SlippyBlocks by pht59x

[raw]
made by pht59x for LD29 (JAM)
Here is the toy. It's more like a (half) proof of concept than a fully baked game. The game mechanics is rather unusual (I hope), but there are neither levels nor sound.

At the moment the only challenge is to beat one's ownn previous time. Works fine on a desktop and is OK (but clumsier) on Android.

Anyway, playing with CoffeeScript/JQuery to toy with things was great fun and very practical to try and test many prototypes, out of them SlippyBlocks is a tiny little one.

Interesting concept, even if it's more a proof a concept than anything !

Nice concept, if you can polish it more and add some more mechanics it could be a pretty fun game!

Little off-theme, but interesting.

Interesting gameplay and input concept. I was surprised that I didn't need to click on anything.

I didn't really get the mechanics. I it correct that the blocks move randomly when moused over?

I don't understand what I'm doing. What's the concept you want to proof? I've played 3 times and I don't get it.

Like others have said, I have no idea how to play this game. Might want to add more details in your description.

Hi. Not sure how the game aspect works, but the toy functions! Needs clearer instructions I think or starter levels to be an accessible game.

Kinda neat. I commend you for actually finishing something that is playable, at least. ;)

Interesting game, but clearer instructions would be helpful. The blocks moved off the arena by mousing over, but other times, more blocks appeared. Was there an order to removing the blocks (ie clear all the red ones)?
