How to Play

Stay alive as long as possible. Blue circle is you at the bottom. Orange / purple triangles are cartoon hazards (abstract blocks) falling from the top. 1 hit = run ends. Non-violent, no blood, pure dodging.

Score = survival time. +0.1s every 100ms alive.
Dodged = hazards that leave screen safely.
Every 8 seconds you level up: faster fall + tighter spawn (180ms min).
Hazards have 5 fun colors, random size 16–30, wiggle for chaos.
Near-miss sparkle = you almost touched — stylistic only.
