A Thing by Simon
Warning: you can only play once until a player reaches the eye and everything is reset.
Edit: I uploaded a new version that is bug free :) If you are not here to vote you can play this post compo version.
The more the eye sees you the more you decrease in size until you're no more. Try to get to the eye by putting down walls and using the existing ones to protect you.
It's a partially persistent game. Each player leaves a trace: the walls put down and the position at the moment of death. The more the game is played, the more easier it gets to reach the eye. When a player reaches the eye the game is reset and you can play again :)
I think that the game would work better with millions of players to allow each one to replay the game at anytime...

I died before I could do anything, and I didn't even know what sprite I was. The grey circle moved to the red circle and it ended. If you expect anybody to finish this game so others can play it again, it's going to have to be you who completes it.
I had little time to play other games but I should be able to do it soon enough.
Also, I prepared a post compo version that I will be adding tonight or tomorrow. You will be able to try again if you wish.
Sorry about the fact that you had a hard time playing the game. I hope that less bugs and more players will smooth the experience as I don't think I will be extended the game any time soon :)
