No Rush is a fast paced obstacle runner which places you in a 1-bit enviroment. Move your way down the platforms to escape impending doom. But don't go too fast or you might just fall to your death!

Use the A/Left Arrow and the D/Right Arrow keys to move around the levels. When a gateway is locked, get the key of that level so that you can proceed.

Use the mouse to navigate the menu (I know that makes it three buttons but the game itself is 2 button controlled)

Super fun! I got to fitty points! Woulda benefited from some sick music, though! Your art was really on point. Good job!

Very fun game, loved the graphics. The spikes at the bottom seemed a bit unfair though, because when two gaps lined up it was impossible to avoid death.

A very nice game! Fluid and fun. I really like it. It is one of those games where you can get in the zone and play with for a while.

Very good game! Nice style with the art and music, also nice that the platforms continue moving in the menu. The only point of improvement I can think of is a bit more difficulty slope in the genereation of the platforms/speed, and maybe a good background chiptune. Also nice name, my name is Jerre :p

No rush. Except, do rush! But not too much. Okay you can rush again.. This game is very nicely executed.

My favorite semi-random arcade style game so far. Very fun, smooth gameplay. I know this is asking alot bc i dunno if thers a host site that would support it but with these types of games I wish you could see the LD-wide top score so I could try to beat what other plays did rather than competing with myself. But again, thats asking alot.

You did a good job of making blocks and shapes have personality (better than most I've seen) but I after seeing so many sometimes I just wish the little square at least had eyeballs and facial expressions or something.

All this to say: sweet game brother.

Everybody, thank you so much for the support. I love making games and like it when people enjoy playing them.
As for the feedback up until this point, I'll try to adress it here:
- The intended target will eventually be a mobile device so that was a good guess Eddynardo.
- As for music, I'm not that good in making music myself, but I will definetly consider it when expanding the game.
- Also, I made it impossible for the game to be impossible, you can change direction in mid-air and there is only 1 wall at the same time ;)
- An online score board is deffinetly something I'd wish to try, but with this time-span it was impossible to implement that for me.

Anyways, thank you all for playing and voting and thanks for all the feedback, I'll try and implement as much as possible and hope you continue playing my game.
