10 Seconds by phi

[raw]
made by phi for LD27 (COMPO)
[ARROW KEYS] : move the green square
[ESCAPE] : back to menu

[GOAL] : stay alive for 10 seconds (as accurately as possible) in every game
[SCORE] : abs(10-time); lower number = better score

You get 10 random games, your final score is the average of all scores.

I originally wanted to add more games, but I ran out of ideas.

Have fun playing, I sure had fun making it!

That worked, this was really cool, trying to count your own time while playing is reeeaally fucking hard :D

Hello ! I managed to go outside the screen in the level where you start in the middle and that rectangle start's to follow you . I don't know if it was intended or not !

@guardiancs: I don't think that's a problem, you still have to back to kill yourself. So yes, I guess you could call it "intended".

Works for me too, good idea to have many mini games, and have them all respect the 10 seconds time :)

Combining "count to 10" with classic timing games is quite a cool idea, making the game surprisingly fun ! The minimalistic-creepy-atmosphere is rather good as well. Good job !

A timer would have been nice, but may have made the game too easy, I dunno. As it stands, still a very good entry.

Love the mood that's coming over with the sound.

And having to time the death is a neat idea. Albeit quite hard :)

At last I open it. Great game! I like it. But, theme wasn't opened.

Nice little game. Played the game a couple of times thinking that the goal was to outlive each level. When I managed to stay alive for almost a minute in one of the easier levels I had to consult the help section, where I finally understood that you needed to die as close to the 10-second mark as possible.

Some levels are very difficult to survive even a few seconds and some levels are really easy to survive for a very long time.

And the final score could have been presented in a way that you more easily could relate to. Right now it's only a number (7,392141). Difficult to relate to.

So in short: I liked it, but should communicate the rules and score a bit better.

Website didn't work for me, either, that dropbox one did the trick though. Nice work! Very nice shaders. Average sounds. I really enjoyed the "randomness" of levels. I knew how to play each level, but I didn't know the order. Good work! 8/10.
