Nice puzzle game. Puzzles are perfect for one-screen-only games, I just needed something "more" to justify the theme.

Nice puzzle game. Puzzles are perfect for one-screen-only games, I just needed something "more" to justify the theme.
Hey. Thanks for the feedback. The idea of the game is, that the 32x20 playfield is a screen ;) i didn't want to represent the player as moving object at first, but wanted to show the position of the player by intensifying the pixels color... plans didn't work out. So you have a player object which is running on the screen pixels :D

I can't seem to get past this part.
Otherwise, the game is pretty fun and I like the way you went about the theme! Great music too.
The movement is a bit jittery, but works.
Nice game!
Hmm... From your screenshot it looks like the player went just past the goal (which should not happen). I have some suspicions on why this might be, but not yet sure about it, as I could not reproduce the problem. Hopefully I can find the bug :D
Neat concept, there was some frame drops/lag with audio when I would move too fast the block animation would freeze up and the sound would be off but that may not be your fault
Visually appealing! Gameplay is simple as well as controls, great job!
The game looks amazing, good job! :)
The best game I've played so far this LD # 31. Very good job of level design. I think I might have a level indicator.
Spent a lot of time on this one, brilliant game. Had trouble on the one which was like a grid, there where so many ways to go it was confusing, but thats not a problem. Sweet! :)
Thanks for the feedback guys :D If you get stuck and you want to try out the other levels you could try out the desktop version (requires java). You can run that version with levels from an external folder. I added an example cmd file to launsch and a folder with the existing levels for the game. You remove the levels you can't beat and then start it :D A little readme is provided in the zip package.
I just dont like how the main character is, he just does not fit in the whole thing.
But I LOVE all the categories!
Nice game with great style. The level design is pretty good and the music is pretty closed with the game, which is awesome. Good Job!
Obs. I got stucked at the key level, the goal simply doesn't work.
This is a lovely concept. Would have been better if you could 'fall off' in order to restart when you get stuck though. I didn't realise you could restart by pretting R until I came back and read the instructions. Quality visuals and audio.
Audio really makes the whole mood of the game here, fantastic. For some reason I'm stuck on the level with the key, after opening the door pixels the blue pixel doesn't trigger completion. Apart from that, love it!
I couldn't get past the key level either, the goal doesn't seem to have an icon on it at that level. But the desktop version works. It's quite challenging, well done :)
Hey more feedback. Thanks guys. I'm also not that happy about the player, but all other things would not work out (mind I'm very bad at making graphics or chosing colors).
As for the issue. I followed a hunch and tested the entry in firefox and I had the same issue. Hope I can fix it, but at least I can reproduce it now. I hope I can upload a fix in the next few hours...
Ok, i put up a fix. If any of you could retest I would be very happy (probably have to press CTRL+F5, in case you have the game code already cached).
Cute puzzle entry, nice job!
@atombrot, thanks for the fix, it's working now =)
Nice effects and music was pretty good.
Great game, but the levels get repetitive after awhile.
Very cool puzzle game
This is pretty cool, I like the weird music and the colourful visuals, makes for quite a trippy mood. The gameplay reminds me a lot of a game called Sensitive on the C64, which had a similar 'move over falling tiles' concept, so it also had like a bonus nostalgia feeling for me. Pretty cool!
Nice puzzle game! The graphics are pretty nice, so as the animations at the start. Also nice level design. Only respawn could be little faster. Good job
Some great puzzles. Music made me play faster than I needed too.
Hey that's a nice game!cool concept!
Good aesthetic. A very simple concept but very well resolved
