Somethingmon Crash by Nardom
The Game:
YOU are the pokeMONSTER and it is your turn to collect trainers! Gotta catch 'em all!.. Well, not really, some will try to stop you. Continue your great escape and see how far you can get.
Controls:
Collect up to 3 red or blue trainers to gain a horizontal boost (+50 m/s) [left mouse button]
Collect up to 1 gold trainer to gain a diagonal boost (200% m/s, +100 vertical velocity) [right mouse button]
There's a list of upcomming trainers in the lower right of the screen to keep track of your favorites
Words:
I always wanted to make (or try to make) a Katawa Crash like game. The idea was quite simple, yet I feel I didn't even get close to the 'original' (Which in fact is Nanaca Crash!!, but not the one I was aiming for).
I was aiming for LD48, had some issues, so LDJAM it is. More words and info can be found @ the web version.

It seems that the gold trainer is very overpowered, as it doubles your speed and increases your vertical velocity (and, as long as you're airborne, nothing will stop you).
I like the cylinder effect on the background, but besides that there's not much to say. I'd suggest limiting the vertical speed (maybe add some kind of ceiling that'll bounce you down if you get too much vertical velocity). Either way, it's quite fun to play. Been a while since I've played Nanaca Crash! Good job!
