This game was made by Maximinus, a guy from france that i had some contact with and he is really nice. It´s only 80 points and they are well invested.

Your job is really simple at the start - you got a missile shot at you and have to evade it with your jet for 10 seconds. After that you go the next round and two missiles will be shot. This repeats until 20 missiles are shot at you in the last level. Then it´s not that simple anymore. :D

The controls work well - you only use the left stick to navigate your jet. You can choose if you want the jet to directly go into the direction you push or change the control options to make it relative to the jet which limits it to left and right.

It´s really addictive and a lot of fun. This game made me start the whole indienerds thing - because i never heard of the game on any site or forum i visited before. The graphics are simple, but well enough done to have a professionel feeling.

There is a second mode where you have to evade only for 5 seconds before a new missile is launched - this is a lot harder, but if you manage to play through it, it will last only 100 seconds. Never made it that far so far. Still i play it every once in a while because it just doesn´t grow old.

I've been really enjoying some of the indie titles lately. Armlessoctopus is a great site that showcases a few titles a week.
