Series of tubes by 2kah

[raw]
made by 2kah for LD28 (COMPO)
Avoid the 0s, use 'A' and 'D' or left and right arrow keys to move.

For the smoothest experience use Chrome.
May also work in Firefox, though there seem to be some transient bugs.
Doesn't work in IE.

I've fixed a bug where the game would sometimes get very hard very quickly.

My personal record is 66 seconds, let me know if you beat it :)

Something strange, a bug perhaps? I played in firefox, and would frequently die for no reason. I never "collided" with any zeros, but the game seemed to think I did.

Awesome! Really nice take on the theme :D It gets difficult so fast, still addicting!

I got the same problem as arrogant.gamer. Good idea though.

The very fact that this whole premise was a pun based on the theme, made me like this game from the get-go!

Simple graphics, simple gameplay, no audio, but its success lies in its simplicity. Overall it fits the theme and is fun to play, and what more can you ask for? Good submission! :D

Perhaps i'm having the same problem as those above. If i'm close to some 0 i die even though i don't touch them.
other than that, well made game & fun to.

Fun to play, the precise, column-based movement let me feel quite confident in some really close situations while still being challenging.

Pretty simple yet really addictive. I liked the graphical style a lot (the stream of moving green 0s reminds me of The Matrix).

If Dwarf Fortress ever changed direction towards an action game I imagine it could be just like this ;) Simple game but fun for a while. Well done!
