Game Graphics Tutorial/Learning Curve
- This game looks quite nice, everything animates well, and I like the colours used
- I feel this game shouldn't immediately start the player in danger but have some tutorial to teach us the basic controls and what are typical dangers that we should avoid
- This isn't my kind of game because "endless runner" means I could be spending way more time on this game when I'd like to do other activities. For busy people, I recommend breaking up this game into smaller (for example 5 minute) segments and allow the player to save their progress so if they want to achieve record breaking high scores, this game would be more friendly for us and each new segment just adds to our "last completed time"

Game Graphics Tutorial/Learning Curve
I really love the graphics, but I feel like the first obstacles should not immediately kill the player. It would help to either give a second chance or at least provide the same obstacles consistently so that the player can learn how to avoid them.
Additionally, I'd say that the "jiggle" of a screen makes me uncomfortable to follow the scene with my eyes. If I understand it right, the point of it is to accompany the swim motion of the character, but it is just too hard on the eyes of the player in my opinion.

Great game!

Game Graphics Tutorial/Learning Curve
Looks great visually! Needs a gentler introduction though - it starts off too difficult for me. Perhaps start it off at a slower pace to give the player a chance to react to the enemy attacks. The later game has potential - you just need to tweak the learning curve so that fewer players give up early on. It'd be a shame if you lost a large audience in the first few seconds that might have enjoyed the game as it progressed.

Wow, Run Billy Run, another endless runner game? How original. And I'm supposed to be excited about playing as a "cute water creature"? Sorry, but I think I'll pass. But hey, at least they're a small team of two people based in Portugal. I'm sure that's supposed to make me feel some sort of sympathy for them. And if I really want to support the development of this game, I can buy them a coffee on Ko-Fi. Because that's what this world needs, more endless runner games and more caffeine-fueled game developers. And let's not forget the helpful tips and tricks. Avoid the orange sign power up because it makes the scene darker? Wow, that sounds like a thrilling gameplay mechanic. And don't forget to buy health, speed, and luck upgrades to make the game slightly less terrible. I think I'll stick to playing games that are actually entertaining.
