Artist's Statement
I had no idea this was such a thing. Audio based games. Here I'm thinking I had a cool idea for awhile. This is the first time I've created it. Theme is: Failure is progress

Interesting idea with the footstep sounds denoting gameplay, and I liked the ironic narration, although a bit more background and/or obstacle sounds might have been nice.
However, in game terms this defaults to boppit, indeed when I first played I assumed I'd have to tap the d key to run quickly, and then jump and slide in an arcade action way.
Btw, for more on audiogames, please visit www.audiogames.net.
This is solid, I like it! It's just too short.
What would be cool would be a mode where there is no end, the game just throws stuff at you randomly while the creatures increase in speed. And when you are overtaken, you'd be told your survival time. That would give it replay value.
But yeah, really great start into audio games. If you make any more games in the future, I'd definitely love to check them out!
I found the sounds for some of the actions where hard to tell apart. Especially the jump and slide sounds. I also didn't like how I had to repress the run button after any of the other actions. But otherwise it was a good game and i liked the voice overs.
One of the most original and enjoyable games I have played yet. 10/10 would download again
