I got 6s in the first try :)
Nice take on the theme! I wouldn't mind a few more levels though :)

Great use of theme, nice little game, and I really enjoyed the different distractions that you had :P I featured it in my comilation video of Ludum Dare 27 Games, if you wanna check it out http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=y1UJ96l2scE

Woah, that was hard ^^ I couldn't think about math and count that at the same time.

Very interesting premise, but its not working properly in chrome. No arkanoid, no anything. Except the last math question, its working.

I liked the simple but fresh take on the theme.

I don't know what it means but I got a 7.1s overall error. Would love to have more explanation at the end.

The concept is very good I would love to see more distracting games like a lot of counters on the page which have wrong time speed :)

That was pretty interesting. Maybe you should've added something like a metronome because it was way too easy

I am embarrassingly bad at maths :/
Neat little idea, felt like a Psychology test. I'd like to see more rounds in the more 'gamey' style like the second, third and fourth rounds.
Perhaps I'm just really silly, but I must admit in the first round I thought that it started counting down from 13 was the 'distraction'.
Good little idea with nice, clear presentation
(I had no problems running the game in Chrome)

This was really cool. :)
simple case -1.9 s.
arkanoid -0.2 s.
evading -0.1 s.
catching the boxes -0.5 s
math -1.3 s.
Got total of error value 4s. I can't believe I got the worst on simple case, haha.

-4.5, 2.0, -1.7, -0.2, -0.7 --> 8.7
needed some time to figure out the first three seconds were real. I've seen some more of these games, but this one is the best as it has other mini games in it :D
