Really fun, some jumps are a bit too tight for me but still awesome game!

So I was fascinated to play the game that had (almost) the same name was ours. I loved that it was a completely different idea, with some lovely colourful graphics and cute little sprites.

My main feedback would be about the difficulty. I just couldn't get my little poker chip to survive very long, but loved the style and the different challenges thrown at me. Good work!

Woah, This game’s art is super cool, great work on the gameplay too. Awesome entry! :D

I love the way things ramp up, it feels chaotic and I love it. Perhaps the chips in the background could become solid objects to jump on, it would add variety. Very fun game.

This is indeed a difficult challenge game!

It goes way too fast way too soon! Consider a tutorial where things ramp up slowly, with each type of "disaster" introduced to the player, as well as the means to avoid it.

Damn, this game is quite difficult.

My main piece of advice would be to maybe make chips on the table (in the background) darker so that you don't have any distractions on the actual playing field, unless that's the point of course.

The idea is simple, but there is excitement that makes you keep wanting to play for some time:)

Too hardcore, there are some obstacles that are almost impossible to pass.

Obstacles don't disappear after losing, so I even died once after appearing in an obstacle that didn't have time to disappear. 

+ the game does not open in full screen. Bug?
