Help Natura and restore the corrupted land in this 2d runner. Use W for jumping and E for activating collected powerups. All sprites are based on traditional art. The game has no saves so you will sadly lose your highscores. If you play at a lower resolution some GUI elements might get cut off.

If you can, play the web version as it is less buggy than the downloadable version.

This is so much fun and the artwork is fantastic! I do wish it had a faster death reset, cause I die...kinda a lot. However the procedural level design makes death less frustrating cause you're not replaying the same area repeatedly.

This is an awesome game! Very challenging also. The art and music is excellent. I really like how the grass appears behind you.

Really enjoyed this. The art style was great and the level generation tricky but fun.

Great level generation, adorable artwork, I love how the level changes as you walk. It seems like the jumping is finicky, though. It would be nice if the player had health instead of dying instantly.

Artwork and Audio is good, I like the way you change the song when the character dies pretty effective. It's hard but not frustrating. Overall one of the better games I have played.

The game was very fun, although you die a lot, you want to keep playing.
The time to restart the level is too long, but it's good to play different levels in the same stage. The way the character jumps is also a bit clunky.
Anyway, a very cute game.

Jumping mechanics were a bit too strict but I love the hand drawn art plus I like how the audio slows down when you die.

This game is super charming. I really loved the art direction for this. I'm not very good at it, but it I really liked this.

everything having a flowery state as you walk over it is pretty fun. nice work on all the hand drawn art

Loved the aesthetic. Combining something hand drawn with something procedural gave it a really interesting and pleasant feeling. Everything looked great so sometimes I just sat and watched the you lose screen so I can watch the clouds go by. The music was a perfect match for the mood and style. This game really made me smile :) Great job!

A really fun take on the 1-button runner. I enjoyed how your incorporated the theme visually and little touches like the parallax effect on the background shows you know what you're doing. Your art style is very unconventional but it works well here. The music was also great. Though the game was quite unforgiving and difficult to tell where my hitbox was, I had fun. Good job overall.

This game was fun. Love the overall style of the game and the art. It's a bit difficult but not impossible once you play it a few times. Good job!

Very cute game! I loved the art style, character designs, how the backgrounds changed. Level design was just challenging enough to feel satisfied with each obstacle I conquered. I really just want to explore this type of world. :( Was sad after I completed the last stage cause I wanted more.

Also the audio really set a nice mood, and even creepier mood when death occurred, great idea!

Adorable graphics but the gameplay was very unforgiving. I almost regretted getting the flying powerup as it suddenly disappears without no indication!

I really like the traditional-like drawings with that beautiful colours, it's really pretty! Music is so cute, but a little bit scary in the end, when it's "game over". I died a lot of times, but it's very fun even with the all game over's xd I like the concept with the nature and cute animations, good job!

Very cute indeed!

The balancing looks decent - I'm no platformer but I made it to level 2 just past the whale.
