Game Description
You run and gain money to produce electricity for a greedy company.
How does your game tie into the theme?
In two parts: you're a bad runner so no one knows who you are, and you get trash talked by your father. Also, the company is kinda fishy and does "Unseen" things without the public knowing.

Really liking the game concept and I thought the controls are great - very responsive and fitting the game. IThe theme felt a little shoehorned. Overall, great entry - nice work!
That was a lot of fun, I played to the end! It was simple to play, the story was kinda sad but relatable lol
I only met Gerald once but I had both acrobatics and booster on so I was airborne for most of the race, didn't get to know him well 💁♀️
Graphics were nice, good job on the entry!
This is so good. I was having fun with the "getting trashed by your dad" kinda thing, I was feeling in character, started using dru- boosts, got first place and all that. But I was NOT expecting that ending. Such a cool concept, and execution, I liked it a lot!
Super cool game journey and narrative!
I thought the idea of the game was a fun one. Getting upgrades to try and better your place in races to earn more money is a pretty tight little game loop.
I think the player gets too easily lost amongst the number of NPC players in the race. It takes several moments, once the race starts, to get my eyes on the player, and, once I do, I’ve probably already run my guy off a cliff or against a wall, loosing me some valuable time.
I like that the race levels are short, but I feel that ledges and platforms aren’t the best idea. I know there’s an upgrade for higher jumping, but what I feel might have worked a little better would have been ramps and inclines for hills. Then the player could be slowed down trying to run up hills, instead of flat out stopped at jumps. Then the jump upgrade could be turned into a dexterity upgrade which would allow you to run up hills a little faster.
Over all, I think this has a solid idea
!
That was... fast ! XD
I had a lot of fun with this game - nicely done! Also, I got a Gerald!
Nice! First person so far out of 38, that's insane!
I missed the theme connection. I got a run that was totally flat which felt a bit underwhelming. I like the idea of getting faster over time, but was a bit confused on the story. Maybe I needed to keep playing?
It might make a bit more sense when you finish the game, but I know my game dosen't connect to the theme as much as it should. Thanks for playing!
