Unique take on the fairy tale! Movement is good and the concept of falling down as fast as possible is fun and compelling. Good stuff!

I really enjoyed this! I am unfamiliar with this style of game so took me a few runs to get anywhere really but I kept wanting to come back. Partly because of the soundtrack! Really nice music. I would have found it a little clearer what was happening with the platform that kills you if it was a higher contrast color or looked more dangerous than blending in with the rest of the scene.  Also maybe I didn't get far enough but do you unlock abilities to make getting to further depths easier? I unlocked some lore tabs which I enjoyed, but could be fun to add abilities to change up game play too.

Glad you enjoyed it! No, there aren't any unlockable abilities, just the dash you start with. We intended for individual runs to be pretty short, and I think the furthest any of us got while testing was around 1200m. At one point we considered adding the teleportation wildcard as a gameplay mechanic, but didn't have the time to implement it. Point taken with the electric platform; we probably should have animated it. Thanks for playing!

I liked this game, especially the game over music. Rock on Rapunzel

Fun game! The physics and art of a character and his hair felt really smooth. Got to 5800 score.

Sick! Did not expect to see a sci fi reimagining of rapunzel lmao. The music, sound, and art were all fantastic :)

When our music man pitched the first synth track I knew we had to do something sci-fi for this one, we were very happy with how it turned out. Thanks for playing!
