[raw]
made by L0gicaL1nsanity for LD27 (COMPO)
Mission Improbable! Run away from the baddies after stealing the most important data ever...or something. Watch out for those lasers!

Controls: Space to Jump
Game speeds up every 10 seconds
------------------------------------------------------------
This is my first ever game jam. Was quite fun to put together, although I only really worked on it casually throughout the weekend. If I had more time I would work on collision detection a little more, I know its a little off, but ah well!

Built using XNA/Monogame

NOTE: Linux Install does not appear to have music working. If you want the full effect, youtube "Mission Impossible Theme" and play it along with the game :P

I scored 90,000 exactly. Nice game! With more features and things it could be really interesting, I expect.

It's just pure fun, If there were powerups or something it would be doubly fun, but considering the timeframe, good job!

Lol i dont know if you meant it to be like this, but due to your collision detection once you reach a certain speed you can literally hold space and never lose. I just tested it out >.> fun little game though!

@BubbleTea, yeah I wanted to implement less velocity as time got longer and the game got faster, but I never got around to it. >.<

Couldn't get it to run the Linux version, let's see the Windows version o Wine :(.

Nice game/graphics! I love the windows in the background. Adds a lot of character.

The game starts a bit slow for my tastes, and then becomes pretty repetitive, but it was still a good job.

The chalkboard-like drawings on the background was a nice touch :]

375 388! Nice little runner, although as it gets faster it becomes more luck than skill because you can't see where you're going to land when you jump.

Really love the little jumpy guy, great graphic and nice used of the theme! Great entry. I featured it in a compilation video on Ludum Dare 27 games, if you want to check it out, http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=y3_qdYR_Vsw

Not the most complex of game ideas, but well presented - nice graphics, good atmosphere. Just one thing, though - the score gets carried over across multiple playthroughs. Is this intended?

Fun, though collision detection gets weird after a while

Hahah, really good game. Nice and simple, both fun and hard.

Simple and fun to play. But if you touch a laser while holding down space, it seems you won't lose.

I could really see this get a pretty strong audience as a mobile game. Really simple gameplay, but perfect for adding a few distance objectives or whatnot and getting people addicted to playing it for hours.

Quite a nice little game apart from the collision detection ;). Gave it one start for the audio though, it says explicitly in the compo rules that you have to make your music within the 48 hours.

Nice endless runner. The graphics felt a bit clashy, but the core mechanic to the game was simple and innovative. Nice!

Nice game! We also learned the hard way that increasing the speed of everything doesn't play nice with collision detection :) Good work

Classic idea quite well executed, great for a 1st Jam. I'd like more variety or some control on the jump, as the challenge here is to guess if you have to jump 1 or 2 lasers, which isn't enough for a runner IMO :) Also, I like the graphic style.

Good one, the implementation of the theme was original, but I didn't like it very much. But I liekd this, especially the graphics :D

Do I really have to install the game? Or does that installer just extract the files to a specific location?
