“Cool game, but for me it’s definitely too hard. However, I really like the transitions between stages and the art style! The music kept me going, and it’s nice that there’s a bit of a grind element. The camera angle bothered me a bit at first, but after a few runs you get used to it :)

Developer

Thank you for your nice comment and for this feedback, I greatly appreciate it! Yes the game has an extremely high difficulty on purpose, especially with a camera angle that was made to be not conventional and not logical for readability on purpose either. I knew it was gonna stop/bother a lot of people, and I even know some people ended up rating full 1 due to this, but this is totally normal and expected. That's not a level of difficulty I would normally use in my games, as I like accessibility, but for this particular experience this is what I wanted for my story through design.

I'm really glad you liked some elements and ended up grinding through it a bit to try to reach the simpler times!

ABSOLUTE CINEMA (even though I suck at it it was fun enough to let me stay addicted long enough to it for me to beat it)

Developer

Wow you made it to the end, congratulations on reaching the simpler times! You say that you suck, but you're part of the few who actually made it to the end, so that's huge! Thank you so much for playing my game and for this nice comment :D

oh my god i love the song used during the running part

Developer(+1)

As the game is bloody hard, I really wanted a song that was catchy and motivating you to try and try again. so I'm glad it did have this effect for a lot of players!

In my opinion, this is one of the best implementations of the themes in this jam :>

Developer

Aaaaw thanks a lot for this nice comment and for trying out my game! I'm really glad you found the implementation original :)

The ability to buy more time and the cinematic intro was super cool! Sadly the game was too difficult for me, mostly because of the isometric view I think. But overall a nice game and a very unique way to integrate the theme.

Developer(+1)

Thank you so much for your comment! Yes, the difficulty and the non-traditional view for 3D runners making it harder was by design, so it's totally understandable that it was really difficult. I'm glad you gave it a go still, thanks a lot :D

Great game, the cut scene is perfect but I don't know it happened to me when character turn 16 years old my controller become stiff like it is hard to control the player but overall great game.   

Developer

That's actually because the gameplay changes when you reach this era: you get to an older era of gaming where movement wasn't direct in runners, but you were just changing lanes by pushing your direction button! 
Thank you so much for playing my game and for this kind comment :D
