I actually had a lot of fun playing this. Perfectly chaining together jumps and slides felt really rewarding and it was fun trying to time my jumps to get to more water bottles. The sound design was also very good. Really solid game all round. Well done!

Thank you so much :D, I'm glad you could enjoy playing my game

Loved the simple controls and the idea in overall. The game really fits the theme well, my record was somewhere near 2.5km, couldnt do better than that. 

Developer

Thank You so much for play and Review :)

I got 2.67 km. I think that's pretty good, no? I liked the difficult curve. Whenever I would miss a jump, I saw the other path with more water bottles and kept thinking, there has got to be a way to get up there. And once I managed it, I felt like it taught me to have a better sense of the controls and how to combine sprinting with jumping. That was really cool.

Hey, thank you so much. I'm glad you liked the alternate route haha, I put more water bottles in there to give a prize to players who manage to go through the harder route.

This was pretty fun. I liked how the upper route is hard to get to when you first start, then as you get faster it becomes more accessible. It was also really satisfying and fun at those parts where you can go sliding is series while you sprint! 

One note, though: There was a part of the track that I sometimes seemed to get softlocked at for some reason. It only happened twice, and it didn't really ruin the experience for me, but I thought you might want to know so that you can fix it when the jam is over if you wanted to.

Developer

Hey, I'm glad you liked. And thank you for the feedback and advice about the softlock. Actually I asked my cousin to play my game today and he also got softlocked after a slide, so I'm definitely gonna do an update to fix that after the jam, I only realised this problem today, thank you so much :)

Great entry! Would you like to try our game too?

For a first time game jam, this is incredible. First off, I love what inspired you to make this, exercising. Its so unique and I feel it makes it more personal to you. The game itself is very fun as well, I love that there is a harder upper route and slower bottom route, very sonic the hedgehog in that regard. Congrats on your first game jam, this was awesome!

Developer(+1)

Thank you so much, dude :D. I tried to put some water bottles on the upper route to give a prize to the players who can take that route. I'm happy you liked that. Btw, I showed the game to my dad and brother and they liked haha. Thanks for playing and for the review :)

This was a fun runner! I like that we made kind of similar style games :D. The new record sound was really satisfying, and I liked the speed boost mechanic as well. Great job!

Developer

Thank you so much :) . I was afraid that the sounds could be annoying but I see people are liking them lol. Thanks again

good job on your first jam!

this is pretty cool and fun to play - I like the mechanic with the speed boosts every day

Developer

Thank You so much! I'm Glad You've enjoyed

I really liked it, this was a fun game. I did liked the sound effects whenever you reached like a new record or +1km. Reading the description of the game, it is honestly very wholesome and cool that this sorta portrayed training with your dad and brother. Good stuff!

Developer

Thank you so much, dude. It means a lot!

Cool concept and decent art made it to 2.6km, it kind of looks like those old friv games great job, i would appreciate you giving my game a shot and try it out.

Developer(+1)

Thank you so much, actually I used to play some friv games in the past lol. I'll check your game too

Took me a while to figured out that player gets faster each day passing by , thats smart for the theme . Love it ! Check out mine too

Developer

I forgot to explain that inside the game itself, so I only explained in the game page on Itch.io. Thanks for playing and reviewing, I'll check your game too

The game looks great, for a starter you did an awesome job. I feel the connection between the theme and the game was a bit weird, I didnt understand too much, maybe a cutscene or a text saying that it would be his first race maybe? I dont know I feel I wanted a plot on this game, it would be nice to understand why or if he was actually getting started. The gameplay is simple, makes sense and I feel some controls were hard to me to understand. Great art and concept, nice job overall!

Hey, thank you so much for playing and for your detailed review. If you don't count "The Castle"(The Castle is the another game in my profile, that was made with a tutorial, so it's not original), One Two Start is my first original game, I must confess I still didn't learn how to do cutscenes, so I tried to explain the theme fit in the game page. I'll try to do bettter the next time, thanks for the tips :)

I like the progression, as both the player and the character both get better at the game. I feel like with improved player mechanics and some better spritework, this could be a really fun game.  Right now the movement just feels kinda janky.

Developer

Hey, thanks for playing and review my game. I'll try to do better in my next game or maybe in an update for this game post-jam. Thanks for the tips.
