Hi Joa!

The controls is the challenge of it, because your own movement is used against you 2 seconds later. I'm glad you enjoyed it and got the hang of it! I will add a tutorial once the jam is over, and add more feedback on death screens and win screens

That's the challenge of the game, wherever you go, the game itself fights back, hence the balance! It takes a while to get the grips of it, and that will (if given the chance) make some streamers rage live when the wind pushes them into the walls or blocks :D

I have many times regretted not adding any form of tutorial but I don't want to update after the deadline has passed, that would just be wrong. Once the jam is over, I will add a tutorial to make it easier for normal players.

Thank you! I intend to add a tutorial after the jam concludes, but just to clarify:

The wind actively pushes you in the opposite horizontal direction

At the end of each round, a green smiley or red frowny face will appear on screen to show if you won or lost

According to my server logs, either you didn't win or were offline

I wish I could have put the same level of polish that I did on the first scenes on the actual game. That is my single biggest regret. Just one more day would have made the difference, I imagine.

This is my biggest regret. Here's a breakdown of the physics:

1. WASD alters velocity, not position

2. There is wind that pushes you back,  which makes it hard to move in the right direction (this is the balance part, from a mathematical standpoint this means taking your velocity from 2 seconds ago and subtracting your current velocity by it)

3. For every frame that you are in contact with a block, your velocity increases by 10%. (This is a 60fps game, so that is dv^1.1^1.1^1.1... etc)

The next thing on my post its was to add automatic tutorial UI if you kept failing or running into walls or not moving it would show you how, but I ran out of time before the game was due.

After I sleep, I'll try to add it though.

I can confirm that the 2 seconds was not legit because I have the current scoreboard right here (taken april 7 at 0:10am PT):

[{"user":"joko","score":2.02},{"user":"joko","score":7.38},{"user":"Its a plane","score":11.02},{"user":"Its a plane","score":11.32},{"user":"Its a plane","score":14.13},{"user":"Its a plane","score":15.75},{"user":"Its a plane","score":20.8},{"user":"Its a plane","score":22.43},{"user":"grify","score":25.98},{"user":"Its a plane","score":39.8},{"user":"grify","score":18000.65},{"user":"grify","score":180000.65},{"user":"grify","score":1800000.65},{"user":"grify","score":18000000.65}]

11 seconds is a really good score! Better than mine!

Thanks for playing my game :)
