Interesting story!

Simple but cool gameplay. I'd like a bit more colors and I never got coordinated enough to use the fast keys. Maybe Ctrl could just increase sidemovement instead. Not sure if it would make it easier, but I think so.

nice game! I think you could add more obstacles in the game. Is the source avaiable?

luisoft: I guess I can show it to you if you want to see it, but the code is mostly crap... give me a good reason, and I'll show you And yes, I've been thinking of more obstacles, maybe I'll create another type of "apples" that you can not collide with, I don't know... the problem is how hard they would be to avoid at higher speeds... or so I think. I might try.

Malohkan: Mouse control, huh? I've never thought of that, but it's a good idea. I'll give it a try as soon as I can, a little short of time atm though. Maybe one could even choose control type in the menu. And I agree that it's stupid that it's easier to get point by not moving than by moving at speed 9. I'll... ehm, hmm. Maybe I could increase the start width, or increase the dicrease in width / update.

Thanks, both of you.

EDIT: I added mouse control and an option to change the starting width. Also included more strings, making the jar about 1 kb bigger :/

EDIT: Also added ctrl+arrows to increase speed; doesn't say that in the information, though, I forgot that... might add that later.
