The fact that it is the same layout over and over and that 2000M is no different than 10,000M really means after that i don't want to play again. 1 enemy that is more or less unable to be dodged, 1 type of coin, one background/level makes this a good beta for starting but a terrible finished product. I recommend looking to other people in your game genre and seeing what they added to their games to help extend the life of the game. Examples for upgrades are (Burrito Bison, Chuck the Sheep, Flight, Learn to Fly) and for a running game look at Flood Runner 3 for diversity

Please let us use the spacebar to jump. Also, the game is convinced I double-jumped whenever the land leans. Please fix.

Only thing that is a problem was that the reaction with a click or a double click would become a glide and screw me over. It might just be me, or maybe not.

The upgrades are way too expensive, especially with the start of the game. It takes 3 solid 2.5k distance runs to even be possible to get one upgrade. The background is way to dull and boring. It sucks that you have to use your fuel to be able to avoid fuel being stolen.

Ugh. Six times through and I just reached 475coins. Either I have suddenly become even more crap at canabalt-ers or the upgrades are way too expensive.
