Well, you did say it would make me mad.

I liked the music and it looks pretty polished... well, the first little bit that I saw... over, and over, and over again!

This was charming :) I like the cheesy pitched-down voices -- very '90s! I didn't really understand when i was controlling the square size but other than that it plays fine. Good work on this.

Intersting concept, however the random generation can screw you over by putting two obstcles that extend past eachother, making it impossible to dodge no matter what your size is.

This was really fun! Simple and addicting gameplay. Unfortunately there were parts generated that were impossible to get through.

I don't see the point of changing your size. Since you want to avoid everything, is there any reason for being larger?

Also, it seems that you're missing the "A" and "D" keys under the "Control Square With" in the instructions screen.

The graphics were simple, but clean, and the music was good.

Nice game, but it's always pretty easy until you randomly get an impossible obstacle.

Yeah, per sathorn and the others, this is a prime candidate for a Post Compo version. I'd think some kind of width addition check in pairs should work.

And I just rolled my critter to very small and left it that wsy. I didn't see any incentive to get bigger.

Good game! Beautiful music. Interesting gameplay. But sometimes it becomes impossible to play because of the very narrow holes.

Fun game but I didn't really enjoy the music, but that's just my taste.

I liked the overall style of this, but like others didn't really understand why I would wanna be anything but the smallest thing possible xD

When I died it was because two obstacles were ramming into each other and there was no way to get through :(

Game was pretty good, good luck!
