How does your game use the theme?
In platformers, we are always the runner - jumping, sliding, passing obstacles. In this game, the roles are inverted. In this game - we are the obstacle. We try to make it harder for the runner to pass the level. But runner gets smarter every round. How many rounds will it take?

Spoiler note about the twist
we are the obstacle

Addictive and fun to play!  but no audio :(

At first, I didn't read the instructions, so I didn't understand why the player was moving on its own.
It's an interesting concept, and I like it. 🙂

I loved the fact that I could just jump before him and drop down on his head!

A very original idea. It's fun to outsmart your opponent and block their path. I like it best when I can catapult him into the air.

This was so fun! Little dude broke my boxy ankles too many times haha
