HayHo guys,
first I have to say that it was a hard theme.
I really didn't know what I should make.

But here is my game:

Break Out!

Story:
You are a guy in prison and want to escape. The only thing you need is a special key. You have 120 seconds to get this key. Otherwise the police will come to you. The problem: "You Only Get One" keyboard key. These key will change every 3-6 seconds.

Controls:
Depending on what a key you get.

The possibilities are:

Left Arrow - Go left.
Right Arrow - Go right.
Up Arrow - Jump.

I hope you'll have fun :D

Interesting concept but I found more frustrating not being able to do what I wanted to do. A good potential idea to think about though!

Interesting indeed. I'd really like to see a larger game with this design. I think it would make for very cool moments.

Really interesting concept. Strangely it reminds me of Glitch Tank. I'd like to see something similar in topdown perspective with the guards patrolling.

Looks interesting, but not being able to do what I wanted made the experience worse in such case, not better.

Unique concept, and you get high marks on the theme category, but I think the player experience suffered. I played through twice, and there was no possible way for me to win either.

Nice take on the theme but frustrating if you get UP only once and the keys never came down to layer one. You may should change the action selection to some pseudo random decision.
