Fun game ! I'm a huge hyperburner fan and to be honest I was a bit disapointed by the grided movements, but after 3+ tries, I got the hang of it. Tilting camera to augment difficulty at higher level, is a weird idea but it works somehow, I had to turn my head to be able to use the control accordingly... more than 90° was a problem then :smile:

Chill! But often feel disoriented due to the moving background

Made it to 800, trippy game! The disorientation was key but something about the perspective made hard to understand were the obstacles were. It often felt like I was going to get hit.
Overall fun game, good job!

That was definitely challenging

very disorienting, but that added to the fun! I think you couldve skipped the grid movement since it feels a bit weird with everything else moving smoothly! wish there was audio though!

Nice idea. Sometimes it's difficult to notice if the spaceship would crash or not. Maybe it would work better in 2D. UI could be bigger. I don't know if non-grided movements would be better, they could, but if the graphic design was more clear, then it could work well even with grid.

Pretty cool. I agree with @arsvarg that the moving background can be a bit nauseating. It's also a bit hard to tell when you're actually in a safe spot because the wings sometimes clip through the obstacles a bit. All in all still a pretty fun game.

Good game, fun to play
The grid movement was weird but understandable

I got 979 :) pretty cool, though the lack of audio makes it a tad weird to play

The 16 position grid is an interesting choise, perhaps if the obstacles were easier to visualise as they approach you could really have something there.

Cool entry! I loved the tunnel-like background, a very cool effect. A fun little twist on the addictive endless-runner classic. I especially like the little explosion at the end. Good job!
