Decent endless runner, like the music. Some items are spawn at positions where they're impossible to collect.

Pretty good! Reached a score of 195, simple but pretty addicting. Controls well, and there's a few pickups that keep the game interesting.

Pretty fun. Actually kind of addictive. Jumping is a little terrifying, but fun! gj

Nicely done. Game runs and plays really well. Fits the theme perfectly and oh I loved the credits music and ability to speed up too.

Nice endless runner. I like that you added some power, it makes the gameplay more interesting. Good job ;)

I agree with JohnWatmuff.. the jump is terrifying. I enjoyed this a lot.. I got to round 120 I think was my best. I really like the way you handled "upgrades" the first time you come across them, very clever and thoughtful.

Echoing HolyBlackCat here, couldn't run it just got a grey screen.

Refreshed a few times and once got a progress bar which stuck at 10% or so.

Fun but a little bit repetitive. Playing as an egg is cool! :) I liked the credits music =P

A competent runner, the spawning RNG can be cruel. Feels a bit under-varied. And what's the escalation? Does the game go faster the longer you go? There's not really any indication of that.

gotta say, a little disappointed that the egg doesn't actually roll as eggs do. it would make it harder to control though, so the barriers would need to be more forgiving. but this does play well, and I'm really digging the music

Thanks for the feedback! Given a bit more time, the egg should roll like an egg :p. It was a placeholder that stuck. Item spawn can be evil at times... And the 'slow' should be more common to make longer runs possible.

I've also seen item pickup misses which should have been picked up... Not sure why that happens but larger colliders would help.

I have no idea about the grey screen issue....

Glad to hear jump is a lil terrifying ;)

It is... Very... Repetitive.

I understand progression is not very clear, but you are getting faster AND you are getting larger (which will make you crash more)... So aiming for both themes (2 controls & growth) but it's not very evident....

The music is my favourite part, glad a few liked it too. And if you haven't already, check the credits ;)

Thanks again for playing.

Nice endless runner, cool music!
I didn't get the explanation for all extras, but most worked out.
