Sometimes pressing a key wouldn't make the character move, not sure if that was my computer or the game. I also agree with the restart button comment, since the mouse isn't really used for anything else. I don't really see how the game fits with the theme without reading into it too much, but it was fun regardless!"},{"author_name":"bvanschooten","author_uid":"14520","time":"May 19, 2014 @ 10:33pm","epoch":1400538480,"text":"This looks like a simple fun game. However, the game moves very slowly, is it supposed to do that?  I ran this in Linux\/Wine. The player also moves too slow to catch more than a couple of zombies with a power pill."}],"images":["ld29\/37259-d9651af3bdc7965fd7352088634b7b79.jpg","ld29\/37259-be0df29773bf022a08c511617e5dab38.jpg","ld29\/37259-c0faf72094f39dc0650c5255788a00c1.jpg"],"links":[{"url":"https:\/\/github.com\/thorrism\/SquareRunner\/archive\/master.zip","text":"Windows"},{"url":"https:\/\/github.com\/thorrism\/SquareRunner\/archive\/master.zip","text":"Linux"}],"metadata":{"g_key":"20042","g_author":"37259","g_event":"LD29","g_eventkey":"22","g_subevent":"JAM","g_urlkey":"20071","g_title":"Square Runner","g_status":"UCHK1","g_place":"99999","g_commentcount":"4","g_site2_node_id":"0","g_hide":"N","g_has_icon":"Y","g_rqueue":"0","g_random":"0"},"nds":[],"node":null,"orig_images":["http:\/\/ludumdare.com\/compo\/wp-content\/compo2\/\/342546\/37259-shot0.jpg-eq-900-500.jpg","http:\/\/ludumdare.com\/compo\/wp-content\/compo2\/\/342546\/37259-shot1.jpg-eq-900-500.jpg","http:\/\/ludumdare.com\/compo\/wp-content\/compo2\/\/342546\/37259-shot2.jpg-eq-900-500.jpg"],"text":"Goal of the game is chase the green square with \"W-A-S-D\" or the arrow keys to move. Once you are moving you will be unable to stop and every green square caught creates a zombie black square. Touching the borders or the black squares results in death. But when a red square appears, it is only available for a short period of time and catching it will allow you to kill the black squares for 6 seconds so be quick, the screen also goes black and zombies are grey.\r\n\r\nMade solo in 55 hours. Pretty simple and fun","title":"Square Runner"}
