Routine by nitram_cero
It's a game about trying to escape routine and dodge responsabilities in order to find and define yourself.
You must swim into space, away from your numb room.
Your body must avoid your mind, and both must avoid obstacles.
ARROWS or WASD to move the player. SPACE to tug on the player's head/brain.
It can be a bit frustrating at first, but it's a short game, easy to grasp mechanics and winnable in a bunch of tries.
Thanks for playing!!

----------- Development ----------
The world is procedurally generated, but it's always the same. It can be won (at around distance 3000).
Tools/SDK used: Flixel 2.34, GraphicsGale, Audacity, FlashDevelop, Flex 4.0.0.14159
The (lame) "music" was recorded hitting the notebook and desktop with my hands for the beats, and with a Yamaha PSR-200 crappy keyboard. Grunts are me grunting. Clinks are a lighter hitting an ashtray.
Everything recorded with the notebook's internal microphone recorded and tweaked with audacity.
----------- Foods & drinks ----------
Day 1
Drinks: 2 liters of beer, Fernet w/Coke, Mate
Foods: Caprese-flavoured baked bread snacks, sauted beans w/paprika, instant pea soup, crackers w/cream cheese.
Day 2
Drinks: Mate, Coke, Ginger Lemonade w/crushed ice.
Foods: Quinoa w/tomatoes.

maxx, I thought of that: least time scores (my best time was 10.22 seconds). Also an "infinite" mode (score = most distance) once you beat it normally.
Maybe after the competition... :)
It can be a little hard to control at times which can make it pretty unpredictable and more random than it's actually about being good.
bach: trying to define yourself is hard and unpredictable, hehe :)
