Koballd Crawler by Recher

[raw]
made by Recher for Ludum Dare 55 (COMPO)
  • Click on one of the eight green balls, then click on a border of the map to launch it.
  • The ball goes to its primary direction, to the opposite border of the map.
  • When blocked by a wall, it goes to its secondary direction, indicated by the yellow arrow.
  • The ball stops when the two directions are blocked.

To restart a level, click twice on the button 1.

Try to get the cake.

I knew I would have very little time for this Ludum edition, so, it's not that bad.

This is why I called my game “Koballd Crawler”.

  • If I got short on time, the sprites would stay as green balls, like in “koBALLd”.
  • If I had time, I would have drawn kobolds instead, like in KOballD.

Looks like we sticked to green balls.

I'm the creator of Squarity, a little game engine where you code the logic in python, and you get a game you can play in a web browser.

I recently added click handling in the engine. There were only keyboard keys before. So, it’s the first Squarity game on which you can click!

Happy crawling!

Fun game and surprisingly challenging, but eventually I was able to get a more intuitive understanding of how the balls were going to move. I got stuck on level 3

Thanks for the comment @alanbrook. Just to be clear: all the levels in the game can be won (but there are only 3 of them ... )
