This game works surprisingly well + I will take any game where I can run over minions with a train.

You put in a lot of juice and the graphics are minimal, which works for this style. I also like that the frog gave me a jump boost. 

Great job!

I had fun playing this. The sound effects were nice. I couldn't figure out what the frog did. The intensity of the explosion effect is always the same and so when I died because I barely and slowly hit something, seeing a big explosion felt enraging.

very clean graphics, polished in general, cute switch on subway surfer. as others have said i could easily see this on the app store.

Amazing game! It made me play multiple runs of it, which says something!

Love this! Really nicely executed endless runner. The little touches make it: like the shake animation when you hit something. Might steal that idea for mine!

Agree with my friend Elidef! You need to upload this game to the appstore and playmerket and add donate!

Release this on an appstore and become a millionaire. Wtf are you still doing here, you genius.

Everything is perfect. Only thing I can say is the magnet upgrade felt a bit too powerful and invalited a bit too much of the challenge of the game. It's because it lasts a bit too long I think. 

Edit : editing to emphasize the incredible animation work

Very fun idea, tight controls, and full of laughs when you are against the Subway Surfers. Can definitely see the GMTK inspiration here too. You should also be commended that with the bright colours, simple idea and execution, this is a very appealing game to play!

All around great work!

My team and I just learned about this year’s GMTK after reading this comment… feeling a missed opportunity :’) but thank you for the feedback!

It's a fun concept, maybe it was a little bit odd, it seems like it fits another theme, like "role reversed", also the idea of the consumable is "you shouldn't" but here you 100% consume the bottle.
I like that you can kills minions.

really nice, colorful visuals and fun music! my only complaint is that the player feels a too big and chunky so its easy to run into stuff without really knowing what I hit

Solid, concise entry. Love the style and especially the music

Great job. Good use of the theme and I like the frog consumable! Very cute art style and I enjoyed the minions. I didn't realize I at first you could jump onto the trains on the track. It was very difficult until I realized that
