Do you love to be frustrated? Good good, then this game will suit you perfectly...
This is your typical dodge-everything game, but with a slight twist, tying in with the two-button theme: your input scheme changes based on an XOR binary encryption that changes at increasing intervals. Sounds painful? Yes, yes it is. A truth table of inputs and corresponding direction outputs can be found at the link below, but I find the game is much more challenging without it.

Made in Lua + LOVE2D, code is far from polished as this was my first true project in Lua. Going to go back to C++ next time around, more familiar with my engine there, but this was a fun experiment regardless. Oh well, lessons learned, maybe the masochists out there enjoy this monstrosity anyway.
Also, use 'a' and 'd' to navigate the menus and for, well, everything really.

15 seconds is the longest I survived..for now. Anyway, maybe you could put a little readme or something because the controls were weird for me at first.
It is very Brain-intensive, but it's kind of fun!
