Summary: Disc Room is a hardcore dodge-'em up brought to you by Kitty Calis, Jan Willem Nijman, and Doseone. A utopian future filled with lethal discs, requiring only reflexes and strategic use of slow-motion. As more rooms are unlocked, a way out might appear: "You don't have to die... you can live! Live 30 seconds and grow old!" An arcade survival game with the goal of lasting 30 seconds in a room where various types of spinning bladed discs appear and bounce around, your only advantage is a short duration ability to slow down time. There are 5 sets of 4 stages with a bonus stage unlocked if you survive 30 seconds in all 4. The next set of stages is unlocked based on the overall points collected. A total of 3 points can be collected for each normal stage, by surviving 10, 20 or 30 seconds, A re-imagined version of the game was revealed in 2020.
