Lovely little game, the combination of the music and the colours is great, has a nice relaxing quality especially on easy. Full marks for mood!

Fun little game. I would recommend making the colliders on the obstacles a bit smaller.

Works fine on my Mac, I've got the Oracle Java 8 JRE/JDK installed, could be that others have the (long deprecated) Java 6 runtime or possible the Oracle v7 JRE.

If the collision detection was a bit less severe it would have felt more fair. Always indent your bounding boxes by a few pixels to allow for perceived near-misses. Funky colour scheme and shapes and a UI to boot. Nicely done.

Interesting music and fun graphics. In-game instructions could have helped and it would have been nice if it didn't eat my mouse so I could reposition the window, but otherwise good work.

Cool objects but is confusing that all the obstacles do the same.

Nice happy mood to the game, especially with the music. Simple mechanics, but they work fine. Nice use of both themes.

Nice game, like the music and overall upbeat mood. Couldn't quite hit the 950+ mark...

Nice simple executed game. Would be nice if there was some coin variety though with different values so you would have to make a choice of which one to get.

I accidentally opened up 3 copies of the game at because it took about a minute to load and I thought it just wasn't starting. When I closed them all, the audio was still playing, and I had to go find the process in ProcExp and kill it before the audio would stop. Not a fun time.

@Stuntddude Im sorry to hear. I personally havent experienced this but I can understand what you mean. But I hope You understand that coding a loading screen isnt really worth it on a 48 hour game jam. Hope you liked the game nevertheless. Have a "guten Rutsch" :)

Fun little game, the randomness of it made some situations impossible to survive but overall pretty cool.
