I was frequently wishing for a more parabolic arc on the way down, but it almost instantly became a linear float downward, like a feather or parachute rather than a marble.  This made it hard to touch the ground and reset the double jump.  Maybe that was intentional to add to the challenge, but it mostly just made me feel like control was being taken away from me."},{"author_name":"Jupiter_Hadley","author_uid":"27744","time":"Jan 4, 2016 @ 1:03am","epoch":1451869080,"text":"Really nice endless roller :P I included it in my Ludum Dare 34 compilation video series, if you&rsquo;d like to check it out :) https:\/\/youtu.be\/r75qiAihqqk"}],"images":["ld34\/49907-c7f0f8b9063179981e6648d78cc9e98e.jpg","ld34\/49907-95e86ef494944dca09520c54a4042981.jpg","ld34\/49907-2337a34784b616cf6e3679579a61ba82.jpg","ld34\/49907-0ad91504ec185855af69e280427e9fec.jpg"],"links":[{"url":"https:\/\/www.dropbox.com\/s\/epagsoh5tpaaq0p\/LD34-G3.exe?dl=0","text":"Windows"},{"url":"https:\/\/www.dropbox.com\/s\/qohcev701n85vl5\/LD34.gmx.7z?dl=0","text":"Source"}],"metadata":{"g_key":"6925","g_author":"49907","g_event":"LD34","g_eventkey":"31","g_subevent":"COMPO","g_urlkey":"6957","g_title":"Grow, Glow, Go","g_status":"UCHK1","g_place":"377","g_commentcount":"13","g_site2_node_id":"0","g_hide":"N","g_has_icon":"Y","g_rqueue":"0","g_random":"0"},"nds":[],"node":null,"orig_images":["http:\/\/ludumdare.com\/compo\/wp-content\/compo2\/\/511439\/49907-shot0-1450017041.png-eq-900-500.jpg","http:\/\/ludumdare.com\/compo\/wp-content\/compo2\/\/511439\/49907-shot1-1450017041.png-eq-900-500.jpg","http:\/\/ludumdare.com\/compo\/wp-content\/compo2\/\/511439\/49907-shot2-1450017041.png-eq-900-500.jpg","http:\/\/ludumdare.com\/compo\/wp-content\/compo2\/\/511439\/49907-shot3-1450017041.png-eq-900-500.jpg"],"text":"Decided to try the reverse of last Ludum Dare where I went way too ambitious and instead create something simple but more polished.\r\n\r\nThen I remembered I'm bad at both art and programming, so what the hell.\r\n\r\nEndless 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).\r\n\r\nI'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.","title":"Grow, Glow, Go"}
