So I’ve finished the framework, and just\u00a0started to implement AI behaviours.<\/p>\n

The idea is that you start with a single pixel on a 1024×768 “screen”. Then you have to collect the purple pixels, while avoid the red ones. Doing so will level up your character, and you’ll become a 2 pixel object, then a 3 pixel object, etc..<\/p>\n

The purple pixels are moving randomly, the red ones will chase you, if you get too close to them. The player leaves a fading trail (without that the game looks a bit laggy..), that makes the level 1 player look like some kind of snake. You have two bar, a red one, that shows the xp level, and a white one, that shows the “saturation” level (you are a colored pixel after all..). If you collide with red pixels, you’ll lose saturation. If you’ve lost all saturation, you die (or maybe you’ll level down…).<\/p>\n

Now I’ll make some new pixels and bigger objects, and then maybe I’ll make a zoom out effect after 4 levels or so (so you’ll see more area around you as you level up)<\/p>\n

Oh, and have a nice compo\/jam for you guys. ^^<\/p>\n
