Avoid Dying

Drag, release, and pray your shot bounces exactly where you need it — one wrong angle means you're dead.

The first time I dragged back and let go, I expected a straight line. Nope. The projectile clipped a wall, bounced at a weird angle, and took out two enemies I wasn't even aiming at. That's the whole trick to Avoid Dying — it's less about aiming directly and more about reading angles, predicting ricochets, and managing your limited shots before something reaches you. Each wave throws more bodies at you, and they don't stand still. I found myself holding my breath on the last enemy of a stage, watching my shot drift just wide, then cursing as it bounced harmlessly into a corner. You learn fast: the angle indicator is your only friend, and tiny drag adjustments mean the difference between a clean double kill and a very quick Game Over. There's a real tension that builds when two enemies are closing in from opposite sides and you only have one shot left. The controls are dead simple — touch and drag, release to fire — but mastering the bounce physics takes genuine practice. It scratches that same itch as old Flash-era arcade games where dying was instant but restarting was faster. If you enjoy games that punish greed and reward patience, you'll lose an hour to this one before you notice.

Touch and Drag to aim, release to shot.

Bounce shots off side walls to hit enemies hiding behind cover — direct lines get blocked fast. Lead moving targets slightly; the projectile isn't instant, so anticipate where they'll be. Don't waste shots on far enemies when a closer threat is about to reach you. Watch the angle indicator carefully before releasing; tiny drag changes mean huge trajectory shifts. Some enemies take multiple hits, so keep your cool when they're still alive after one ricochet. Practice the first few levels to memorize bounce patterns — they repeat with tougher waves.
