Good idea for where to go, although the shooting mechanic was a bit of an odd fit.
Something about the actual movement though made things really difficult. Also, vast majority of the distance for my scores was falling.
Anyway, I feel the idea and basic execution pretty nice. But it is also very hard, I usually just drop through the cracks almost immediately.
a lot of the issues could be dealt with if the first chunk of blocks didn't start falling until after a player has gotten past them, at least then you know the player has a grasp of the controls before punishing them.
I think with some tweaks it could totally be something I'd love, but that start was so unpleasant it's turned me off it for the time being...
Like the sound and graphics, but the actual game seems ..difficult. I keep automatically falling through the floor and dying.
Still, nice concept.
Overall, a good game. :D
