One of many cheats: 'Colours'. 'Colors' cheat not recommended in web version. Sounds are better in Windows version.
Edit: Seriously, if you find the sounds harsh, use the Windows version is applicable or turn it down in Options.

I like that you move on a grid, this makes it much more tactical than other "avoider" gamer

Fun and minimalistic game indeed. Sounds hurt my ears though.

Andrewves30 Apr 2013, 07:18

I really like this gameplay mechanic, the sound is a little painful tho.

Limited dodging area was interesting. Sound hurt my ears! :) Nice B&W style. I didn't get too far, maybe 40-50 dodges. Would be cool if playfield changed sizes and started larger and got smaller over time, increasing panic.

Brilliant little game! Love the style. I welcome the sounds after playing a bunch of silent games. They're a little harsh, but they remind me of the old beeping computer speakers. Simple gameplay, but challenging in an awesome way.

This is great. I actually really liked the sounds. My best score was only 45 dodges. It would be great if you could add a highscore table.

Surprising addictive

Fun and simple, but even int he windows version the audio was a little irritating.

katsumottojp1 May 2013, 21:28

The Audio is very high, kinda painful, but overall the game is very nice, very fun to play! Congratulations!

Very fun, I love this game.

Jellycakes2 May 2013, 21:04

Really fun! I liked the side stepping option, feels more comfortable as a dodging mechanic. The slightly music 'bullets' was really cool and made it sound like a musical number. Nice work!

loxo2 May 2013, 21:16

This game is fun to play and fits the theme very well. Overall great.

GetFun2 May 2013, 22:40

Hey, very good game. I like it a lot =)

Qaterknan3 May 2013, 12:30

Nice little game. Fun to play, minimalistic for sure.

Ragzouken3 May 2013, 15:14

Pretty effective use a minimalism here :)

ceMelusine3 May 2013, 20:30

Super fun. I really like how intense it gets.

zeelyndz3 May 2013, 20:37

This is pretty cool, get's pretty tricky after a bit. I like the grid layout.

Orni4 May 2013, 19:14

wow, this was a lot of fun - nice game!

well done sir :)

Riccardo Stucchi4 May 2013, 19:26

This game is very addictive! Well done!! Also good rappresentation of the theme. The best score that i achieved so far is 29s with 50 dodge.

Alex Camilleri4 May 2013, 20:52

Nice little game. The audio is really terrible, it made my brain explode hahaha. Great job anyways!

joekinley4 May 2013, 21:55

Whoa I love this game.
I love the two moving modes, I love the overall concept. I even love the sound. Dunno what people say that it hurts their ears. It was really fun and fitting.

Great work with this awesome game. Really well done.
Also 64 Dodges or so

GranaDa4 May 2013, 23:06

Nice one. The sound was ok on FireFox. Good job!

GaTechGrad5 May 2013, 09:57

Got to have quick reflexes in this one. I made it up to level 3.

Somehow I feel, it's a game about a disco dancer. Liked it!

MetroidMan3475 May 2013, 12:32

Ooohh, addicting! Very nice, love the music! Much fun to be had here.

SaintHeiser6 May 2013, 01:17

Cool and minimalistic game idea =)

rujo6 May 2013, 15:06

simple yet perfect idea. challenging game!

h2n06 May 2013, 17:44

Pretty good game fits nicely with the theme :D

brxtr6 May 2013, 17:52

I really like the concept; using a two-dimensional area is a clever way of expanding on the "avoid" style arcade genre. The audio really is horrible, though.

patrickward6 May 2013, 18:56

Nicely done. I thought the minimal playing field was clever. You need quick reflexes for this game though. I made it to 38 after a couple of tries. The sounds are a bit harsh on the web version, but I think it's just the baseline volume. Well done!
