Enter Yarnland.

Using two buttons (up and down) you control two buttons on their journey.

Collect coins, buy upgrades, set new highscores.

OSX and Windows builds only run in windowed mode.

Interesting concept. Continually starting over because you didnt have the right upgrades kinda sucks, though. Nice work!

Nice idea.
But I don't know how to make the buttons jump higher.

Well done, no major bugs that I ran into. Sometimes the buttons don't jump when they are stuck against an obstacle, but it's not crippling.

Perhaps the shop option should be removed from the main menu, and the game should go to the shop automatically when a run is complete. Or, allow access to the shop throughout the run so it's possible to finish with one continuous (perfect) attempt.

Good implementation of the 2button theme. A small and krazy idea to keep the yarn thing even thighter: instead of coins = cotton reels => that you can trade for $ in the shop, then different coloured reels for different amounts :)

Interesting concept. Great use of the theme. Would love to see more use of keeping one ball behind or playing around with the fact that they can also move out of sync with one another. Great job!

I got utterly terrified after purchasing the speed upgrade; it gets *really* fast. This is a good thing! Interesting concept, would love to see it fleshed out.
