VERY fun game! I love the added rules. Seems like a game that was made in a few weeks, not a few hours.
Very Nice, didn't tought it was made in HTML until I saw the text in the right upper corner.
Nice! I love the fast pace and variety, and how I gradually learned how to play the game better each time I tried.
Really cool game! I like how you interpreted the theme and the game is addictive. Fun and well-executed.
Really nice! I'm not entirely happy with the fact that the best strategy with the shield is to spam the hell out of it...
Very fun game! I love the random evolving rules! It made me play again and again to see how far I could go. Good graphics too! And good job on the game being complete, with a welcome screen, game, conclusion screen, and even random tips! The only thing I'd change is to make it easier to see how charged my shield is.
Died really quickly without knowing what was going on. On repeated playthroughs I had a better idea of what was going on, but there's no agency over what ability unlocks and I didn't really find there to be enough time to read the text with black triangles showing up under my feet and stuff all the time.
Great work achieving this in 48 hours.
Really fun, but I wasn't sure why I was growing. It didn't seem like I could do something to trigger it.
I thought the game was very creative! I love the concept, VERY original! And I kept going back to play more and more! I'll admit that when i first started I kept dying over and over... But once I got the hang of it, I was hooked :)
This was unexpectedly super cool, controls are a bit one dimensional
I really liked this idea, actually. I find that indefinite games usually get too repetitive for me; you always have to spend several minutes in every run as it builds up difficulty, before it finally gets interesting. With this game the events are always in different orders, leading to a more interesting beginning/middle/end. Good job!
It got really laggy for me as it progressed though, not sure if that's just me.
Nice feeling of action when you always have to keep moving. The idea to use circles as the walkable area was unique and seems to work well.
Cool idea :) Felt a bit ambushed and helpless with how quickly the boss killed me :(
Fun little game. I like the fast pacing and high difficulty, very addicting. Also nice visual details everywhere. Great job =)
I am BLOWN AWAY by the originality, fun and HTML5 goodness. Very well done! 60fps!
I love it - a lot of gameplay in a neat HTML5 package. I love the dynamism. The only thing it lacks is sound! I need a *thump* when I land.
This is the kind of game that you can get good at. Where the player levels up (evolves), along with the avatar on screen. Great use of the theme! I would love to play a super polished version of this. It was also great to see the cause of death, because the life cycles can be pretty rapid. Good Game.
Also, the map generation is really pretty. It looks like huge paint splotches hitting the ground.
Very fun and frantic. Very challenging but fast paced, so I kept playing it again. The fact that it seemed procedural helped it not to get repetitive either. Great!
Woo, quite possibly my favourite game so far. Looks great, plays great and there is really good sense of fast gameplay here.
I also like how you very intuively present all the mechanics and variables during the game. This is the right way of doing a tutorial :)
This would be even more brilliant with some sound and frantic music. You should definitely continue working on it.
I don't know how I died the first time but the concept is funny and the difficulty well dosed, even if have to restart each time is boring. The dynamism of the game make it really funny to play ;-)
I really like this idea. The game gets pretty hard too. I played it a few times, which I normally don't do because there are so many games!
Excellent work on the procedural aspect. It's really fun trying to see more permutations.
Really nice concept and execution. Would be even better with music!
Wow, I love this one! :D
However, you should do something about the end screen because it's easy to start a new game without seeing it.
Add sound to it and some fast music like in Sonic post-compo please! :)

Amazing, the controls are sometimes a bit choppy, but a great game!
