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.
Fun and simple, but even int he windows version the audio was a little irritating.
The Audio is very high, kinda painful, but overall the game is very nice, very fun to play! Congratulations!
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!
This game is fun to play and fits the theme very well. Overall great.
This is pretty cool, get's pretty tricky after a bit. I like the grid layout.
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.
Nice little game. The audio is really terrible, it made my brain explode hahaha. Great job anyways!
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
Got to have quick reflexes in this one. I made it up to level 3.
Ooohh, addicting! Very nice, love the music! Much fun to be had here.
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.
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!

TEAMS: Teams entering the Jam should pick a single representative to submit your game, or create a team specific account you can share. We currently do not support Team Voting, but sharing an account and together playing and rating games is acceptable.
NOT LOGGED IN?: If you get a message about not being logged in, even though you are, it’s because your web browser cached the non-logged in page. You can fix this by either refreshing your cache or clearing your cache. CTRL+F5 in many browsers. Chrome is a bit more work. Press F12 to enable Developer Mode, then you can right click on the refresh button and select “Empty Cache and Hard Reload”. This option is unavailable if you are not in Developer Mode.
PORTS: Ports to other platforms can be done after the deadline. That said, the sooner you finish your port, the sooner people can play your game, improving your chances of placing in the final results. For best results, provide a Web version of your game, or a Windows version with no dependencies. Also be sure to rate about 20 games to improve your visibility.
MY GAME DOESN’T SHOW UP: If you can’t find your game, it’s usually because the URL to your downloads are missing ‘http://‘. Fix your URLs (http://mysite.com/mygame.zip) and you will show up.
MY GAME CRASHES, IS UNBEATABLE, OR I MADE A TYPO: We allow you to fix crash or win condition bugs after the deadline (in a sense, like “porting” to support more players). We also allow “typo” bugs. I.e. A true that should have been a false, a word that should have been a different word, very tiny changes that you would have caught if you had more sleep. We leave this open to interpretation, but generally speaking your game should be identical to the game you submitted. No new features, just things you messed up last minute. Typos.
I like that you move on a grid, this makes it much more tactical than other "avoider" gamer
