Note: Controls are left and right. Not tested on real HW but timings should be large enough to work.

(I first thought the controls were broken but it works, the rabbit just doesn't react while you press inputs.)

It's quite charming and challenging for such a simple game. It could do with a "streak" counter to make the challenge more exciting perhaps!

Hah, the ears added a lot of personality to Chappie, and you made a game out of it. Excellent choice :D
Omar, please watch the movie :)

Sorry I didn't made it clear that the inputs were recorded and checked only after the 7th press, I'll make an update later on tonight.

Actually drew Chappie for fun but only realized the competition was open yesterday thanks to TmEE. The drawing then found an use.

Edit: Score and input feedback update :)

A few things here - I love that this relates to something so *current* Chappie has not long been out. Really nice art. Would love to see you develop it so his ears go when I repeat the pattern.

Thanks for the kind words :)
Might add other robots and music later, but for now the competition version is done, won't update any further.

I like this game. With the scoring and arrows in place, it is simple, beautiful and to the point. I can get almost 20! :)

I like how you could have gotten away with just regular digits for scoring, but implement a lot nicer approach. Aesthetically pleasing.

The system for keeping score. I think it is more correct to make the fifth point go across the four other. So you finish the group of five, by making the fifth point go across the four others. That is how I learned it, anyway. As it is now, you get five points |||||, and then another line comes in an crosses them out. That makes them look like groups of 6 points. IMO.
