System Down! Try to escape the facility while you're malfunctioning. You'll break down every few seconds, and have to adjust yourself to new controls, displayed in the bottom left of the screen. What's your high score?

  • Procedural level generation
  • Team made music!
  • Timer and high score keeper

Instructions:

Move the character to avoid the metal grates using the controls shown in the bottom left hand corner. When the screen shakes, the controls change.

Tips:

  • The controls are not randomized, they're patterns. You can keep your hand in the same shape as WASD and move it to the next set of controls based on the top letter.
  • You cannot die by touching the back wall, try to press against it to give yourself the most time possible.
  • Your limbs don't interact with obstacles, only your body and head do.
  • There is no end and the game gets harder overtime by increasing control sensitivity. Aim for a high score!

I really hate the games where the controls are changing, your game seems simple but I like the music and art.
