Not rated yet. The idea looks interesting but couldn't get movement more than a 1 or 2 'squares' from starting positions... looks like a bug. Chrome/W8.

well. that was a game. theres really nothing to this, and the collision detection is very broken. pink player has the easiest time with it. no relation to theme. very boring.

@torcado194 I understand. Rate it however you like. There's plenty of better games to experience this Ludum Dare. I didn't really have time to finish, and probably shouldn't have entered this game. I'm trying to fix the broken collisions right now.
As for the issue described by mrexcessive, I don't think it has so much to do with Chrome, it's probably just the broken collisions when playing as Player 2.
Sorry for this. I'll make a better game next time. This isn't my first time making a game, but it is my first time using pure Javascript and no engine.
