Guide the red ball through the Abyss in a sea of dangerous blocks! Abyss is an entrancing game featuring minimalist style art and music. Avoid blocks and pick up points by running into point cubes and try to beat your high score. But try not to be hypnotized by the music and the visuals of the just out of reach end of the Abyss!
Overall not a bad game, after a little practice I managed to get 43000. The block exploding mechanic encourages movement through the center when you'd otherwise avoid it, which is good. The perspective takes some getting used to, it can be hard to tell how far away things are. It also feels a little "flat," you might think about ramping up the difficulty over time to keep it interesting.
Fun mechanic, but it's a bit hard to tell what's the depth of the objects on scene. Reminded me of the bonus levels on Earthworm Jim, going for the obstacles when you had the power-up.
Very nice game! It is hard to see how close you are to the obstacles... needs something to help player gauge the scale. I enjoyed it very much, though!
Pretty cool! If you want to make it easier for players to gauge depth try enabling fog in the render settings, or you could also add some varied point lights throughout the tunnel and make the obstacles a darker color so you can see the lights play along the surface as they move towards you.

Not bad, but I didn't like the music very much... sorry! Otherwise cool, like you are a blood cell floating in a vein or something... Player speed could be increased a little bit, that would be perfect!
I like the core concept, visually it reminds me of the Funkyboard segments from Rayman 3. The music is fine at first but it quickly gets tiring once you realize the kick-ass drum beat you keep thinking is going to kick in never does.
You should add a sound when you hit a bar and loose life, when you grab a bonus it makes a crash sound that really let you think you did wrong. The game itself is fun to play and I like the music too.
