Wall-holo is a top-down perspective puzzle game.
You are in a labyrinth and each time you move, the walls move too.
Find the right moves to reach the exit.

On one level to another, all the walls were supposed to rearrange themselves to form the next level in order to stick with the theme. Not exactly what we have been able to do but that's the idea.

Team:
- Alice Contal as Level Designer.
- Dimitri 'ShadowMitia' Belopopsky as Programmer & Sound Designer.
- Matthieu 'Eldaryze' Chardon as Programmer & Graphic Artist.

Music by Robert Del Naja (Track: DT3).

Instructions:
Use the arrow keys to move and press R to respawn if you are stuck.
Reach the red checkpoints to go to the next level.
The green checkpoint is the active checkpoint.
Blue checkpoints are standard checkpoints.

NB: - If you see 'Loading', be patient, the game may need some time to load all the assets.
- Due to some hosting issues, the game may never load if you use the primary link. In this case use the mirror.
- If it still doesn't work, you can download the source and then open 'index.html' in your browser.

It's a great idea. The levels seem kind of randomly desingned. Given more time, though, I'm sure you could be much more clever with the design.

Never loads. OSX 10.10 Safari 8.

There is now a mirror link that should solve this hosting related issue.

Nice work! Really good mood with the music, fun and original gameplay, I wonder how you create all these levels?

It's really unique and fun. I do find the rules of the game a little confusing at times, as I seem to be able to pass through certain blocks at certain times at certain places but not anywhere else. It also looks really nice. Bravo.

@cutandreil: It looks like there is nothing i can do if too many people try to load the game in a short amount of time. But if you don't want to wait, just download the sources and open the index.html file in your browser.

@pandamicro: We used 2 arrays. One as a standard tilemap and another one to specify the patterns fo the blocks. The pattern is described as a string. 'g' means 'gauche' (french for left), 'h' means 'haut' (french for up), 'd' means 'droite' (french for right), 'b' means 'bas' (french for down) and '-' means the block stay in position. So for example 'ddbbgghh' makes a square loop pattern. Don't hesitate to take a look at the source code. ;)

Interesting idea and interesting game. Make better graphic, design of levels and add some music to the background! This can be really good game!

Btw. Check out my project, thank you!
