Thanks for the heads up. It may also be a bug where the blue circle was randomly positioned outside the bounds, so refreshing should fix that one. Also, if the music isn't working for you, just download the source and open index.html. Thanks for the comments guys!"},{"author_name":"Spotline","author_uid":"11703","time":"Aug 26, 2013 @ 9:07am","epoch":1377507720,"text":"Very cool !

You can move the blue circle by aiming the mouse cursor.\r\n\r\nThe red circle moves slowly, until it gets a clear line of sight to you. If this happens, the only way out is to hide on or behind a black safe area, or pick up green power ups for a temporary speed boost. You start off with ten seconds which is counting down. Picking up a green power up will also add a second to your time limit.\r\n\r\nThe black safe areas are generated randomly on each restart. This was pretty rushed since I scrapped my main game idea and worked on this in 6 hours. You can play it in a browser but if the music is missing or you run into any or trouble, you can download the source and open index.html, which should be more reliable.\r\n\r\nThanks for playing!   :)\r\n","title":"Hide and Seek"}
