My original idea (Random Battle Manager 2013) turned out to be wayyy to big a project, so I whipped this up in the past 5 hours.
As such, it's buggy if you spam the space bar. There's not really any goal either, but it's something I made and something I want to build upon, so it's not all bad.
Plus I still have Random Battle Manager to work on in my spare time!
Yep, the Dropbox link is broken and shows HTTP 403 (access denied). The standalone executable works fine, although I really miss some visual feedback regarding building placement (didn't even notice it working at first, till I kept an eye for the money counter).
After a while it seems like buildings appear late (like once they're in the middle of the screen; might be related to different widths?). Also it seems like it's almost too easy, the AI always trips into a gap after hitting one of the bumps on top the house with 2 bumps.
"Firefox can't establish a connection to the server at dl-web.dropbox.com." for the web build. Also, it would've been a better idea to participate in the Jam, as that would've afforded you an extra 24 hours of working time.
All that aside, I see high potential for this concept. A bit more work and you've got a golden game idea.
Ha ha! I started playing it for some reason thinking that I had to jump from building to building and kept pressing the space when the AI would do the same thinking I was controlling the jumping for three solid games.
Anyway, besides my mental lapse, interesting inverse running game. In the back of my head I see playing excite bike as a kid trying to make the level impossibly hard for my friends.
