Interesting concept! I liked the explanation part in the game page. It was a creative way of simulating the scaling part!

I appreciate the development notes on the game page, This was my first jam using Godot so it's cool to see into other projects.  And that jam is kickin!

fun music and interesting idea to have the ground move like that! most unique runner I've played in a while!

I did not expect it to go vertical so that was quite a surprise. The gameplay was fun and the music and art were great. Once again the surprise when the camera went 45-60 degrees was big great job :D

Simple concept, but executed really well. The color palette is very appealing. I like how the slope angle changes the speed of the balls. Well done!

I enjoyed this one, and it was great to get some insight into how you made it on your itch page. Great work!

Very neat concept! Reminded me of the original Donkey Kong a bit. Pretty cool how it got much harder when the mountain was steep. I did notice a slight bug; if you walk all the way to the left off-screen and keep going, the character disappears from the screen (falls off the map? I'm not sure) and isn't hit by the boulders. Then the camera goes all the way to the finish and you win automatically. Also, I think it would be cool if there was someone at the end throwing the boulders. It could be fun to beat the game and reveal who the enemy was, to add a bit of story. Overall, great job!

The explanation was neat, it's cool to see how a simple but clever idea like that can pretty much build the whole game.

A nice simple little game. I wonder where all of these red balls are coming from?
