Run! The notorious Pepsi consultant is trying to sponsor the development of your Ludum Dare game. Who knows what he'll make you do.
Avoid obstacles to keep your speed up, and make sure he doesn't catch up with you. Dodge walls, spikes and fish to get to the end in the shortest time possible. You can either run on land, or dive into the water. There are generally less obstacles in the water, but you move at a slower speed, and have a limited amount of air.
Controls: ---------------- (Above Water)
Up - Jump
Down - Dive
(Under Water)
Up - Surface
Down - Swim Deeper
NOTE: The game is not well optimized. Please use the lower quality version if you have a slower computer. This removes all particle effects, water effects, clouds etc so the graphics won't be as good as normal.
Good idea with the above and below surface choice, but it seemed for the most part it was easier to just stay on the surface. I think a couple of sections should have required diving more. Good challenge though, it took a good few tries to beat the last level :D
I like the idea with switching between above/below but I have some terrible performance issues (on both normal and lower version) to the point it was almost unplayable after few seconds
Ok, I beat it this time. I assure you my computer is rather powerfull so it's strange it didn't work earlier, but nevermind. I had one issue this time, on third level once or twice red fish spawned above the ground. Also did you consider allowing player to move a little left and right to let him control the jump length? Raising your overall and fun after the fix ;)
The game has a really addictive vibe. The level design could be a bit improved, but I really enjoyed the game. Also I liked the characters (the player and the evil guy).
Great job overall. The difficulty was a little bit much and while I adored the red fish initially ... it came back to block what may have been a successful me once or twice.
Loved the graphics overall but they could use a unifying look (anti-aliased/pixelated).
I got addicted to it so that's a good thing.. I think.
I like how the theme is integrated with the mechanic. Going under the water was a nice twist on a standard runner (although I usually just ended up getting myself killed when I went underwater, those fish are tricky!) The difficulty ramp-up is pretty intense, if you keep working on this, some intermediate difficulty levels would help with this. Nice work!

Funny and I like meta games...
The little eskimo is real well done too.
But widescreen only. :(
After a dozen seconds or so, the game becomes choppy and unplayable. Tis a shame, this looked like it could have been fun to play.
Dddddouble theme!
Ttttwo levels in one?
Very cool. Would sponsor.
Awesome work, keep it up (:
