How does your game fit the theme?
You can't directly control the player, but he's scared of your cursor. Moving the cursor near the player causes him to move away, and clicking the left mouse button near him causes him to jump. This allows you to guide the player away from obstacles despite him being out of control.

I like the simple art style. The game is maybe a little too hard. I think the idea that the player is scared of my cursor is great. Well done :)

Wow this is really hard... But also a great interpetation of the theme. Super simple game but still fun!

Developer

Yeah, I always have the problem of being too used to my games to notice how difficult they are... but I'm glad you found it fun regardless!

The core concept is really cool, but the controls are frustratingly difficult. The score tracker (distance meter) is also bugged.

Developer

Thanks for the feedback! I'm too used to the controls to notice but I'm sure they could definitely use some adjustments. Having other people playtest besides me during development would probably help with that in the future!

What an original mechanic, love it! Sad the web version got messed up, but I guess it just makes it even more "out of control" eh?

Thanks! I definitely wish I could've added more but I'm glad you liked it! And yeah, "Out of Control" is a perfect description of the past 48 hours...
