A simple game where you take your blue orb and try to dodge all of the eggs that fly at you.
This game was created using GameMaker: Professional.
The game currently only has 3 different events that happen. One is normal mode, where you are fairly fast, and there aren't that many eggs. One is when a lot of eggs come at you very quickly. The third is when you go half your speed. I was working on adding a different type of egg that didn't go in a straight line, but ran out of time to get it working.
Use the arrow keys to move. You can press the escape key to pause the game, and the spacebar will start a new game if you get egged.
Now, to be honest, I only spent about 10 hours on the game total. I am in college, and I had a bunch of other stuff to do this weekend. Sorry if it doesn't seem like too much work went into it.
I'm not sure about changing the speed of the player during the game, though. Well, it's interesting, really, but not like this. Maybe it could be cool to something apearing on the screen, like Bonus pills that makes you go faster, and also the reverse? Would make that mechanic way more interesting I think! What you think? :)
Anyway it's quite good for something made really quickly (I'm in college too right now, I know what it is :p ), I hope you learned a lot and enjoyed it :)
Constructive feedback: IMHO, it would be better if the game could inform what the current event (as in half speed, faster or more eggs) is. This would give a few seconds for the player to prepare itself.
Also, I thought the score counter did not work properly. A high score feature would also be cool.

Other than this, nice job! :D
