A Visit to the Gallery by Ismei

[raw]
made by Ismei for LD26 (COMPO)
This is my first Ludum Dare entry. I learned a lot while making this, and had some fun along the way. It turned out basically how I pictured it, which is an added bonus!

Use up, down, left and right to move. Step on the coloured blocks to alter the picture and reach the grey exit block.

The levels change up how they work every few levels, and there are little interludes.

I made this in Game Maker.

That's it. Hope you like it.

I played it through the whole game. It's nice. Not spectacular but quite entertaining. With some sound and more "surprises" it would have been quite a game :)

I got stuck in the walls a few times, but that's easily fixable. I'm glad you learned a lot from your first LD and hope to see more from ya' next time! :)

Very nice concept! Gets quite repetitive without challenge though.

Thanks for all your comments.
I did try to put in sound on the second day, but none of the tools I had had the sound I was looking for / couldn't seem to record it.
Can anyone recommend any good audio generation tools for next time?

I really like the way you put "Composition with Red, Blue and Yellow" into the game. And the story is adorable.

A story from daily life, alone, with art and passion...well, you need to add some challenges ;)

nice idea, if a little simplistic. also, controls are a little buggy and could use a tune up. but mostly, i'm sure you could have taken this idea further !

Very interesting mechanic! It could make for some really fun puzzler games. I also really liked rebuilding the map from one tile. Well done :)

Cute story and game. Just needs a bit more challenge.

Nice use of Mondrian, unfortunately it becomes repetitive pretty fast, but is an impressive work for a first one!
