    Run, run, run! Just run!

    Escape Away: First Mission is an addictive arcade action game. It's easy to play but hard to win! You want fast action packed game? Try this!

    Being a spy, the last thing you should do is to get away before they catch you. The mission is simple , the control is very handy, the levels are HARD! So, let's get escaped away!

    Features:
    * Fast action packed and lots of fun;
    * Up to 12 well designed levels;
    * Easy control with Touch Screen or the Accelerometer;
    * 3 different in-game sound tracks.
    * Online global leaderboards plus Facebook and Twitter integration, courtesy of OpenFeint.

    Video: demo of level 9 on real device. Tilt and touch screen play method are included.



    Thank you, eggzbacon, you helped me to post the video.

    At #3 post you can find the video from simulator(slower than playing on device).

    The graphics look pretty good, but the gameplay doesnt seem very challenging from the video. Maybe you should make a video of a more difficult level?

    In fact it's difficult. The reason for this is because I recorded it from the simulator, and the simulator runs very slow on my mac. :(

    When you play with accelerometer, it's full of fun.

    Wel is it possible that you can show a vid of a later level as I too agree from the vid that you posted, it looks a lot on the easy side.

    If the game looks easy, but difficult to play when using an accelerometer, I worry thats more of a control issue than of game difficulty :(

    Sorry, maybe I didn't make it clear.

    It looks easy just because the speed is slow on simulator, in the real device it is fast and challenging.

    (perhaps I should borrow a faster mac to capture the video for real speed...)

    Oh I see... Hmmm, well... yeah... If you want to capture the real essence of the game with the video, you should probably get the game speed captured correctly.

    Hmm... Well, I think its an interesting gameplay (you can only move left, or right, but not stand still). But the execution is a little weird.

    To me it makes little sense why the guy is not allowed to stand still. Its almost like those action movies where the bus must be constantly moving at 60mph otherwise it will blow up. For this game however, I dont understand whats wrong with the guy such that he cant stay still lol

    In fact, I imagine that if the only control option is tilt, people might think that its a callibration issue.

    Actually, this is easily solvable (and maybe in a humorous way?). There can be a story line at the beginning of the game that explains how the guy has some movement disorder or something lol

    lol,...the man that can't stop running

    ...well, it would be a totally different theme for the game, but you could have a toilet at the top of each level...

    lol... That would be an awesome game, but you're right DG, the game will need totally new graphics. The hero could just be some random dude (instead of a spy outfit) and the enemies could be janitors going to and fro cleaning the floors :D

    Hi, you guys rock! The toilet idea makes me laugh for a long time. yes, you are right, that will be more and more fun, and the players will understand why he can not stop, lol.:D

    There is a story line before the game starts, but only show once. I'll make some changes when I update it. I'm already preparing for the next update.
