Counting down to 0 with hitboxes! Players dodge numbers to get to zero and only counting downward ... well, counts. Guess which button you have to push! ;)

Very fun. Love the minimalist visuals and retro sounds. I also love how squishy the square is. Maybe could have used an animation for getting it wrong vs right. Also the hit box of the square decision is a bit behind the player so if you let go too early it will still block the number anyway. Great little game though!

Great job on the sounds and mechanics! It really feels like an 80's handheld puzzle-game.

Nice concept, nice style. It feels like the game lacks development in the speed of numbers (the random speed feels weird) and a punishment mechanism if you don't pass a number lower than the current one

Yeah, a punishment for sending the wrong number will probably be good, I'm especially considering it once I rework the number speed/instancing. When I was trying it initially it felt really punishing with how fast the numbers could come randomly.

Thanks so much for playing and for your suggestion!

I like the simplicity of the artwork for this game but the background music could be little bit louder

Developer

Haha, thanks! <3 And weirdly no matter how high i crank the music, it never seems to be enough! :P Maybe I'll try a different song next time! Thanks so much for playing and your kind words!

creative game but is a bit boring the consept and sometimes the number comes very slowly my attention span isnt ready for that

Developer(+1)

Thanks for taking the time to give it a try! <3 I do agree, I could fiddle  with the number speed a bit more too!
