If anyone has good luck, the catch is there is a 33% chance any of your control inputs will be delayed by 3 seconds. Either way the movement is set to a certain value, so use them sparingly. ---

If you don’t mind, could I use a similar concept for a totally not cursed game? ---

That would have been incredibly cool. Did you make sure that the sprite’s x/y position and relative to screen were set every time the sprite was generated (if you destroyed it and remade it every time)? I’m not sure what else would be causing that. Either way, maybe there’ll be a mini game jam based on rhythm or something that applies to your game and you can release it then? This was just a few ideas I had, ofc you can do whatever you want. ---

the score is based on the time you take, it’s equal to `0xffffff - time you took in ms` ---

> [@Kiwiphoenix364](#): > > Did you make sure that the sprite’s x/y position and relative to screen were set every time the sprite was generated (if you destroyed it and remade it every time)? That was how I did it. The UI was created in a function and destroyed after the player completes a level. Thank you for the compliments by the way!! ---
