How does your game fit the theme?
The game is an endless runner that has a countdown, and the player loses when the timer reaches zero. There are items that players can collect (some of them have their own countdown which require timed input) to get more seconds. It is a literal intepretation of the theme.

Very simple, but does the job! It’s odd that there isn’t a score at the end. But the ride was fun.
Thank you! And yeah, I should have added some kind of score, my bad
I like the let's play voice at the start button. Nice little runner!
Thank you so much!
Wonderful voice lines, gameplay keeps you hooked! :)
Thank you so much!!
Really like the SFX, you recorded yourself? Original idea, but really addictive ngl
Thank you very much! Yeah, I recorded all of the voice lines myself, but I edited them in Audacity to change the pitch :D
I like the SFX :D It would be great to see how far down the mountain I descended. In the end it is a cool infinite-runner concept that fits the theme well :)
Thank you very much! And yeah, if I continue the game one of the first things I will add is the distance you have traveled!
Cool idea.
Thank you!
I really like the game idea! Avoiding obstacles and collecting the orbs was fun and addictive. The sound effects immediately caught my attention. Good job! :)
Thank you so much, glad you enjoyed it! :D
The Game was sow and nearly unplayable on my computer, I could not move left or right so I just eventually died. The game was super creative though, good luck.
Really sorry to hear that :( Thanks for trying the game though!
A fun game! I really enjoyed the sound effects
Thank you, appreciate it!
Cool entry! The gameplay loop is kinda addictive, which is cool. I personally experienced some strong freezing at the beginning, but after that, it was fine. The sound effects are really funny, I like them. Congrats on the submission!
Thank you! Yeah the freezing at the beginning is an issue unfortunately and I couldn't manage to fix it in time, sorry about that!
This was fun, and the sfx and music were very funny, the lag spike at the beginning nearly made me not play. Also, would be nicer if the orbs always spawned in a safe place, because sometimes they were inside obstacles. I would make the hitboxes of some of the obstacles smaller, sometimes it felt unfair to be damaged. But other than that, nice graphics, great work!
Thank you very much for the feedback! And sorry for the lag spike and for the game feeling unfair at times.
I could definitely see myself playing a full game of this, especially with more of these great sound effects
Thank you, glad you enjoyed the sound effects! :D
The game has an addictive loop, we some more polish i could put some hours on it. However, the pickups with the alternating buff seem impossible to pick up with the bonus time, however if you ignore then and go only for the +5 bonus, you run out of time shortly. That aside, cool little game!
Thank you for the feedback! For the buffs that count down, you need to be facing towards them and you have to press the button that collects from afar (Z, right mouse button, or gamepad right shoulder button) at the right time, when the text on top of them is green and not red. But yeah I agree it is not very intuitive or obvious and could definitely use some polish.
Ah, I see! I completely missed that mechanic. I'll give it another try!
I love the little guy running!! Its very easily addictive, good job!
Thank you very much!!
great game! idk if its just a me thing but it would constantly freeze :(. other than that really fun!
Thank you! Yeah unfortunately it freezes at the beginning, most likely because of shader compilation, but it should run fine later. If you're having issues with the performance of the Web version, you can try downloading the Windows or Linux version!
Good fun and loved the sound effects 🔥🔥
Thank you so much!
The audio is fire! It is fun to play. Would be great if you could see an ending score each run but this is nice :)
Thank you very much! Yeah that is a great idea, I wanted to add this but I run out of time :D
I found the ‘ouch’ sfx very fun ahahah well done!
Hahah thank you very much!
