Known bug! Occasionally the game will start with a missing player sprite. It's best to just relaunch the game. Also, the game just looks much much better on OSX. No clue why!

The game is an infinite runner about moving on and deciding where to spend your time, thought and energy.

Space to jump, space again to double-jump. When you land on the ground, The One Beneath The Surface mimics your most recent jump.

You must find time and distance yourself from The One Beneath The Surface while doing your best to avoid her getting tumors.

Also! Sorry, OS X version does not include source, sorry! I'm going to include it with windows submission soon.

Really liked the way you interpreted the theme. It's really hard to play though...

Too hard to control, not very intuitive either. But I really like the idea

The idea is awesome yet the delayed controls makes it hard to enjoy. And most of the platforms are unreachable.

Dont have to include source in the platform distributions, just simply a separate source distribution

With more polish, I think the control issues could have been sorted out. It helps to imagine that the player is moving on a sinusoid, and then you can jump over the tumors more easily. Nice job!

I really like the concept of the two characters reacting to each other. Would be cool to see how this turns out with more time to work on it. Nice submission!

Very difficult. Also couldn't seem to jump one time on windows?

Like the use of sound and graphic, the gameplay could use some expanding though since it is just one difficult to time jump repeated over and over. I like that it actually had and ending.

Great idea, and pretty hard to play to :)

On windows 7 - one time, after 5 restart, it stopped responding to keyboard.
