Grow, Glow, Go by MHaton
Decided to try the reverse of last Ludum Dare where I went way too ambitious and instead create something simple but more polished.
Then I remembered I'm bad at both art and programming, so what the hell.
Endless runner that features both growing and two buttons. The green things make you bigger but drastically increase the rate your score increases. Going faster also makes your score increase faster...but you can't slow down. There's no button for that. Be careful. Press up to jump, you have a double jump (that's two jumps between landing, yes it makes no sense, but then you're a big blue ball rolling towards some red things with tiny happy robots on, nothing makes sense anymore).
I've experienced some issues running the executable on my computer that other people I asked to take a look haven't. I'd appreciate it if you'd let me know if it didn't run on your machine, as I'm not sure if it's just my computer or not.

I just love the starting screen too!
Nice job !
Thanks for the nice comments folks!
I don't really understand the need of speed up button, it just hardens the gameplay and you can just stay at low speed and collect points as long as you can handle
But it was fun to play, so great job!
