The idea for “Oil Spill Escape” came to me as a result of all the news about the oil spill in the Gulf of Mexico these past few months.

You play as a fish trying to escape a giant ploom of oil headed your way. You also must avoid any obstacles in your way and must keep up your energy by chowing down on some of the smaller fish.

If you hit into a rock or run out of speed, the game ends and you have an opportunity to submit your score.

How long can you last?
