The Entire Screen of One Game
(08 Dec 2014 at 16:12) |
This weekend was the 31th Ludum Dare, the 48h video game programming competition (which I have participated in many times). The theme was "Entire Game on One Screen". But this time I had several prior obligations such as flying to Zurich, where I now write you from. But, undaunted, and perhaps even freed by the inability to apply the normal polish, I put together this quick weird game, "Entire Screen of One Game." It can't be won, at least formally, and exists only to destroy your mind, but people seem to be getting it. Use the arrow keys and space. |

welcome to the tower of trickery |
Not sure "game" is the right word, but holy mindfuck... |
What am I doing when holding shift? |
I won |
I think I won, too :P on my phone, no less! |
Shift is like a debug mode (or "Second Quest"), and allows you to pan around and zoom in and out (with -/=). |
Hold down left and space. The pieces stack up and eventually escape the game field. |
it is cool gasme i want to play it hue hue |
Now I do not know whether I was then a red square dreaming I was a cyan square, or whether I am now a cyan square, dreaming I am a red square |
Weird "Game" |
brilliant |
This feels like a paradox... |
Took me some time to figure it out, but hell, this one is amazing! |
Thanks folks! :) |
cool game man.
the link on the left ("@tome") of http://entire.spacebar.org/ is formatted incorrectly. There's a colon missing after the "http". |
Yes, I just noticed that too. Thanks. Fixed! |
wtf:DD |
Oh! Are more recent blocks somehow faster than older ones?
|

jonas: Yes, deeper blocks are time dilated as 1/depth. |

wow sooo cool. You should make a mobile version with some kind of point system or goal and sell for 99c .... I'd buy |
This game must be renamed "Aspirin Outception". |

since the times of C64 I've been reading of how "certain games could cause dizzyness, nausea, bla bla bla". Never experienced, and deemed it bullshit.
I stand corrected. |
I got the pleasure to make a form in cube spread to infinite . |
Whoa! That is amazing!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! |
Are you aware that this is in Entertainment Weekly? |
Yes, someone sent me a picture of the little column on Twitter. :) Wild! |
This thing doesn't make any sense. What's the point? To waste time? |
You must lead a very purposeful and simple life. |
Creativity, at once self-kind, generous, playful, life giving. IMO intimately connected to a daring willingness to remain open beyond the immediately obvious, the stage for all manner of novel, interesting, wonderful new things. A meaningful point of being human i'd suggest. That, and.. it rocks! =) |
Sweet! I find myself inexplicably sad when I get the squares all the way to the top left and they escape the box and fall into the void. It's like a universe is dying. |
I showed my friend this game. It may or may not have destroyed his mind, but he seems to be ok. lol jk jk it didnt destroy his mind
anyways cool game |
cool one !!! |
This is the most fkin relaxing game I've seen. I could spent days with it, just miss some music. |
relaxing [insert 10^137 question marks] |
That is 2 cool man....trying to concentrate on the box within the box...Mindfuck is an inaccurate description...I think the winning is in just being able to maintain that focus, even for a short time is satisfying.
BTW HAPPY 2015 BRO.

Cool & brillant! |
Thanks Kirima! :) |
Here via Zoe Quinn's "10 Best Games of 2014" list. This was delightful and broke my brain a little. |
So happy to have made that list :) |
using shift and the =/- + shift "debug" i can make a wierd effect if i just keep zooming in |
this could be made into an entire puzzle game. |
Oh, hello! 💠 |
