What a fun little game!

Simple, but the fact that moving is a toggle is a unique spin on it.

pres2300 2026-04-21 04:27

Classic and simple! Well done!

Good interpretation, well executed. Good job.

It's a game!

It's a game, it's understandable, and it uses the theme correctly! Quite impressive in 3 hours.

I got very close to the finish line, but there is this very unforgiving duration for the yellow light that got me every time...

Nice work :D

@rolly Yes youre right, I was tinkering with these values but found when I increased the times too much then it was very easy to get to the end but I do agree, it would have benefited to increase the lower limit of the yellow light to be a bit less rage inducing.

It's a simple game, straight to the point. I like it. Good work!

matt-swieboda 2026-04-23 22:38

wow, surprisingly addicting! that super fast yellow/red really messed me up, i had to skip it to win

@matt-swieboda Thanks for playing till the end. I just realized after you mentioning this that the seed needs to be randomized to be truly random.

matt-swieboda 2026-04-24 06:10

@beats yes, that would help, cuz i knew when it was coming on restart. to be honest though, if i didn't know, and it was true random, that specific segment is a tiny bit too fast.

Spectacular amount of tension for such simple rules, well done.

I failed several times before realizing that it was always the same timing. Once I figured that out, it became a game of patience and memory, where you really had to force yourself not to give in to greed, even at the finish line. It reminded me a bit of those boss fights in Dark Souls where, just when you’re on the verge of victory, you get tempted to end it quickly and die a miserable death... Well done :)

@nombrillus Thanks I was going for souls like when I made the game lol, yeah need to randomize the seed to be truly random.

Cool simple game, did get annoyed at the amount of times I failed but itwas fun no the less. GG!

graymansion 2026-05-01 10:29

Nice simple game. My record is 14 seconds

gecko64 2026-05-01 12:02

Fun simple game, good job!

beats 2026-05-01 12:17

@graymansion Thats impressive, how did you manage this?

joegreen 2026-05-01 17:24

All that is simple is ingenious, and all that is ingenious is simple

marcus-otterstrom 2026-05-02 00:50

Great, simple, and pretty challenging! It seems like the speed is dependent on FPS or refresh rate or something, weirdly when I play it on one of my monitors I move twice as fast compared to the other monitor :stuck_out_tongue: I can get 12 seconds on one but 20 seconds on the other.

Very good scope for a game jam.

Nice speed run for LD :D
