a Mini game where you play as a deer exercising on an UNSTABLE treadmill that is changing its speed unpredictably.


tools

- Pygame - framework
- Aserpite - pixel art
- Bfxr - sound effects
- Audacity - making music

The game was made in 48 hours using Python with the module Pygame and my small engine,
you can find the source on Github.

how to play



you have to match your speed to treadmill's speed using Space Bar but if you slipped you will have another chance to get high score by dodging clouds in sky using WASD

hilarious game, but i feel like it's too easy.

@badmuchachob thank you, it's easy on the beginning after 30 seconds it will be harder.

This was hilarious, wish you could see the delight yet confused face I had when I started flying left & right in the sky. Awesome funny game! Loved the music

This totally feels like a fever dream. I love it! I find it a bit difficult to see the speed I'm meant to be matching, but I'm having a lot of hilarious fun flying through the sky :D

I pressed mute button to see if it works and I couldnt undo it hahaha Instant regret!!! Really nice game

Feels like two games stacked together, Warioware style.

Gave you good marks for humour.

Think you could have given us a longer audio loop, it was amusing when I first started the game but by third run was tired of it. Mute button didn't quite work for me - lead to some static.

I hope you enjoyed making this music x)

The concept is great, maybe the game is a little too slow though. The second phase is a bit too easy I think.

Great work overall!

The game is pretty fun. I really like the "plot" of the game about running a deer on a treadmill)) However, I almost broke my "Space" button and would like to get some profit from it as double points for running on a treadmill. Without this, there is no sense in running on a treadmill, because flying in the sky is much easier.

Game is fun, but not as good as I hope so. Your audio is not good, maybe next time skip it. Not good graphics, maybe next time. Thememaster, thats you are, fit into the theme.

I had good fun playing your game, thank you for that :slight_smile:

I enjoyed the "second chance" you get when falling from the treadmill. Flying as a dear, would recommend ^^

Well done on your entry! :thumbsup:

Very cute game with funny twist, I liked the color pallete and graphics in general. The core mechanic is simple, but enjoyable.

I love the transition from the treadmill to the sky, also the deer looks really funny with its legs twiddling.
The deer is dear to me at this put in time and so I was very saddened to see it hit a cloud at such velocity.
My score was 236

I like how there is a second part to the game when you fail the first

Wow I think it is a really great idea to bundle two games into one. A lot of these "unstable" themed games are unforgiving. But when I mess up on the treadmill it is like I have a second chance to boost my score. I though the voice over sound effects were a nice touch. The only thing I might do is add more features to the game to keep each section fresh. Maybe for the treadmill section you could have it be a rhythm timed thing, after all I always groove to beats when I work out haha. Also for the cloud section powerups that boost you and make you soar a quick burst forward while immune to the clouds. Overall I think the concept is solid. I am also really glad I got to play your game in time to rate it. My computer had a hard time with your download for some reason. I bet it is on my end and not yours XD
