A very ... fast game, and quickly boring... Good idea, however ;)

This is very abstract visually but interesting nonetheless, well done! :D

Best game about sloths and syringes I've ever played :D Props for making an HTML5 game!

Nice game with an interesting idea. It's a bit hard though. Sound effects would be nice.

It's too fast for my old nerves :)

I wish you didn't restart at the first level every time you died. Otherwise pretty cool.

That is a really fast moving sloth! Some sounds and music would be nice. It's also a little frustrating to start again from level 1 everytime you die. Apart from that, nice game.

Look how speedy it is. o___o Seriously, that sloth is too fast for me. Couldn't even get to the third level. :(

@ShellfishGames, That's when you try again =) I love the kind of games when you have to grind it over and over again and do it perfect to complete the entire thing =)

Speedy! I like the idea, I can die 10 times per second :D

My reaction time is not good enough for this game. I couldn't make it very far. I think slowing things down, or giving the player some more room to see what's ahead would make the game a bit more fun. I do like to silliness of it all though.

That was fast. Though I don't like when you're dead you'll go back from the start of the game xD ... Good game.

When I read that this was about a sloth that was running away from a bomb I was very excited. Especially when I get to take drugs as a sloth. I was confused why the sloth moves so fast though. Bumping down the movement speed and maybe moving the camera a little closer (or a little bit up so we don't see so much dirt) would help. Great job for an html5 game though.

It is every sloth's dream to be this fast!

The speed of this game doesn't work well with the controls, the sloth gets very difficult to control and dying on the first thing that appears is frustrating. I like the irregular floor.

I never realized how fast sloths were... :)
