Changelog

1.0:

  • Initial release

1.1:

  • Fixed a bug where if you died shortly after collecting gold it would count towards the next game's score.
  • Added the option to skip the start game cutscene.
  • Harder levels are added to the level pool after surviving for 1 minute, rather than 2 minutes, increasing level variety sooner.
  • Player can now push the scroll rate when they encroach the top of the play area.
  • Scrolling speed now increases at twice the previous rate, maxing out once the player has survived 8 minutes.
