This game is an experiment with the drastic and dynamic change of the scale. In the process of the game you will be reduced to one millionth of your original size - and then grow back, on the several occasions.
In this game, "Tiny Creature" is an anomaly that makes everything around it - including you -
the smaller the closer you are to it.
You control (with WASD/Arrows and Space for handbrake) a car that can function even in such tinified state, and your task is to collect such creatures as fast as possible.
TIP: Area around the anomalies can be easily located by the tiny object around it (like around the one that is initially marked).
WARNING: Around the anomalies, car can be hard to handle, especially, as you move TO the anomaly, as the car retains the inertion of speed that it had when it was bigger. Also, there are secondary anomalies around the main one, which harms the vision and handling.
The program itself is tiny as well - just 5kb zip file.
I have used the slightly modified xem's tiny 2d physics library - about 1kb zipped, handles radical scale change quite well. https://github.com/xem/mini2Dphysics
