I decided the interpret the theme as the tiny world inside the human body, and made a game where you indirectly control white blood cells and have to guide them to destroying viruses.
This is my third Ludum Dare entry, and the first one where I feel I have actually made a complete game (albeit a very short one).
Once again, I ran out of time before I could add any more levels, and there are more features I would like to add, such as environmental dangers, new types of blocks to affect the blood cells, a logo, and more audio.
Despite that, I am incredibly proud of what i've done, and I can see enough potential in the idea that I am really keen to polish it up some more over the next few weeks and see how far I can take it.
I really liked it. I wish you had more time to add additional levels. Other things that would be nice, which you may or may not have thought of: -speed up/down/pause -restart button (perhaps from pause?)
Great art though, and definitely worth pursuing in the future.
yeah, wish you had more levels, too. it was like 'i just got used to the controls, and now it's over' :/ tested in firefox first, and the arrows didn't appear. aftrer that, tested in chrome, where it worked
Didn't run in Safari or Chrome, just shows a black box (OSX Lion). Gets farther in Firefox, but on Level 2 clicking the "CLICK HERE -->" green square does nothing. Looks like it could be fun, but couldn't play.
Using firefox when I got to the second level, the click here did nothing so I couldn't test the game. It also wouldnt load at all under IE. However, I liked the concept and it seems like it could be a good puzzle game.
Nice simple puzzle concept. Would have liked a reset button and more levels. I found a possible bug on the last level where I placed an arrow right at the top of the screen and it had no effect on emerging white blood cells.
I had a bug on level 3 on the bottom left corner where cells wouldn't pass near the wall and just go back. Anyway, I like your game, the idea is pretty fun and graphics fits. A good start to a bigger scale game !
Unfortunately the HTML5 beast rears it's ugly head again. Nearly all HTML 5 stuff only seems to work in Chrome and IE9, and half-assed to not at all in anything else.
Sorry to everyone who's having problems running this, I will try to do a couple of bugfixes this weekend to help out the Firefox users. I only had time to check it in Chrome during the original weekend, and i haven't had a chance to revisit it since :(
