The Square by FrozenCow
A game initially inspired by The Cube (http://www.imdb.com/title/tt0123755/) and Portal (no link required).
It's a short game that can be completed under a minute playable in a browser using javascript.
Controls are:
left and right arrows to move
A to jump
S to use objects.
I've tested the following browsers and they seem to work fine:
* Chromium 15.0.874.121
* Firefox 8.0.1
* Opera 11.60
It does even seem to be working in the Android browser, but I don't have the keys to control my character on my phone :P
If you have any problems with any browser or version, please let me know. I'm interested in the kinds of problems.
Existing code used: require.js underscore.js.
If you can't find how to solve the later stages you can decode the following base64-string for a hint:

Needs to disable typeahead find for the keypresses to work. Every time I press 'A' to jump, the find-in-page box captures all further keystrokes. (Firefox 8.0.1, but any browser w/typeahead, really)
In general, this means returning false from your key handler functions. If you're using a framework, it probably has a disableTypeAheadFind() method of some sort.
I *almost* stopped at the ostensible ending screen.
I've looked into type-ahead and found it in firefox, but there doesn't seem to be a fix for me to do (return false or true doesn't work and any functions I search for online also will not work). There do seem to be other people suffering from this problem too. I guess the web isn't yet fully supporting games yet ;).
