PLEASE READ!!!

There are no instructions in-game, so read this!

W-A-S-D keys - move triangle.
SPACE - Use blast weapon (1 per game).
SHIFT - High quality.
ALT - Low quality.

Life support prevents your pulse from dropping below 35. It turns off after you start playing for a bit.

Hit the objects to increase your pulse. If you miss them your pulse will decrease. If your pulse gets to 200, you get to the next level. If it drops to 0, you lose.

Acclumiate 2,000 hits (game over does not reset this number) to open up the credits, and, following tradition, a funny sound file is included.

I'd imagine this game would improve your hand-eye coordination. Everything is created through Actionscript. There is nothing on the stage at all and the only things in the movie's library are the sounds.

This game isn't anything big, so if you play it for at least two minutes I have accomplished my goal.

Don't forget to check out my other game, THE DEFENDER. And please give me suggestions on what to make next!

I actually really liked this. In essence, it's a rhythm game with no music, which actually isn't as much of a problem as you think. The cursor having center as a default position can make for a challenging experience, so the metronome esque beat helps you to keep pack

Well this was a nice space sci/fi game but was still different I like the simplistic element of design here and nice sound F/X, anyways keep up the good game making its a pleasure.

I think that this is a fun and interesting rhythm game you got here, but the whole life support thing was a unnecessary theme to it.

It's simplicity both in control and visuals improved the overall feel to it. The only problem I had with the game generally was that missing one demolished your pulse making you lose after missing like 2 or 3, which is brutal.

I think its...

boring.

Interesting, but limited.

It's an interesting game, and the simplistic visuals do lend it a certain charm.

I never knew2 you could make visuals using action-script - I'll have to try that.

As it is, the s/x buttons are pretty useless. Also, it would have been nicer if we'd been able to use the arrow keys, as we do in the menu.

If this game had a high-score table, I'm sure a lot of folk would enjoy playing it for a fair while. That'd definitely make it a better game imo.

Good stuff!
