Connected Worlds (original name, I know) is a game made entirely in 72 hours. All art and music was created by Jacksack (http://www.twitch.tv/jacksack) and all programming was done by myself. (http://jordanfitz.com)

Libraries used:
jQuery (http://jquery.com/)
Salmon JS: (https://github.com/JordanFitz/SalmonJS-2)
Salmon is unfinished, and is mostly for my own use. It's basically just a collection of utility functions that make setting up canvas projects easier.

The controls are explained within the game.

Interesting concept. Perhaps a reset button is in order for some of the trickier levels. The face drawing feature was also really cool.

The graphics are nice and the music is quite fitting. Also, Drawing the different characters faces is a pretty clever idea!

I liked the face drawing.
I found the controls awkward. I think 'E' should be both pick up and place.

I liked that this game gave the player the power of creativity from the get-go. Cute game :)

Fun game. I could tell some work went into this.
The control scheme was rather awkward though I'm afraid. The face drawing thing was a nice feature.

"Loading textures" brings me back to the old days of cannon fodder! Nice design overall and very clean. Great job

A bit of a predictable concept, but it's still fun. It would be great if the world-switching was more instantaneous.

Platforming controls felt great. Nice puzzles game. The block collection and placement control choices felt a bit awkward to me but I got used to them. This was a very solid entry overall!

I really liked the face drawing feature, and the gameplay was interesting. It's nothing that hasn't been done before, though, and the controls weren't tight. Regardless, I enjoyed this game even though I wouldn't label it more than average gameplay. That face drawing feature though; it was great! Just spend less time on a small gimmick and more time on the gameplay next time.

I liked the face drawing part the best ;)
the art was reallly good, and the music was nice for the first 5 minutes.
I think you need a better puzzle mechanic, though; The block was a bit boring a repetitive.
Also, space was a bit awkward, I kept hitting it thinking I would jump.

Loved the face drawing feature! Kicked the game off to a great start! The world switching mechanic and singleplayer co-op style puzzles were great! good job

Its a cool base for a puzzle game. I wonder what you could do to tie the face drawing idea to the rest of the game a bit more? Maybe several gameplay elements could be introduced over time, and every time you get to draw something for it?

Very polished, with neat concepts and good mechanics.

Fun, the face drawing really made this game stand out :)

Great idea / interpretation of the theme. Fun to play, but I didn't like the music. Drawing my own faces was fun
IAmSpencer26 Aug 2014, 06:53
I spent waay too much time drawing stupid faces XP, really fun and a solid idea. Would love to see this concept developed more :)

Nice art and audio and solid polish. Controls felt nice.

Face drawing was a fantastic bit of polish to add.

Cool game idea, drawing your own faces is a nice touch. The game overall feels polished and well thought out, nice job!

Wow, really really cool. Drawing your own characters was a really nice touch. You should definitely develop this further!

Excellent use of the theme and very pretty looking. A little frustrating on the controls, specifically, it might work better if switch world was on space down and not space up. Overall very nicely done!

I liked it. Espetially ability to draw their faces, pretty good %)
