Got stuck on the cloud level, kept getting to places where there was NO good path, couldn't play anything after that level.
I liked it, the random clouds made it impossible at times but at the 10th attempt i won that level. I liked the chasing level after that. It was fun but it lacks a lot. The jump noise kept beeping randomly even when i was not jumping.
The running level was a bit too easy; I won by holding the up arrow and the right arrow.
Woah the cloud level should have been a boss level!
Committed to play it past the first level I had to try about 20 times :P
Neat game. I wish the controls were a little more smooth though. I don't have the patience at the moment to get through that cloud level. I'll try another day.
Aw, no timelapse. I love my timelapses.
Cool game. Frustrating first level. Man that was frustrating. I suck at games overall, but that was a hard one. But cool cloud jumper. Gave me the thrills.
Nice concept with the different mini games backing up a main story. Also cool programmer art. Though the main map could looked a bit more horrifying.
And yeah, a pain in the ass to play on Mac, but that's said to be a common case.
Neat game with potential, but needs some more playtesting. The clouds level was painful, the random generation just didn't seem to want to work 9/10 times. The running level also need obstacles that you could hit while jumping. Aside from that, I think you've laid down a solid foundation for a game.
the running game is difficult on the beginning if you can't take a good start, it need balancing. The cloud level was ok, fun to play.

Fun little game. The random cloud level can make for some frustrating and nearly impossible escape attempts.
