Welp, I think I've tried everything from jumping at walls to climbing and standing on all the platforms to clicking the light and pressing all the normal control keys. No idea what to do.

Nice ending. I wish it was longer.

Please never become a game developer.

Uhm...


... odd

Very funny - cute demo. Never mass release - you're likely to get death threats.

marin 2011-08-22 13:38

@kevglass Death threats? Wow, that looks cool :D

I love the "doom dudu-du doom" music.

maxx 2011-08-22 14:38

Odd, maybe like-able, but it lacks an objective, direction, i do not know what to do. Keep working anyway, maybe if it was any longer..

marin 2011-08-22 14:54

@maxx
The objective is: escaping.
The direction is: finding something to escape.

I couldn't get past the first room, so if there was some humor past there I didn't see it. The music was incredibly annoying in my opinion.

Dammit... is this one of those "Do you know how many [insert an occupation] does it take to screw a lightbulb?" If not, I'm in a need for a walkthrough. ;/

What is this I don't even. I mean, I won, but still.

elbowroom 2011-08-23 17:43

It was fun and light hearted. Thanks for the walkthrough

gornova 2011-08-23 19:34

weird for sure !! :D

thonk 2011-08-25 09:56

That was...interesting.
But I must point out that you're only supposed to use music that you've created.

rudy 2011-08-25 17:50

LOL @ ending >_> I guess the music earns this Humor points? It's a bit impossible without the spoiler though.

marin 2011-08-25 22:07

> But I must point out that you're only supposed to use music that you've created.

I've created it during the Ludum Dare (you can see Audacity in the timelapse) :) .

Well, it's funny, I'll give it that.
Seriously, though, this gameplay is horrendous. Even with the supposed "spoiler" it took me about five minutes to make anything happen. When it did, I couldn't tell why it hadn't.
HTML5 is a really bad platform for game dev, IMO, ESPECIALLY Ludum dare and like triply so for this game.
I don't think any browser is 100% compliant yet and even if one were, I don't want to upgrade just for that. So, when I'm moving around a box not seeing anything happening, how do I even know it isn't just an HTML5 issue??

Impossible w/out spoiler. V. strange
