Video of the game in action

Description of Bleeding Out!

Bleeding Out! is a top-down game where your character has been shot in the shoulder, and because of the general public's blatant disregard for your well-being, you have to limp the 10 blocks to the nearest hospital. You have about 70 seconds to live, evidenced by the speaker which simulates your heart beat.

Control your character with the Wii Nunchuk joystick, moving left and right to avoid obstacles, and forward to advance towards your destination. Utilize the Nunchuk motion combined with the C and Z buttons to dodge (read: move quickly) previously unavoidable situations.

As a player, you wear a blood pressure cuff outfitted with five vibration motors that indicate how much blood you're losing. Avoid as many obstacles as you can, but you can run into four objects and still make it to the hospital alive. For each object you hit, a vibration motor turns on, up to a maximum of five (at which point you die).

This game was designed, developed, and made awesome by Stephen Heitman and Timothy Kolek
