You've got to collect jump powerups first! (the green ones.)

Under rating threshold (show) "Oculus Rift and Kinect controls" is the only thing I wanna say about this game.. Oh, and: *a jump button and an Excite Truck/Mirror's Edge feeling when going down, *Air tricks a la SSX, *Near Miss Bonus a la Burnout, *Caves, *Hoops/Turns/Gravity Changes.. and much more. Ask me if you need more ideas XD

We are *definitely* thinking about Oculus Rift support!

Developer response from Flippfly

The final version will have around 20-25 player levels, and at least 2 game modes (plus user-created modes!) We haven't quite worked out which of these features will be in the free version here, but stay tuned!

Under rating threshold (show) I think it should be reset the high score for the item "Max tris in a single round". It is virtually impossible to get 765 tris (or anything close to it). These numbers refer to the time when the game was different, ie, when three tris appeared at a time.

Under rating threshold (show) The score requirement (80k in a single run) at level 2 is completely unreasonable and not at all in line with the other two. Not to mention that once in a while the game will start (and remain) totally sluggish, making the flight leisurely but, with the sun still setting at full speed, totally impossible. Playtest, fix the bugs, right now this very simple avoider is not worth much.

+ - !

Developer response from Flippfly

Hey, thanks for the feedback. We'll have an update out when the standalone game is finished that will address these issues! For the 80k badge: be sure to focus on getting your multiplier up (don't collide with the squids or anything else or it resets!)

Under rating threshold (show) it would be nice if a previous high score satisfied the score criteria for the next level. like i got a score of 175K while completing a level. i then started the next level with a 130K score requirement. several crashes later.... i am writing this message.

Thanks for the feedback! We're working on redoing this system a bit so there's not as much redundancy.

Under rating threshold (show) The smoothest Unity game I've seen. Well Done. Was wondering if at some point we can/do unlock what I would call Wire-frame reversal. Where the obstacles all become wireframes And the Tris/Pickups become solid?

Under rating threshold (show) Woohoo, finally hit 1 million. Just jumping any time I couldn't see a clear line helped so much. There's plenty of opportunities to pick up boosts in the open section, or when you're in the air anyway. No need to take fancy lines at higher speeds.

Developer response from Flippfly

Good advice! Jumps are very useful for safely air-grabbing powerups.

Under rating threshold (show) Just beat my highscore again. Beat it by over 100,000 points this time and I only cleared 6 regions. That multiplier man...that multiplier. My score was 464,420. Message me if you beat it. And give me your score so I can try and beat it. Ok I'll stop flooding the comment section now. :P

Under rating threshold (show) I can last a lot longer with more jumps, because I'm in the air more often, and sometimes while I'm in the air I can spot an easier route to take. Unfortunately while I'm in the air I cannot pick up Tris making it difficult to increase my score. The magnet is nice because It makes it easier to increase my score by pulling the tris towards me. And the magnet not only pulls Tris, but speed as well as jump pickups. With the magnet I can obtain more time. Time that I would have otherwise missed without it, thus making me last longer. However I'm spending more time on the ground where all the danger is. I like the balance between these two perks. It's perfect. :D

Sorry about that! We had to change some things for balance purposes. In the meantime - try to build up your multiplier by collecting lots of Tris and not hitting anything!

Under rating threshold (show) There's a bug that keeps happening to me, where I start the map traveling incredibly slow but the sun moves at the same speed as normal. I have to either kill myself or enter the menu and start the round over a few times to reset it.

Under rating threshold (show) FLIPPFLY, have you tracked down the invisible object bug? I thought it was fixed but then I bumped into it (literally) a few times a couple of days ago. BTW, I didn't think the game got tougher at all. Maybe the terrain is a little more challenging but there seem to be more tris and more pickups which more than makes up for it.

We've fixed it locally - the Kong version will get an update at some point before too long.

Under rating threshold (show) Umbriel, if anything it's easier to get a higher score than ever! Took me weeks of playing each day to get a high score of around 450,000 before, and that was I think over 15 regions. I remembered the game today, came back, and after 15 minutes, on my third try, I have 639,920 in 8 regions, with 149 tris collected and highest multiplier of 13. Multiplier is key to getting a huge score. And this game is even more awesome than before.

Under rating threshold (show) My high score is 236,056. And the new updates make it extremely hard to get a good score. I get around 25 thousand points on average per round. If you're going to make it harder to obtain points, give us gamers the courtesy of balancing the game a bit.

+ - !

Developer response from Flippfly

Hey, thanks for the feedback. We'll have an update that will balance things out a bit. For now - keep in mind that the multiplier is really important to your score, and that this is reset if you collide with anything! We could do a better job of making this clear.

Under rating threshold (show) this game is awesome, but i feel like this game should be multiplayer. not only should you race the sun, but also friends and bots. an maybe you could also do some oceans and mountains not only flat because you feel like you have done it before and then it get old realy quick. but 5/5 for this game keep the good work running :D

Under rating threshold (show) A few good featuers to add would be a water level, and maybe ramps. I had this idea where if the sun sets, and you jump high enough on a ramp, you catch a glimpse of sunlight and it adds energy to keep going a little longer.
