If you were going for a mood of "Panic" you hit it dead on. Good job!
I gave this an overall 3/5. It was cool, and actually pretty fun, but the thing was that I couldn't tell where 10 seconds came from. I guess you had 10 seconds to catch the terrorist, but couldn't you have made a timer to tell you that?
Was pretty funny, really hard, but when I was colliding with him it didn't do anything, so a generally buggy game, but it was pretty cool.
Funny sounds and graphics! Nicely tuned difficulty, it took a bunch of tries but I still won before getting frustrated :)
Thanks guys :)
Just remember, you have to catch him (from the top) before he deploys his chute.
Post your top score!!! Mine is 8 billion ;)
Not a bad concept, but could be executed a little better. Would be nice to have an indicator that shows where the traitor is when he's offscreen. The start collecting mechanic adds a nice extra layer of depth, but they could be a little more spy-themed. The art is a bit overly cartoony and could use a little more polish, but I do like Dan's character design, especially that distinguished 'stache.
Definitely needs some spanky spy-theme guitar riffs for extra atmosphere. The voiceovers sound pretty good, although Dan's line is a little too quiet. More sound effects, like wind wooshing and the parachute opening/fluttering would also be nice.
Pretty fun game! Little easy once you know the trick though. If you tacked on a few more layers of gameplay I could see myself playing something like this over and over again trying to beat my time.
'hehehehehe'. I landed on the parachute once, and didn't have to die! :D (when the parachute disappeared, i was on the bad guy's head)
Fun game. Love the voice acting.
It seems that I can't get a score higher than 2147483648, since the value that holds it is only four bytes wide. This must not be true for you if you reached 8 billion; I guess its a machine/browser dependent issue. Perhaps you should scale the point scoring down a bit?
Thanks! But that score issue is interesting... I never thought about that. Thanks for pointing it out!
Nice game, It took me a bit to figure out the controls, but for the rest is great.
Good job!
Nice to see another person made a game about falling out of an airplane without a parachute.
Once I understood the mechanics of the game, it played well. It wasn't obvious to me what the stars did nor that the clouds would slow you down (since there is very little to gauge speed by). I think if those were more clear, it'd be easier to get into.
Nice work, and nice voice acting.

TEAMS: Teams entering the Jam should pick a single representative to submit your game, or create a team specific account you can share. We currently do not support Team Voting, but sharing an account and together playing and rating games is acceptable.
NOT LOGGED IN?: If you get a message about not being logged in, even though you are, it’s because your web browser cached the non-logged in page. You can fix this by either refreshing your cache or clearing your cache. CTRL+F5 in many browsers. Chrome is a bit more work. Press F12 to enable Developer Mode, then you can right click on the refresh button and select “Empty Cache and Hard Reload”. This option is unavailable if you are not in Developer Mode.
PORTS: Ports to other platforms can be done after the deadline. That said, the sooner you finish your port, the sooner people can play your game, improving your chances of placing in the final results. For best results, provide a Web version of your game, or a Windows version with no dependencies. Also be sure to rate about 20 games to improve your visibility.
MY GAME DOESN’T SHOW UP: If you can’t find your game, it’s usually because the URL to your downloads are missing ‘http://‘. Fix your URLs (http://mysite.com/mygame.zip) and you will show up.
MY GAME CRASHES, IS UNBEATABLE, OR I MADE A TYPO: We allow you to fix crash or win condition bugs after the deadline (in a sense, like “porting” to support more players). We also allow “typo” bugs. I.e. A true that should have been a false, a word that should have been a different word, very tiny changes that you would have caught if you had more sleep. We leave this open to interpretation, but generally speaking your game should be identical to the game you submitted. No new features, just things you messed up last minute. Typos.
Nice game, but the controls needed to be explained somewhere ingame.
Still, quite fun!
