Use WSAD/arrow keys to control. Enemies slow you down. Use potions (items found on floor) to speed up (use buttons 1 or 2). You have 10 seconds for each level.

DerpElf!

You can only walk on the brownish tiles, and sometimes it's not as precise as I'd want it to be, so you may get stuck. Complete the levels by getting to one of the sides, there are 10 levels for success (and while I did play it a whole lot, I don't think it's hard, at least once you work out the quirks of moving).

I can't move most of the time. I'm not sure if it's because the enemy is touching me.

I should probably have mentioned that you can only move on the brown paths. The enemies slow you down, as well, which is detrimental. Pick up some potion-thingamagings and hit 1 or 2 to use 'em (they restore your speed to the orig. value)

Thanks for joining the compo! Good luck to you.

It's fun but there's some collision bugs. Even when I'm on the brown path, I can't move sometimes.

Wasn't a bad idea but due to weird collisions I couldn't get to the Ocarina *ehm* Banana of Time in time >_< Fun nonetheless :)

I really like the backgrounds here. Very charming!

Interesting idea, but I always found myself stuck while moving through the grass.

The same for me, I can't move half of the time, which is a bit frustrating.
Also, it would be nicer on a largest screen (think about old people :)

The moving is horribly buggy, I can't move across the N-E curves at all.

Also, the score display below is cut off?

I can't score fairly since I'm not able to play properly.

It was really hard to move, I had to start over a few times to move the character and then I got caught. Love the title though!

Like you pointed out game is a bit rough around the edges but the idea looks pretty solid. Reminds me of pacman a little bit but with the enemies kind of kiteable as they dont have to follow paths. Would be good to see what this had been like with more time.
