"Oh, I didn't see you there, crushing my path for survival and my dreams of becoming a famous paleontologist.
Do you know how hard it was to find this egg? And how lucky I am that these debris are falling in such a coincidental position that I can climb some of them? It's like someone is throwing them with exact precision. But I don't have time to think about it, actually I can't do much more than panic and run around, waiting for more debris to fall."
We're Make A Game and Eggscape is our entry for Ludum Dare 21's Jam.
This wasn't just our first time competing at Ludum Dare, it was our first time working with flash!

How To Play
---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
You don't control the character, you control the falling debris.
He can only climb the height of one block.
He also doesn't climb down.
And if he gets eaten, it's game over, man.
LEFT and RIGHT to move
UP to rotate
DOWN to place
ESC or P to pause
---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
UPDATE #2
Forgot to add a Read Me.txt file to the zip file.
UPDATE #1
Oh hey, working scores! :D
---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Things to add post submission:
- Treasures!
- More modes!
- Gameplay Tweaks!
- Fix Character random suicidal behavior! (especially with line piece)
- And many more!
Please read the Read Me.txt file in the zip version for more info.

It wasn't obvious at first why the pieces sometimes disappeared.
@bmfs:
You mean if you hit the character with a piece? Yeah, that will probably change in the future.
@refrag:
We should have posted the How To Play text here too before.
Yeah, we didn't have time to include multiple game modes and treasures.
Treasures would change the way you play it, if you were playing for the best score, you'd have to place the pieces in order to be at the treasure height and catch it.
Besides that, some of stuff isn't working like we planned to. Still, we're glad the fun factor is still present. :)
