To kill the boss try to hit the ball with the edge of your block, always on the side on which it has velocity, so it will keep increasing. The boss speed is limited and you should be able to beat it after 1 or 2 good hits.

The real challange is fighting the controls! The keys stick A LOT and I often move left or right without pushing a single key.

needs more variety with the music.
because the same loop over and over again can get boring.
the game itself is neat though.

Clever idea I guess but still a pretty boring game. Still far too much 'randomness' to it so even if you play good you can die very easily. 3/5.

Fun game, and a nice twist on a simple concept. I believe you could add some more spice to the game by allowing you to switch the box into a "vertical" position to make dodging some blocks easier and more challenging at the same time. Still fun to play, though, and rather addicting. 4/5

Quinn's Review: Distopix is a lot of fun. I like a bit of the old dodge the box routine, but 'routine' is the operative word, as it's churned out as an early flash tutorial by most game designers. Here, though, the concept is given a very slight tweak which makes the game very entertaining: the screen deforms as you play. Sounds simple, but it makes the gameplay very engaging. I especially love the style that's been used here - it looks like a dodgy '80s new wave video clip which, combined with the cool music, makes this perfect for when you're in a party mood. The end boss is also a hoot. This game is all-'round solid fun. I hope that in the sequel the developer retains the dodgy look, but expands the number of deformations, and the variety or direction of falling blocks. A nice, simple tweak to a well known concept, nicely executed.
