Death Chasing - Escape your fear A simple game where you are racing against death. Why does it chase you? Who knows. But you are not empty handed, you have an ace in the sleeve: the STONE COLUMNS. Instruction: Press Space to spawn column Every 3 consecutive yellow column will give you a red column
character looks pretty cool! And that was defiantly great choice of mechanics for the first jam. Welcome! We have to ask developers add one more score - how complete game feels. This one looks like ready to ship., so you have build skill on estimating task!
At first, I thought this was going to be very straight-forward, but it quickly escalated and twisted my expectations in interesting ways. Really well designed and visually awesome!
@jamjamem@Mavvy, thank you for your thoughts. It is nice to see you guys enjoy it. I didn't know how well the difficulty curve work but hope it work =))
Great work! The art is awesome. I really enjoyed how the challenge escalated with each twist you added. It really elevated the game experience, and made me want to play a couple more times to improve my score and get better at it.
Nice and simple game the bar at the bottom reminded me of Stardew valleys fishing mechanic which is awesome. It was neat and seeing death approaching slowly as I ran out of pillars was nice an anxiety inducing.
It was really unexpected when the bar started moving. :) Lost on 251. Nice graphics as well, but too bad you didn't make any music nor sound design, there is a lot potential.
This is a really unique take on theme! I really like the personification of death, and the gameplay mechanic in general is super cool! I also really like the art style. Good job!
I just finished review your game at https://www.twitch.tv/scalphamission. The bar being at the bottom kind of draws our eye from the terrific artwork that is happening in the center and im not crazy about the overall mechanic. I have some ideas of how to punch it up if you're interested.
Wow and I thought I got far with 200. Shouldn't have read the comments if I wanted to keep feeling proud. The blue bar felt like it didn't always hit right when I pressed space but that might just be browser-timing.
Great job! I really like the design of the character and the Reaper, as well as the animations. The mechanics are very well thought out and it is very funny how it will become more and more difficult to escape from death xD. well done!!
Wow. I really like this one! I like the timing aspect, and how it gets increasingly difficult, by making the timing window smaller, and eventually making it bounce left and right. I've only played a couple of times, but my high score was just over 200.
I'm bookmarking this one for future play. I want to challenge myself, and see how high of a score I can get. Some calm music, that changes over to tense music when things get hectic, might spice things up. Other than that. It's super simple gameplay mechanics, but super fun to play!
Great job! And, a very smart take on making a simple game as interesting as possible. I love it :)
