Build minimalist works during a 10 second engagement. After 10 seconds, you have the opportunity to view the piece. You can start typing again to reset the clock and create something new.
Each keystroke brings something new to the creations. Experiment and discover your own expressions.
Awesome man! I saw your tweets all weekend and couldn't wait to try it out. It is more of an experiment than a game, but it's perfectly executed. Only thing I could possibly suggest is an infinite stream of text. Sometimes it's therapeutic to just type and see this image change, instead of getting an image and restarting. But great work!
This thing is curious, I try to find pattern but each world are unique making differents thing. I thing you can turn this in game like find the correct word.
Abstract and beautiful. I'd love more concrete rules for each keypress - something completely predictable. Harsh sounds making sharp edges, soft ones making rounded ones... then again, perhaps this is already the case! Interesting. Great work.
You already have won the compo because of the title :). It's more experimental art then a game now. I wonder how could it be expanded into something where you slowly explore the inner workings of the this picture generator.
I love how it's randomly generated based on input! I can only imagine so sweet enviro-effects if it had some sounds w it too. Although, I still got a boat. Is that supposed to happen?
CORRECTION: I love how it's "NOT-randomly-generated-but-still" based on input! So, basically, I love it. That is all. You may now return to your regularly schedule gaming.
Really enjoyable just to watch the piece grow - the idea that I can learn what effect each key had and perhaps learn to purposely create a world is pretty cool!
I like keyboards. There are lots of "create art from a strange input" things, the "canonical" example I can think of is otomata. But this one uses the keyboard! Something about the way I understand keyboard makes this feel more like I'm exploring a giant space of possibilities rather than painting random stuff with the mouse or whatever.
Watching the colored film overlay interested me. If you continue to develop this, I did not pick up on the mapping between the grammar and the graphics.
Fantastic stuff. Lot's of fun to mess around with it. Also, if you write "pointy birds" you actually get a picture of pointy bird that appears to be inflating a balloon. Go figure.

Although the patterns are a bit repetitive...
I can do this forever
why do I keep creating worlds
oh what would this word look like let's try
oh god please let me stop
(accurately sums up my playthrough of the game forever)
Interesting. Good work!
Interesting game. Cheers
