Fruit The Ninja!

You've hear of Fruit Ninja, but what if the roles were reversed? Throw fruits at the ninja and try to get as many hits as possible!

Each fruits have unique abilities when you throw them, with 4 random fruits being available for you to choose at any given point in time. Use your keyboard buttons 1, 2, 3 and 4 to choose the fruits

But there is a catch! The ninja is a very skilled one, so hitting him one fruit at a time is not effective as he will just slice through them. That's why you can press SPACE and trigger SLOW MOTION, where you can throw multiple fruits at a time and then release the slow motion to have the ninja cornered between different types of fruit at the same time. This way you'll surely get a hit, right?

Controls:

1, 2, 3, 4 to choose the fruit slots, SPACE to toggle/untoggle slowmotion. Drag and release with mouse anywhere outside the table on screen. You can control speed with how strong you drag.
