I like the simple controls. However, the visuals could have been improved by a lot.
The few games I played was enjoyable.

High score: 13.

That was fun, nice concept. I do think there needs to be more punishment for missing because you can pretty much spam space if you want.

The combo feature really improves this a lot, I went from kinda bored to really engaged once I noticed it. Graphics are simple but the changing backgrounds get the job done

Really nice game, my best score was level 13.

Maybe it would be great if the main menu was a bit faster.

Nice game! Original mechanics, I like it. Highest floor was 10. I noticed you can abuse a short burst of spacebar spam when near the green, it improved my score a lot. Not sure if intended or not. Anyway, nice work!

For 24 hours it was the right choice to make something simple. Btw I got to floor 15.

I don't know if it's just me, but I felt like I had to press space quite a bit earlier than what the graphics suggested. I got used to it eventually, but with the speed increasing it tripped me up every now and then.

Nice little game, maybe it would have been great to put some combos when you do a lot of good clicks in a row to move faster. I only got to level 7 !

Nice minimalist idea! One small detail that I think @mike-inprinciple noticed as well - the game responds to the space key being released instead of it being pressed, which can trip people up.

Not so fun imo. You can spam spacebar to progress.

Nice game, Love how everything is balanced!
Good luck, Don't forget to take a look at ours if you don't mind and see what it's like when we just focused on graphics in this game jam!
