Description

The world behind you is being torn apart by a black hole. You must run forward to stay alive but evil red cubes are blocking the way! Shoot as many cubes as you can before you reach the end of the world.

*Gameplay*

Run forward and jump from platform to platform while shooting the red cubes. Your gun has a heat meter on the right. If the gun overheats you won't be able to shoot for several seconds. Your life bar is on the left. Three hits from a red cube and you're dead! Falling into the black hole will also kill you, of course.

Cosmic Run is primarily a score attack game. The longer you survive and the more cubes you shoot down the higher your score. Race for high scores and low scores. The high score is what you would expect. The low score is the lowest score you can get while still finishing the game (i.e. touching the goal at the end).

*Scoring*

Every second you stay alive = 10,000 points
Every red cube destroyed = 100,000 points
Touching the goal at the end = 1,000,000 points

*Background*

Cosmic Run was created for the 7DFPS challenge over about 4 days. I've added a few things on top of the final 7DFPS version: music, the low score, the goal at the end, and, of course, Kongregate leaderboards.

How to Play

WASD: move
Mouse: aim
Left click: shoot
Space: jump
R: restart (die)
M: toggle music

I've never competed for a low score so much.

I think this is the first time I've ever cared about a high score.

Instead of the score going higher as you survive, make it so the score lowers from a set amount on each level. I'm all about my scores and I was encouraged to stick around at the end just to wait for the black hole to catch up.

If you have extra time at the end you missed some opportunities to shoot more cubes. :) I don't want to replace the current scoring system but I do like the idea of adding more game modes with different scoring. (BTW, very nice scores!)
