This is a cute little hampter game. Very classic. Keep making games!
Yay Pico for the win. Really fun idea, those little critters kept stopping under me though which drove up the wall...I mean wheel. Lovely little graphics, a gorgeous wheel. I scored 25 after several attempts 👏♥️
I also made my game in Pico 8! this is super impressive, it was a bit difficult judging when I needed to jump because of the aliens slowing down but other than that, this game felt super good.
This is cool! I should really try my hand at making a PICO-8 game someday. The unpredictability of the aliens (? bugs?) combined with the floaty horizontal controls makes this pretty tough, but the jumping feels just right, which I think is what's important. My high score was 31. Great job!
A very unique concept that has a lot of potential. If there were a way to change up the enemies once in awhile or their configuration in order to add variety, I think that would go a long way. The core concept of being able to control which way you run in the wheel in order to outrun or be able to dodge the enemies is a very creative interpretation of the theme.
Hey there! It's a pretty cool game :D
I liked the hamster jumping and collecting the apples, I thought the sound effects were nice and the simplistic art style was really cool as well.
Here are some points of improvements:
- A simple in game tutorial would be nice because I didn't know you could jump until I read the description😭
- Some background music would be nice and add to the overall game :D
Other than that, its pretty cool
Very nice game! I enjoyed my time with it. My only suggestion would be that if there could be some auditory or visual cue when the enemies are about to speed up or slow down, that would have helped me out. That, and some background music would help to add to the atmosphere, I think.
But all-in-all, a really fun game. Kudos!
Loved this, pretty simple and easy to understand. Sometimes the enemies would stay in one place for a long time before moving again, but besides that, it was pretty fun!
What a nice game, so simple yet, strangely addicting.
My high score is 53, it's a bit difficult to start, but once you get the hang of it, you can start to better avoid the obstacles and it becomes very satisfying.
