Wise
This Game is a submission to the game jam: Mini Jam 75. The theme was wisdom. My message behind this game is that it isn't easy to become wise.
This ball running around chasing the books is you. The book is the knowledge and you need to chase them and work to get the knowledge. There is also always something that will have false information and you should watch out for it. This false information could get you in big trouble and give you long term problems.
The limitation was weight so... I decided to let the books fall freely with their weight. I am not the most creative person but I hope this works.
Use the A and D keys or the arrows to move around.
I really look forward on further developing this game and eventually release it for android. Currently that won't be an option because of school. The game doesn't have all the features I would like it to have but that's for another time.
Enjoy!
Update 1: Blur around edges is less so it looks more just like a glitch effect on the text. The speed gradually increases so it isn't the same speed the whole time so it's more interesting.
Next Update: Adding extra lifes so it gets more interesting. I will also most probably make it available on Android

Nice little game, simple but works. Visuals are simple, as well, but good and nicely compliment the simple gameplay. The music was cool, fits perfectly.
What bothered me though was blurring of the text around edges, actually it was not bad at all during game, or main menu, however when I opened the About section in menu, it really was just too much and my eyes felt uneasy from that.
Also for the gameplay it quickly stalls and feels very monotone, I understand that with the limited amount of time you had for development it was good, however if you want to continue developing the game, thats what I would focus on. It could be enough just to keep sending more and more bad books and fewer good books, or you could gradually increase the speed of the game, or some combination of both, so the game's difficulty increases over time. Currently it felt that I could play for hours without dying, since the game's difficulty didn't progress at all and avoiding bad books was very easy.
You mentioned you want to release the game for Android, and I think that's great idea, the game has very simple controls that would be easy to implement to phone devices.
Thank you many people said the same thing and I will definitely continue on it. I will fix the blurring around the edges.
