I had only a few hours available for this Ludum Dare, and I wanted something quick. I ended up experimenting with a (very) strong constraint I gave myself, derived from the theme : "You Got Only One... Pixel To Make Your Game !"
So here are some mini games, with a dimension of 1px * 1px each.
1px is obviously too small to display rules, or to show scores... so it was quite difficult to do.
Ok, like my previous attempt for Ludum Dare #27, it's again a concept / experimental thing, not very fun to play, I reckon. But I like to use Ludum Dare to do things I don't usually try.
See them as mini puzzles.
Technically, nothing difficult here :
- HTML5 / CSS / JavaScript with 1px x 1px canvas elements.
Good idea, but only Game A worked (made random sounds). All zooms didn't work and other hotspots didn't work. Testing in Chrome on Windows 7 64-bit. Would have liked it all to work for me - creative take on the theme!
A : color ? B : reflex C : color = code D : spam E : find
I think the C game is indeed the most difficult one. It will take several tries and errors, and good observation sense, to get it.
@Tsumei : I realized the sound is too loud, sorry ! I made a quick fix.
@tommakesgames : too bad :-( . I don't know what could have gone wrong, I use Chrome, and these are only classical jQuery effects. I'll have to investigate.
Loved it! I had no idea what expected me, I mean, what kind of games would work on a 1x1 canvas? But you sure showed me wrong. I'm not exactly sure of what I did on the third game, but I eventually won. Great adaptation to the theme, straight to the point, and the games themselves aren't half bad!

The games are creative even with the constraint, I love it!
Chapeau l'artiste ! :)
