Pretty bland in terms of fun and game play. I went through many screens, collecting over 100 yellow boxes, and finally had to quit. Some use of sound, nice colors, overall a decent submission for 48 hours. Kicked my game for sure.
to spice this up a little, since each room has a border or some type, the border could be slowly closing in on you, get a bit of urgency in there. the movement could also be fixed up so that it isn't a keypress for every step
Always nice to see a bit of random level generation, but the world wasn't really populated with anything interesting (though the recurring features like the walled gold caches were good in that it gave a little more of a sense of place). The movement was a bit tiring on the fingers (even if movement is to be locked to grid squares, it would be nice if holding down a direction moved you that way at a steady pace), and the penalty for being killed was trivial (making death result in game over and having therefore the concept of a high score would help give the game challenge). Still, well done for getting a working game out.
As other have said, a little harsher penalty for death or another way to limit the game would have given this some much-needed depth, but there's something always fascinating about randomly generated worlds...
Hmm, not much of a game. You need to put some challenge or goal in there, even when it's only a highscore.
Also, when the focus is lost I can't get it back and have to refresh the page.
I liked the random level generation, but I thought that there could be some amount of difficulty added to the game, most likely by the enemies moving faster towards you.
When playing, it does not feel like I'm working towards a goal. Otherwise it's a good start.
This was a little monotonous, but at least it's a finished game.
