    Intro
    Hey guys, I got tasked to design and develop an endless runner as part of my web dev course together with a class mate and decided to share my progress with you guys. This project thread is to push myself so I can keep working on this project without slacking off. The project will be developed in Phaser.js (using ES6). All assets that you'll see are created for this project (graphics, animations, etc). Note: I'm not posting this in Web Development as this has nothing to do with websites.

    Game description
    "Overgrown" in an endless runner set in a dystopian, overgrown world. The player has the only option to jump, which introduced a pretty fun feature. The player has to jump from rooftop to rooftop while avoiding obstacles. The player is constantly accelerating until the max speed is achieved. When a player hits an obstacle, he will lose his speed and might to make the next jump. Jumps must be perfectly timed as well. You can see it as a Canabalt clone or w/e (before I get called out on the concept).

    Thread will be updated shortly with media and what not.

    How's phaser working out for you?
    I've started on an endless runner too, only just scrapped the original custom framework and started to use ImpactJS (got a free license so why not)
