Hello fellow developers, let me introduce one of my first project that I actually finished. It was a pretty hard way if to consider in the past, I was electrical engineer and all my game dev experience was map generation in Heroes of might and Magic .
About game:
Deadline runner is an endless arcade 2D game where your main task is to hold as long as possible. Collect crystals, avoid obstacles and you will hit the Top! Steampunk style and platform switching make this game look different from other similar games. Also, there is “family tree” which basically is level system that provides unique abilities with every unlocked ancestor.

Good job on having different animations for each character. Some games you see a lot of different character skins but they all use the same animation set - so it’s just window dressing.

Thank you my friend, your words like a pill for my soul) I am 100% agree with you that’s why I’m trying to make all characters unique even in runner game
Great to hear that you like it, I hope you won’t get disappointed
For the past few weeks I did some work and updated both performance and content a word about performance, according to profile I had 2 major problems one was connected with textures and second with particles both were influencing mobile performance greatly. As I’m waiting for the 5.4 Unity release (were particles should be more optimized) I majorly decreased particles “quality” so they won’t impact gameplay so much. Second problem was fixed after turning off 32 bit buffer. Now I have smooth 60 fps even on low end devices.
Now about content I’ve added new character called “Elven Queen” below is some animations and screenshots, I had some criticism about her boobs animation that this is sexism but come on she is tiny on the screen…
