🎮 How to Play
\nJump: Long-press
\nScoring:
Passing a cat successfully increases your score.
\nHitting a cat or failing to ace the landing decreases your score.
\nSpoiler: You must land within ±45° degrees of the tangent of the mountain slope…on your wheels
\nCool concept, but I wish there was a better visual indication of when you missed a jump. I quite liked the sound, the music fit the vibe well

The animations were really smooth and the trance soundtrack was really really good, it’s a good concept for a chill game. What’s more satisfying than landing back flips on a bike?
\nAs an addition to the gameplay, it would have been nice if the difficulty increased as the game went on, either faster and/or more cats. It could have also included more cat themed elements.
\nReminded me a bit of line rider and the chrome “network error” dinosaur game. Nice entry 👍

Add some screen shake, a better HUD, faster jumps, more things to avoid, and you could have something really cool.\nCurrently it feels like you’ve seen the whole game within the first 5 seconds, which is a shame because simple games like this can still carry significant depth.
\nAlso don’t forget to credit whoever wrote the song in your description. I see you did it in your readme but not on your entry page.

The music is really great, it made me want to keep going.

\nIt has a lot of potential, but it has gone unrecognized.
\nReally great music though!

\nIt’s quite easy to get the hang of
\nI wasn’t sure if there was an ultimate goal or target score, or does it just keep going forever?

I’d suggest adding a bigger screen and giving the game some more depth. It has a lot of potential, but right now it feels a bit too simple. Maybe adding a story or progression would make it even more engaging.

It would be more entertaining with a narrative intro, some variability in the speed mechanics, and a greater diversity of gameplay elements. Appreciate the effort you’ve put in - really dig the music track, by the way!
\n","games":["Cat Survivors"]},{"at":410740827,"author":"Attila Horváth","login":"attilahorvath","gh":4081005,"text":"Nice clean graphics and a great background track but I found this a bit too simple and not much to do with the theme. It doesn’t increase in difficulty as you go further and there seems to be no end condition so the score doesn’t have much meaning. Adding either a timer or a fail condition after a couple of bad landings with a high score counter would make it way more engaging. I think it should also speed up and throw more obstacles your way as time goes on.
\nWorks well on both my phone and laptop though with reading the inputs and displaying smooth animations and it’s really easy to pick up and play, so great job there!

It’s relatively similar to Alto’s odyssey if I recall the name correctly; though there are a couple of things to improve the game overall in my opinion. I think you should either say in-game that jumping is triggered by clicking, or add Z, W and up arrow. I also think there should be something a bit more challenging like rolling cats or something like that. Finally, maybe you could speed up the game as time increases to make jumping more difficult or upgrade the score even more within about 10° maybe? Those are potential improvements, but the game is pretty good as it is, so congratulations!

\nIt’s very raw in its current state. Tune is a banger though.

\nNice music.

A little acceleration over time, or a defined ending with a score, would make it more engaging.

It made me keep playing longer than I expected.\nThe gameplay is simple, but it is fully playable. It took my a while to understand exactly how to fall to get points, but then I got good at it (which means I had a feeling of progression).\nOverall, it is nice little game with a great background music.
