The concept of "Built to Scale" was used very well in the game idea. I don’t know why, but I was really curious to reach the top and see what was up there xD—I couldn’t manage to do it U_u! Greetings!

Very nice! It's simple but it does its job well, as janky as it is.

Cool game! 

Clever idea well executed. Movement might slightly be adjusted as people have said, but it's no biggie. Well done :)

Loved the level design! Had some issues due to collider issues but overall game was incredible!

Interesting game. I like the concept. Sometimes it seems as though I land on or hit invisible platforms, is this intentional? All in all, nicely done! :)

Neat game! My main critique is that it's a bit random, I had a situation where a platform spawned directly above me and made it so I couldn't jump anywhere so I died. But it's a neat idea and the art effect with the shadows both looks good and compliments the gameplay well. Nice work.

I like the sound design and awarding the player bonuses for hitting platforms. I wish the platform spawning was a bit more structured. I also think that the shader effects are super cool like seriously it's awesome overall great submission. :D

Cool Concept, had fun !

Pretty fun for how simple the concept is-- my only suggestion would be that there should be no ceiling because once I get up there I feel like there is no more progress I can make and I'm actually at a disadvantage now for doing well.

Nice job though!

very simple style, but effective ! I had a lot of fun. I felt tricked when a platform just popped above my head, without any warning, and convicts me to a deadly meeting with spikes..

Simple yet unique idea! Awesome visuals and really addictive gameplay! Nice job!

The platforms can sometimes squish you when they spawn and the movement is a little to fast in my opinion. I struggled to make it very far up at all. Nonetheless, good job!

the idea and the art is quite good.
need little work on the spawning of platforms (like avoid spawning directly above and in a certain small radius)
and it will me more enjoyable.

The idea was great, but I think there is room for a little work on the movements, they are a bit sharp and difficult to control. But overall great job.

Really fun game! It's great in its simplicity and it was a good challenge. It does have some problems with platforms spawning in some annoying places tho.

nice idea. Sometimes felt like I had no options tho

A great tiny experience. My favorite gameplay twist was that smaller platforms give more points, that was such a great idea.

Very polished look and smooth gameplay. I really like what you did with the dynamic lighting and player trail. Good job!
