It's a short game that can be completed under a minute playable in a browser using javascript.
Controls are: left and right arrows to move A to jump S to use objects.
I've tested the following browsers and they seem to work fine: * Chromium 15.0.874.121 * Firefox 8.0.1 * Opera 11.60 It does even seem to be working in the Android browser, but I don't have the keys to control my character on my phone :P If you have any problems with any browser or version, please let me know. I'm interested in the kinds of problems.
Needs to disable typeahead find for the keypresses to work. Every time I press 'A' to jump, the find-in-page box captures all further keystrokes. (Firefox 8.0.1, but any browser w/typeahead, really)
In general, this means returning false from your key handler functions. If you're using a framework, it probably has a disableTypeAheadFind() method of some sort.
Fun little game - I played through to the end. The first time I played, something strange happened when I interacted with the switch - I ended up in another room, stuck at the top unable to move.
@mildmojo, javascript performed better than I had expected, so I was surprised about the fps the game could run at. I've looked into type-ahead and found it in firefox, but there doesn't seem to be a fix for me to do (return false or true doesn't work and any functions I search for online also will not work). There do seem to be other people suffering from this problem too. I guess the web isn't yet fully supporting games yet ;).
The controls are a little...spastic, but overall I found this this to be quite playable and enjoyable. The puzzles were pretty well designed, and even though it was short, I felt it was a good experience. Nice ending too :)
