Perhaps it needs some more purpose. And also maybe some way to stop the constant jumping, because then you can be out of danger all the time.
A few glitches though, the distance text goes under the obstacles and there is occasionally a white bar where the background loops also enemies disappear before they are completely off screen.
The hitboxes seemed a bit unforgiving, there were times where I died when I was certain I didn't hit anything.
Great start though, hope you continue developing this game.
Do you ever get to the final evolution?
It was a bit frustrating to get killed from colliding with things that looked like I shouldn't have collided with.
Like many have said before, I was missing some more indication as to what I can eat and what not.
I didn't have problems with the hitboxes. And the jump was not a balance changer for me, since it makes me avoid food and slowing me down. So I suppose it's abusable by people who have hours on their hands.
