This idea is really unique! I liked the game, but i have some critique points:

1. I would remove dieing when you run into yourself, or make it better / more obvious where you die.

2. The music was cool, but there was something off about. Can´t put my finger on it though.

3. Something that often happens when using pre- existing art, is that the UI looks much worse than the rest of the game. Also happened here. A tip to make it better: USE A DIFFERENT FONT THAN ARIAL! Please, if even would be fine with comic sans.

4. I like the name :D

Hope the feedback helped you, would be nice if you could check out my submission too. :)

Thanks for your feedback!

1. In the full game everything will be made in a grid system. Hazards (Including followers) will highlight the edges of the squares red (or something similar) This should help with a lot of confusion :)

2. I'm sorry you found the music off putting. Many others loved it. Maybe it was something with the fire sfx playing under the track.

3. I'm actually surprised this didn't come up sooner. During development we had to pick, and choose where to spend a lot of time, and where to cut corners to meet the deadline. The game over screen/pause menu only had time for 1 draft. With less time restraints the full version will be much more modern, and sleek.

4. Thanks we do too :)

I'll check yours out right away
