly accelerate forwards. Would also make the game more mobile friendly. Second thing I thought about is a small "recovery dash" (with a cooldown) that you could use after you lose your momentum to get back into the groove faster. I enjoyed this a lot and I hope you actually continue working on this!

Really nice game, well done :D
Maybe you could add coyote time on jump to improve it...

Wow, this game has biggest twist in any game jam game I've played. Maybe the colliders could be more round to not slow you too much, but still the feel of running as fast as posible there is. Also when playing the second part, you are more used to the controls. So even when you start little bit behind you can still win.

I really like those speedrunning games and you did really well with the movement. The implomentation of the theme was really good as well.

Good job!

Nice art!
