About Injection Invasion

Injection Invasion is a dodging platformer with an unusually pointed premise. Injections come at you, and the only answer is to be out of their path when they arrive. Movement and timing are the whole game, and there is nothing here to fight back with.

A game with one defence lives on how well it shows the threat coming. A run is measured by how long you lasted rather than how far you got, which makes it something you replay instead of finish. It runs in landscape and plays on a phone as well as on a desktop.

How to play

  1. Watch where the injections are coming from.
  2. Move the boy out of their path.
  3. Survive. The score is how long you lasted.

Controls

Tap or clickEverything. One input does the whole game.

Tips

  • Keep to the middle where you can. A corner takes one escape route away from you.
  • Move early and move small. A late dodge at close range rarely clears the line.
