I swear that after I finish a run I start seeing things the way people have described to me they see things after they have taken acid. Quite strange...

Very flawed game. You reach points where it's impossible to jump over the gully because you haven't gotten the speed required... and couldn't have since you've done nothing to slow your llama down.

Can you raise the framerate without dropping performance too much? At high speeds things stop moving smoothly, which makes it more difficult to time jumps correctly.

i doubt that a llama would be smart enough to run 50mph just to see some colour. but then again i doubted that turtles and geeks would allow you to shoot them out of cannons. :P

Addition of max speed breaks the challenge model for this game type, the game sporadically misses button pushes, and wall climb is dodgy as hell. All in all, canabalt did it better, and dinorun did a better job of adding rpg elements (and added a hell of a lot more, I might add). This is slapdash implementation that adds nothing to the genre.

Great game, but the hit detection is terrible. Sometimes I'll fall down a hole when I clearly got to the other side, and I'll see myself jump over a bush but the llama still loses speed. 4/5 just for this.

TIPS:
Save your skill points. Once you have 20, learn double jump. This will really help in jumping gaps even when you are slowed. From there, you can either learn Run Through, Jump, or Wall Climb.
Speed and Acceleration isn't really necessary at the start since you can pick up speed on the long run. + to keep this comment alive.

after finding out i had an enourmous ammount of skill points to waste the game became too easy
4/5 increase. does this game means that when llamas stop they see pitch black?

Kazookazoo, that's not key misdetection. That is your llama sliding on the ice. You notice those white/blue (depending on speed) patches on the ground? That is ice, and you cannot jump while skidding on them. Also, you may have the IE sticky keys problem. If so, then go get Chrome/Firefox/Opera/whatever.

This game is simply awful. What are you supposed to do about shrubs on ice? How about when they are next to the cliff? If you ever hit one shrub, restart. This is fun how? I could imagine if you started at a decent pace there may be something to it, but that mode is locked from the get go so why should I play through the miserable crap to get to unlock what only has a chance of being a decent game?

yup, unless you fix some of the jump heights and distances it's not worth more than a 3/5. The game is awesome but some gaps are unjumpable and common at start

got 2 bushes conected and a big gap in front, unless you are lucky enough to never ger snow followed by bush, snow followed by a cliff or bushes right after/before a jump, you wo't get to the end, i got all of this on my first 50 times, let's see next..... (yeah, i always jump at the end of the platform, i delay it and sometimes i can't reach the other side of the jump at start)

You get 241 skill points for running 12090 feet. o-o
The words for that are a bit hard to read. The letters get pixely.

First I was like: ":D! This is going to be my new record! Woo!"
Giant pop-up filling the screen:
*Congratulations, you earned achievement: "Traveller"*
Then I was like "D:! This game suxz omg"

At first, I thought it was a problem with my keyboard. Then I realized that when the llama is on ice, you can't jump.

The hitboxes on the shrubs are awful.
Pretty fun game anyway, though. Simple with enough of a hook to keep you playing.
