LESSER EVIL

LESSER EVIL is a five-level action game about a character trying to figure things out. Fight enemies, collect powerups, and earn points on the way to a final boss. The timer changes who is under pressure: enemies try to run and hide while you have time, but when time runs out, you become the one who needs to escape.

Abilities and controls

Move with WASD or the arrow keys. Space or Z dashes; Q or C activates a wormhole. E or X uses a pulse when the character’s head is burning. Learn these three actions alongside basic movement so you can respond when the chase changes direction.

Hold Escape to open the menu. Progress saves at each level, so the level boundaries provide stopping points between attempts. For fullscreen, use the player’s fullscreen control rather than the game’s F-key shortcut.
