The game is very fun, but short. I would like either a longer level or several levels. Good job! :)

It was fun to play! This would be very addictive as a mobile game with some extra features! :D

Interesting game idea and nice art although the musics a bit loud and the levels seemed a bit samey

@veeti-sundqvist glad you like it :) I will think about a mobile game in a near future, depends if more people like the idea.

Nice idea for the theme. Sadly took me three tries to understand which spermium I am and about the controls since the GUI says "Righjt Click" although it's left click (and you have to hold it I think). A little said that the competition died quite early and I had to play nearly half of the run with 2 competitors and a little later alone. Still, nice concept and with some tweaking definitely a nice game!

Couldn't realize where my character was in the beginning :sweat_smile:, so I would recommend you to make it a bit more different than the rest. It's a small detail but i feel like the game would feel much more professional. The art style is nice, and the game was quite fun to play. Good job!

Nice little game! I also had some difficulty to find the character and get used to the controls, but after that it went very well! :)

@themista92 yes, we know that the UI and main character needs improvement to better understanding, about the run, its totally random, and it was our purpose to let only a few competitors at late game.

It was fun when I got the controls.

The font was a bit hard to make out, I thought first that it said "G" to sprint... Also it seems to say right click for direction, but its left. Also the first time around I didn't know who I was.
