I'm not sure if it worked on Firefox. It was pretty easy to just resize the windows to one of the boxe's size. Maybe the second boxes and the black wholes did not work? I don't know, but I am more rating the idea behind and the potential. So: very nice :)
This looks like fun! My tiling window manager controls window positioning, so I'll have to try this on a stacking wm. Nice logo too :)
It's the most creative submission I've seen so far in this LD.
But how to beat lv2? My pop up resizes itself so fast I can't even touch it.
When the popup resizes, let go of the mouse and let it do its thing! It will stop animating at a certain size and then you can keep playing.
Wow! Great Idea.
On Safari it does not work because the square is a little larger than the minimum window size, on Firefox it was a little choppy.
Gah, I was afraid some browsers wouldn't let you go shrink enough. Oh well, try Chrome if possible :)
Interesting idea, which plays with the theme in a clever way :). Needs more game, but hey, it's Ludum Dare.
This is pretty novel. I've never seen a game based on your actual browser window before. Also perfectly fits the theme. The game IS the one screen.
Took a little while (and some comment reading) to figure out, but decently fun after that. I'm not sure I got it, though... just sort of felt like doing the same thing over and over for no good reason. Tutorial, maybe would help, or objective.
I never thought will be fun to play resizing the window! In safari the left resize doesnt work...
I just pushed a fix that should make the game work with Safari's window size limitations. Let me know if there are more problems! Chrome is still the best to use though :P
Innovative - it IS! I'm not sure if it fits the theme of one screen, because there are lot of screens showing up, but... the theme is strange and can be interpreted in many ways :P
It is fun at the begin, but there is no challenge. It would be awesome if you could put some puzzles here.
But the idea is fantastic, kudos for this :)
A cool 'outside the box' interpretation! I did have my cubes completely dissapear on me though mid re-size and I couldn't find them again (causing me to lose). This was on Firefox.
Very Cool Game, Hard to control and should implement key input to make resizing more fun. Also The Audio was blastin in my speakers and it hurt me.
The concept is absolutely BONKERS in the best way possible. I was laughing my ass off trying to play this on Chrome for Mac, because level 3 makes the window go nuts and resize itself all over the screen (maybe because the scrolling text in the title bar?) Firefox worked beautifully on Mac, though. I got a high score of 15. Brilliant execution of the theme; I've never seen anything remotely like this game before. OH and I love the particles on the edge of the screen!
Awesome idea! totally unique. not much gameplay. definitely worth developing further.
I tried it in Safari first and I couldn't make the window narrow enough, but like you said Chrome worked fine. Very cool game, I couldn't get past the second level, and wasn't sure exactly what was expected of me... but interesting idea, and a unique take on the theme. Good work!
It's really an example of thinking outside the box, and it's the second submission I see using browser windows in this LD. Gamewise I'm not entirely sure I understood what to do, I just sat resizing my window for a while, which was ridiculously funny considering the circumstance. Interesting!
This was a super cool interpretation of the theme. Really innovative and cool. I had a really hard time figuring out how to play the game (for those reading through the comments trying to figure it out - you need to resize the window to touch the edges of the square), and even after figuring out how to play, I wasn't too sure what the ultimate objective was. Nice job!
@johnbrynte What's the other browser game? I knew other people must have used the browser windows but I haven't found any.
@Wertle You just keep going until you run out of "resize energy" (yellow border around screen). Thanks for playing!
Very interesting! Definitely a concept I haven't seen before. Well done!
A cool idea for the theme! Unfortunately as it stands it's almost more of a tech demo than a game. Would be cool to see the resize mechanic used for more!
Good idea but need more things to be fun. Did you what Managore made last LD (hop slide)?
I like what you made with the window's title!
@dunin Yes I've seen Hop Slide and I love everything Managore does and he's amazing and I hope I can be 1/10th as awesome as him one day .__.
The innovation on this one is up the wazoo! A fascinating experiment, but a bit tedious as well.
Interesting game, I don't really get the goal of it, but you can have fun with constant resizing of the browser window. :D
Hi there. Interesting idea. Found it a bit of a nightmare for clicking outside the window while selecting - but my mouse is crappy... Good job!

TEAMS: Teams entering the Jam should pick a single representative to submit your game, or create a team specific account you can share. We currently do not support Team Voting, but sharing an account and together playing and rating games is acceptable.
NOT LOGGED IN?: If you get a message about not being logged in, even though you are, it’s because your web browser cached the non-logged in page. You can fix this by either refreshing your cache or clearing your cache. CTRL+F5 in many browsers. Chrome is a bit more work. Press F12 to enable Developer Mode, then you can right click on the refresh button and select “Empty Cache and Hard Reload”. This option is unavailable if you are not in Developer Mode.
PORTS: Ports to other platforms can be done after the deadline. That said, the sooner you finish your port, the sooner people can play your game, improving your chances of placing in the final results. For best results, provide a Web version of your game, or a Windows version with no dependencies. Also be sure to rate about 20 games to improve your visibility.
MY GAME DOESN’T SHOW UP: If you can’t find your game, it’s usually because the URL to your downloads are missing ‘http://‘. Fix your URLs (http://mysite.com/mygame.zip) and you will show up. Alternatively, if you just posted it, wait a minute. The cache may not have refreshed yet.
MY GAME CRASHES, IS UNBEATABLE, OR I MADE A TYPO: We allow you to fix crash or win condition bugs after the deadline (in a sense, like “porting” to support more players). We also allow “typo” bugs. I.e. A true that should have been a false, a word that should have been a different word, very tiny changes that you would have caught if you had more sleep. We leave this open to interpretation, but generally speaking your game should be identical to the game you submitted. No new features, just things you messed up last minute. Typos.
Awesome!
