Toxicity Run by StefGrizzly
Toxicity Run is a little arcade game. You must go deeper and deeper as fast as you can. On your way you'll have to act fast to complete mini games.
At the end, you'll be able to compare yourself to others. Hope you enjoy it!

It would be nice with a reset button, since it takes some time to refresh the page every time I did amistake. Also sometimes the minigames feel a bit unfair, like suddenly having to type philanthrophist or deeperanddeeper.
I like the randomness of the minigames though. It's nice feeling lucky getting many fast ones in a row.
I realy like the mini games when you enter in a pipe. It surprised me when it first appeared.
Great Work :smile:
For suggest something i think the pipe mini game to press space when the point is in the center needs maybe one method to avoid spam space if is not intended, but mini games in the pipes are very creative and fun.
I played the game about 10 times, so it's definitely got some good appeal and addiction! Some feedback on what I felt:
- I'd like more minigame versatility!
- Obviously, new maps are fun too :)
- There's one shortcut I saw toward the end, that was a nice touch.
- The left/right/jump controls didn't feel particularly "tight". Everything was a bit floaty which made it hard for me to want to speed run more times. (Obviously we're in spacesuit so floaty is part of your mood, but it just felt awkward to walk or jump sometimes!)
- Jumping and bumping your head on ledges is not fun. If you can remove the hitbox on ledges, that'd feel nicer.
Overall, great little proejct!
Obviously there's virtually infinite potential for what games or puzzles could be used in the tubes, it would be awesome to see it expanded with more ideas and variety to really challenge people. A few more sounds involved in the process would help refine it a lot as well.
The integration of the leaderboard is a fantastic touch and is what really sets up the players motivation. The inherent randomness of the game works against that just a tiny bit, but even still it's a huge factor in what makes the game fun. Excellent choice on that.
Nice concept, it's a pitty this game is too short and yes, randomnness plays against leaderboard, i guess.
(can't login to the leaderboard. Should I login itchio first? done. stil can't put my score)
