PixelVolution is the story of an evolving pixel... The game should have had 4 differents gameplays and music depanding of the evolution of the character, each gameplay proposing a puzzle... Unfortunatly, only one gameplay is present in this version, and music is not implemented. After this level, there should have be another evolution where you have arms and gameplay is a sokoban like, then you have an enigma, evolve again obtaining wings...But haven't been able to work on it the last day, so i just wrapped up the whole thing quickly and submit.. Anyway since it was my first Ludum Dare (or any other gamejam) ewperience, i'm really happy, good time ! Made in HTML5/JS with easelJS.
Well it's short. Very, very, very short. You should've added more levels! I'm afraid I must say that the linearity of the only level took away from the fun.
funny thing : on Firefox when I press up and down in game, the webpage scrolls up and down. Even after focusing on the game with my mouse. This isn't a big deal though, and it makes me thing I would love to play a game taking advantage of this glitch ^^ This idea sounds very promising, unfortunately, yeah, the game isn't finished at all. I would like to play further versions
I agree that there could have been more game play and the one level could have been more of a challenge but hey. This is what we do. We spend 48 hours to try to put something together and sometimes you hit roadblocks and just getting a product out is an achievement in itself. I see lots of potential in this. I love the look of you graphics.
i liked the art and text actually, though your level art was kinda inconsistant with the intro art. Not much to say about the game though, looks like you were planning to do a sokoban type game but just didnt get very far, would be interesting to see where you were going with this.

Graphics were nice and simple, though.
If you go down at the beginning, you get stuck, but you can always reload, so not that much of a problem.

I really liked how the game was revealing itself, but then it..stopped :D Next time less kittens, more levels.
I want to play more !
