Snap to visible grid - perfect solution for any game genre
  • Hello fellow scirians <img src="{SMILIES_PATH}/icon_e_biggrin.gif" alt=":D" title="Very Happy"> ,

    This is my work in progress game called Grid Passer; a retro style arcade game where the objective is to clear the yellow/green/blue/purple

    grid cells. Since its still in development, read the tutorial bellow to understand how to play the game. I plan to update it until i get to

    1.0. You can play the game on game jolt, with a keyboard or gamepad. The game uses random grid cell generation, so there

    is no level ceiling for scoring points. Although the final version 2.0 game will have an ending to it. 8)

    Planned features

    -Qwerty & Azerty keyboard layout setting, gamepad support.

    -Mouse and gamepad support.

    -Increase difficulty per score milestone.

    -3 types of cells (positive, negative, and random cells)

    -Game jolt score uploading.

    -Unique music.

    -Full screen support.

    Tutorial

    Your objective is to clear all positive cells, while avoiding the negatives cells which deplete your score.

    Passing over a positive cell will earn you a base point. If you pass over another cell with the same color/symbol,

    as your last pass, it will yield higher points.

    Once you pass a cell, it flips into a mutli colored cell left by orb. These cells exists, as long as you don't overlap them.

    Keeping as many of them by the end of the level, will earn you bonus points.

    Each level milestone reached, will introduce a new dangers on your journey through the fabric of space time.

    Can you get orb to his final destination?

    If using mouse, use the left click for menu text and to move 1 cell distance from player.
