    So the mechanic of this game is you have to collect jewels for a royal whilst they struggle to escape from the hordes of “rocks” blocking their exit for some reason?

    I’m starting to think that this game is from the royal’s perspective and the “rocks” aren’t to be taken literally.

      This ads are ragebait, and they have nothing to do with the screenshots in their app. They advertise this way, because apparently it works for a lot of people.

          Wow it’s fun! Can the king win some way? The rules are a bit confusing. Reread it, now I understand. Adding an image of the blocks would help.

          It runs perfectly in firefox on android, the forced aspect ratio is strange, e.g. it would be useful if it could run vertically on a phone.

          You should definitely post it somewhere, to !imadethis@lemmy.zip or something similar!

            yea a phone aspect ratio would be a pretty good change to make before we put it on display next week. or like, to have as an alternative to the booth. hm

            also yea a loss condition is currently missing, it’s something we would do if we developed the idea more haha

            glad you enjoyed it! thanks for the posting rec
