However it's getting pretty drab pretty fast. There seems to be no variation of the basic jump or duck at all.

Nice bit of setting building with the intro, though it's still only tenuously linked to the theme. And yes, it has good music.\r<br\/>\r<br\/>For a bit of study on how technically incorrect hitboxes can be a good choice, check out http:\/\/blog.semisecretsoftware.com\/tuning-canabalt - a pleasant read for anyone making games about platforming precision, actually."},{"author_name":"Cosine","author_uid":"724","time":"Dec 21, 2010 @ 9:23pm","epoch":1292966280,"text":"I was a little careful about the hitbox, because it could also make the difference between making a jump or not. I mostly just tuned the numbers until it felt 'right.'
