Why? Because I told you to. And people said this!

Nice work on this, I liked seeing the Ikaruga-style mechanics in a runner, which I don’t believe I’ve seen before. If you continue this I would recommend a method of ensuring you don’t get “impossible” spawns or long stretches of spawns where you don’t have to interact (you can do this a couple ways, one way is pre-designing segments that work really well and just procedurally generating the segments, or you can figure out the minimum distance needed to swap and make sure things don’t spawn under that distance). Since swapping is the only mechanic you could really play up the polish on those characters and have them animating super cute! Playtest with the colorblind Overall really nice work!

You seem to use both this LD theme and previous theme aswell 😀
Simple game, simple graphics, but it all seems very organic and lovely!

Aside from the die-for-no-reason bug, that’s pretty fun! I think it can be a little tricky sometimes to tell what’s a power-up and what’s an obstacle. The music sounds a little harsh, but the sound effects are nice. Overall, I liked it.

The pixel art is very nice, and everything blends together fairly cohesively. The music is nice and fits the game well. If there were no bugs, I can see myself enjoying this game (even more). The random deaths were quite funny to me, but basically eliminate the competitiveness since it is more “player versus game” than “player versus player”.
