Bendwire
โก BENDWIRE โก
You are the wire. The wall is coming. Bend fast.

A fast arcade game played with four keys.
Every key press bends a copper wire one step. Match the slot in the oncoming wall before it hits you.
Walls rush at you out of the tunnel, each with a slot cut into it. Read the shape while it's still far away, plan your moves, then type them in one quick burst. Match the slot and the wall flies past. Too slow, and it costs you a wire. Lose all three and it's over.
No button prompts. Only shapes.
