IF THE GAME IS RUNNING POORLY ON YOUR COMPUTER...

Just run "BerryThorny_LowSettings.bat" instead of the normal executable. This will launch unreal in super low settings.

Really polished work! Controls feel great and the sense of speed is messaged well. Jumping felt just a little too weighty but that is a minor gripe. Materials and FX feel juicy. The destructible obstacles convey weight well when you hit them and I actually wanted to smash them just for fun. The berries should have an even more satisfying pop to convince me to hit them instead!

Lots of fun! Good job! I love seeing procedural generation employed well in LD entries.

The frame rate was pretty poor at times on my machine, but not so much as to be a problem - and certainly understandable considering this was put together in 48 hours.

Controls really well although I too think the jump feels weighty, I was expecting a loud metallic CLANK sound when I landed. It's pretty fun though and the music changing with the speed is a nice touch.

Awesome job ! The graphics are amazing, gameplay is addictive, the music is great. And procedural generation ?! It's an impressive game you've made !

Nice looking game. simple but addictive. The UI is not as beautiful and polished as the gameplay though. Well done!

Great game. Liked the change in audio as it got faster. Good job.

Fun stuff! Looks great and controls are spot on. The music getting slower and faster adds to the frantic and mindscrewy nature of the game. Nice job!

Beautiful and fun game. For some reason I would get low fps sometimes but that could have just been a fluke.

Good game, though it it is not friendly for slower PCs. The controls feels good, though there's too much weight on the jumping. I really like the produceral generation, while keepig gravity focused on the tubes/pillars/or what it is called in English. In conclusion: Nice game, could use some quality settings for slower pcs.

Cool game! Really liked that the music changed speed and pitch while playing. Only problem for me is that the frame rate wasn't very consistent. (gtx 670)

Very cool look but it had trouble running on my machine so it was harder to play.

Pretty cool! The game was fun and the graphics were awesome, but it was too laggy on my gaming PC. Consider offering settings for graphics.

The frame rate of the game was poor similarly to rjhelms experience but overall the game was fun. Good job in making a game that integrates procedural generated elements and replay value. The "New Highscore" was a nice touch as well.

Reminds me of the vr game Radial G
Graphics look pretty, almost impossible to tell if by turning there will be obstacle though.

Could use some better camera because sometimes you can't see what's ahead but overall quite good game.

I really enjoyed the game, and the push and pull of getting powerups and getting hurt kept me playing for a while. There was a bit of latency for me, but I'll test out the lo-fi .bat and maybe squeeze some more gameplay out of it. The graphics look really amazing, and I loved the music! Great work!
