Not sure if it's the browser or the game but sometimes clicks and taps don't register. Love the themes though! One other issue is since you can't seem to jump during a power up if an obstacle comes right as the powerup ends you'll lose with no way to avoid.

#72Good lord, y'all are crotchety. This just seems like a fun little time waster that was probably developed internally by a very small group of people. I don't see it as a large marketing push or some kind of fancy technical demo. Just something... fun.
For real, anyone remember flappy bird? This is pretty similar and flapper bird made a LOT of people happy.
Dong Nguyen, the creater of Flappy Bird thinks different about this topic - this is also the reason why he took the game down for the app stores:
'"Flappy Bird was designed to play in a few minutes when you are relaxed," the developer said "But it happened to become an addictive product. I think it has become a problem. To solve that problem, it’s best to take down Flappy Bird. It’s gone forever."'

#74Netflix IPs would make some great worlds for larger games, actually. I can imagine a Telltale-style narrative adventure set in the Womens Prison of 'Orange is the New Black' or an action horror game where you play as Eleven, trapped in the Upside Down. Even their animated properties - Knights of Sidonia, Ajin, and Voltron - would be awesome worlds for players to experience. Netflix, if you're reading, hit up the game…

What about this game possibly leads you to think that they're launching a gameflix? It's all know characters from known netflix properties. After you die it links you to the show. I think you're seeing something that isn't there.

#77Okay, perhaps I'm out of the loop. Is this created for marketing purposes, technical purposes, or something else? What makes this different from a random Ludum Dare-style submission, other than the Netflix logo?
Marco Polo - from Marco Polo series The female - from Organge is new Apple Pablo - from some drug related tv series. (is he the math teacher who makes crack ?)

I think besides the logo the characters that run are related to Netflix show. It struck me only after I read your comment. Marco Polo - from Marco Polo series The female - from Organge is new Apple Pablo - from some drug related tv series. (is he the math teacher who makes crack ?)
