Such a good game concept! Level 7 was too hard, no idea how to get over the big wall with the mechanics :p But the theme was implemented sooo well. The invisible countdown timer, constant stress, managing stamina and guessing how long it takes till it beeps. This might make for a fun multiplayer parkour game concept

Yeah that jump might be my fault. The levels are slightly randomized, but I still know exactly what one you're talking about. I did think I made that easier during dev, but turns out I didn't. If you jump from the far right block,as close to the middle wall as possible, you can make it over.

We're glad that the the constant stress of the actual FitnessGram™ PACER Test seemed to have been captured.

Thanks for the idea of multiplayer. I'm putting it in our Evil Notes™ for later >:D .

Haha good! We spent around an hour just picking music to be the most nostalgia-baiting.

Lol this was really funny. I thought it was just gonna be running back and forth for awhile but it was cool when stuff started showing up. Wish the sprint regenerated a little faster, felt like there was no hope once it got too low. Tricky jumps in there!

"[F]elt like there was no hope once it got too low" was both exactly what we wanted and also good point. It probably should've stayed double speed. The intention was to force the player to walk quite a good amount of the time, or find the energy pickups when they spawned.

This game felt so surreal in a good way lol. I really liked how suspenseful the game got near the later levels. I also liked the art style and the bonus cat :3. Nice job!

Loved the fitness gram pacer test/ squid games vibenlol. I love the spacial audio, as well as the sketchy, eerie aesthetic brought by the visuals. Killer game!

An interesting 3D platformer with a silly premise. Pressing CTRL and W at the same time makes the window close, and the camera appears to drift to the right. Also, you can pet the cat in this game. 5 / 5 enjoyment.
