On level 5 it seems to expand, but then you only get a bigger map where you can't really see the whole picture, so you have to find which keyhole\/key is really accessible before you grab a key.\r<br\/>\r<br\/>Lack of Audio doesn't help either, and I can't really understand why the repeat-levels-but-they're-easier thing exists XD"},{"author_name":"Vi-King Games","author_uid":"30758","time":"Dec 18, 2013 @ 12:09am","epoch":1387325040,"text":"The game's take on the theme was great, I liked the graphics and music, and the hat was quite comfy.\r<br\/>I like it! :D"},{"author_name":"eli","author_uid":"1395","time":"Dec 18, 2013 @ 9:07pm","epoch":1387400520,"text":"Awesome game!!\r<br\/>The music is really wonderful and adds a whole lot.\r<br\/>The walk animations (and hat!) are pretty good.\r<br\/>I thought the puzzles were a bit simplistic, and progressed by simply making it take longer for each level. But when I found you could revisit the changed levels, it felt really good. They were easier than the first time, but I really like the idea that the player is acting to permanently remove all color from the world. It feels like untying a knot."},{"author_name":"lorniebear","author_uid":"31739","time":"Dec 19, 2013 @ 5:08pm","epoch":1387472580,"text":"Interesting game!"},{"author_name":"foumart","author_uid":"14368","time":"Dec 26, 2013 @ 1:14am","epoch":1388020140,"text":"I'm looking at your third level and think how you could improve this game. That third level alluded some puzzle notes to me. Maybe instead of increasing the keys, try to increase the colored locks in a kind of more variative dungeon (but not as big as the huge level). The goal could be to examine the one possible way to the exit, with the addition that when you take a key you can unlock all and only the same-colored locks with it. if you can unlock all of the chosen color locks you'll be able to take another color key and so on until you reach the exit. hope that makes sence."},{"author_name":"Muciojad","author_uid":"21095","time":"Jan 1, 2014 @ 1:43pm","epoch":1388583480,"text":"Awesome!

This great contest made my finish my second and fourth game :) Obviously, these games are quite small and only have a few levels and so on (I guess you know what I mean), but I hope you will like it nevertheless.\r\n\r\nIn this game you have to open locks with the corresponding keys hidden in the dungeons. There are several locks in most levels, but you only get one key. Therefore, you will need several tries for most levels, but you will see.\r\n\r\nI'm looking forward to reading your comments on whether you like the game or not. In either case I would appreciate if you could tell me what can or should be done better the next time. Thanks for playing, rating and commenting.\r\n\r\nControls:\r\n- mouse for selecting levels\r\n- arrow keys for moving\r\n- escape to leave a level\r\n\r\nRemember, you only get one key ;)\r\n\r\nI mainly used the following tools: Eclipse Orion, pixi.js, Tiled, The Gimp, Bfxr, inudge","title":"Key by Key"}
