Road-crossing arcade game — dodge cars and trucks across five lanes to reach the far side. Traffic speeds up after every crossing. How many can you survive?
Your character starts at the bottom. Cars and trucks move left or right across the five road lanes between you and the goal at the top.
Swipe up, down, left, or right (or use arrow keys) to move one cell. Touching a car ends the game.
Reaching the top scores 1 point — you restart at the bottom with faster cars.
Goal: as many crossings as you can.
The road has rhythm if you stop and watch it. Each lane of traffic moves at its own steady pace, so before you step forward, wait on the bottom grass and read the gap that is coming rather than the car that is in front of you right now. The players who die are almost always the ones who rush a lane on reflex instead of waiting half a second for the obvious opening.
Only the two grass strips are safe. All five rows in between are road, and a car can hit you in any of them for as long as you stand there, so there is no resting halfway. Do your waiting on the grass, where standing still costs nothing, and step into a lane only when you can also see your next step opening. If the lane ahead will not clear in time, stepping back down is a real option. As crossings get faster, the gaps get tighter, so commit fully when you go — lingering in the middle of the road is the most dangerous thing you can do.
