Really cute concept. Can really see it going somewhere if you continue it! I streamed my thoughts and playthrough here https://www.twitch.tv/videos/1113579105?t=02h27m06s

cool game! you know you have something good when the mechanic itself makes you laugh. It seems ridiculous at first but once you get it, it's pretty fun.

Thank you! ^-^

Good mechanic, and the music is great

Thank you!

Interesting mechanic, think the control scheme could definitely be worked on, but fun! Loved the music too :)

Really interesting concept, and an endless runner that still is interesting. And i don't know if you made the graphics and music yourself, but they are both amazing. 

This game unfortanetly didn't keep me playing for too long tho, and that's mainly because i think you need to press the buttons as fast as possible to fill up the health bar. 

I would have prefered if you could just keep holding the buttons, but maybe that's just a personal opinion.

Also, i don't know what font you used here, but less generic and more unique fonts help the look of every game. 

Other than that, pretty cool game. It would be really cool if you could check out my submission too. :)

Thanks! I made the graphics myself but used a free music since I don't know how to make one.

It might be a bit too tiring to press the buttons huh, I designed it with no stopping in mind, maybe I can adjust it to be easier.

I'm using default font, I'll try to find a good and fitting one.

I've played your game, it's a fun game ^-^

I agree that the rapid button press gets old after a while. It would be super cool if  in blink mode you had to press  the buttons to the beat of the music.

A complicated control scheme tied and presented quite nicely with the gameplay. Not many complaints here.

Thanks!
