Loom 1.2
A Laser-packed game, how long can you survive?
This game was made in two days. If anyone wants to make some good music then please do so, thanks.
You can pause to go to clean mode or enable quick death. Also you can reset your highscore.
My best is 65 seconds. I just updated the game, is it better with the more askew lasers?

28 seconds - quite hard, but fun! I know that I read about that effect, but I don't remember exactly how it works.
(highscore is on the topleft)
this game is super fun! it was really intense when i got far enough into it. this would probably be even more fun with a friend, having each of us try to one-up the other :D
that said, it's kind of annoying how quick death and clean mode reset to "off" every time you lose and want to play again (i don't use the latter, but i do get annoyed by the former turning off)... another small thing is that you can't see how long the first player who died had survived, only the second player's. it'd be cool to compete over having the higher times with friends!
obviously, these are both small problems that don't affect the game that much; regardless of whether you end up dealing with those things or not, this is still great fun!
Congrats getting 63 seconds, im working on a update, with a few new things. I wanted to add the score for both players, but i just couldn't find a visually a good way to show both scores on the end screen. Also I will fix the reseting menustats, but why do you restart the game completly, you just need to wait a bit, then you get send to the main menu anyway
Fun game! I do find that when there are a lot of red lasers going off, it can sometimes be hard to see the dotted circles coming on screen and predict exactly when they're going to go off, so you kind of just need to keep moving. Tap dodging helps when you don't have a lot of space.
90 seconds, thats a achievement, well done!
You can toggle clean-Mode in the pause menu, it clears the screen nicely, removes screenshake and make the circles clear.
@cheesemug i didn't say anything about restarting the cart myself? it just reset the settings to off when it sends me to the menu. (i guess it doesn't really matter since you fixed it anyways)
Ohhhh thats what you meant, thanks for clearing it out. I even made it store the setting when the game is closed and opend again. thanks :)
that's great! i forgot that pico-8 lets you store your options, haha.
you're welcome!
Really cool effects! I like the little highlights when you get close to a beam. Though I didn't manage to stay alive more than 32 seconds... Nice game!
