DON'T TEXT AND WALK
TYPE THIS
On my way
In modern society, accidents and trouble caused by "texting while walking" have become a serious issue. We launched this project to let people experience—safely within a game environment—just how much this dangerous behavior steals your attention.
Players must dodge incoming obstacles while under the pressure of "replying immediately to their boss." Through the difficulty of this multitasking, we aim to convey the dangers of real-world distracted walking in a way that is both humorous and serious.
While you are tapping the text input field, time in the game slows down (bullet time). If you feel like you can't dodge the dense crowd of obstacles, enter typing mode immediately to assess your escape route. This is the key to survival.
Typing the requested phrase correctly earns you a massive score bonus of +500 points. Since there's a limit to how much score you can get from distance alone, actively replying whenever you see an opening is crucial.
