DAGMA is a frantic, fast-paced arcade game that combines the children's game Red Light, Green Light with timed minigames. 

As a running microwave, you must race to the finish line while DAGMA turns his back and stop in your place when he is watching. 
But there is no time to just wait around! Complete the minigames as quickly as you can so you can continue racing as soon as possible. 

If DAGMA catches you moving, he will not hesitate to blast you backwards!

Controls:

To run, quickly press Q and E to build momentum.
To play the minigames, use the mouse.

Created as part of the GMTK game jam 2026, under the theme "Countdown".

Future plans include multiplayer support, where you and your friends can race each other to the finish line, and additional home appliances to play as (washing machine, oven, dishwasher). 

Stuck on a minigame? Here's a cheat sheet:

Popcorn pop: Click on the jumping kernels to pop them. Avoid the burnt kernels!
Keypad riddles: Click the numbers on the keypad to answer the riddles. Press "Time" to submit your answer.
Simon's microwave: Repeat the presented sequence by clicking on the numbers.
Cook the chicken: Click the "Open" button when the chicken is perfectly cooked.
Cleaning service: While clicking, quickly drag the mouse over the dirt stains to make them disappear.
