Re: Simple, Brilliant 2d Game
Thank you so much for sharing! That was quite possibly THE most original / creative game I've ever played. And the fact that anything could be so much fun with such.. primitive graphics. It's amazing.

That was great I really like how the image is revealed as you explore this seemingly random world of pixels. The music was great as well. A great original indie game.
Re: Simple, Brilliant 2d Game
That was really cool. Not sure if there was a point to it but still cool. I like how the artists was able to express so much with such a low pixel depth.

Simple, yet creative... I like it.
I rate it... 10 gold stars and a cookie.

I loved and hated this at the same time. It kicked my OCD into overdrive and I needed to reveal every single pixel before completing the area.ChrissyJ91 wrote:That was great I really like how the image is revealed as you explore this seemingly random world of pixels.
