This felt like a Tony Hawk Pro Skater X Flea collaboration, and I am all for it. And the flea is?? Cute???! It was addicting to deck him all out too! I actually got on tonight with the intent of playing a couple more games before the ratings close and I couldn't believe how much time I spent on this one game! I can tell a lot of care was put into this, it really does show. It's a ton of fun! Great job!

very very good 

the upgrades were a must have and really put the game all together

the only issues i had is that the gameplay felt REALLY fast while the player was slow (imo)

other than that great entry

I will make a meme about this game

The setting is super cool! The visual of the huge comb coming at you is a great moment that was immediately recognizable. It felt good to move fast, though I couldn't get the hang of landing myself at the same angle as the ground. I wish I was able to earn drops quicker so I could try more of the power ups, feels like I would get addicted by slowly improving Nick. Fun game!

Many people have been commenting about not being able to land well which is on us for not making it more clear. There’s a strict cutoff for ‘perfect’ landings after which you’ll preserve all your speed. But all ‘ok’ landings aren’t made the same (can be anywhere from 50% to 99.99999% preserved speed). In fact likely most of your ‘ok’ landings preserve 90%+ of your speed. Regardles, thanks for playing the game and we’re glad you liked the theme!

It's very fun to be flea fleeing forward! And slick it certainly is! I love the ominous effect with the soap suds approaching, and the sound of being under the soapy water. The presentation is excellent, it's all very polished, the UI with the shop is great. Also the comb as an obstacle is brilliant!
