Update: I think all the medals are working now!

It's not easy being a spike-trap. By design, players are supposed to get by you without TOO much trouble. But you just can't do that. After years of seeing the same guy running by, over and over, day after day -- you realize you're in love. Unfortunately, the only means by which you can express this love is by showing him how good you are at crushing him into a tasty broth. Someday, you're sure, he'll get the hint.
This game was made with the wonderful Flashpunk, which made the nightmare of making this a lot less nightmarish, and more of a restless bad dream.
PROTIPS: Be patient. Wait for the right moment to strike! It takes a second or two to reset yourself, and in that time he can escape! Unless there's a powerup he'll never just run straight through.

Wonderful
An incredible example of narrative mechanics. You only know what the spiketrap knows-- no look inside the brain of the player, no explanation of where you are. You just crush. That's all you can do. I feel like you could have done more with the narrative-- I would love to see those two get together somehow-- but as it stands, it's a shining example of what a simple game can do.

I absolutely suck at this,
but I enjoyed it very much, the simplicity and the funny reactions, the constant "DAMN IT!!!" All worth it. 10 Stars. Loved it.
