Sphere by ccscanf

[raw]
made by ccscanf for LD24 (COMPO)
Not really a game, but my first attempt at a web game. I reused some base code from @mortehu and tried to make something new, but I came short of ideas for evolution. Bad planning had also terrible effects on my game.

The game has no victory conditions.

Update: changed the web link to my own url. The game has not been changed, only the url. I had to use a friends url, because of my hosting expired.

It's quite good and really stable for your first web game. I would like to have a highscore like "You survived 2:00 minutes"

An interesting take, but I'd have liked to move left and right as well.

Cool idea but it's a bit frustrating when things that kill you spawn like in front of your face and you have no time to evade :( But it's great for your first attempt :D

A bit like Osmos. Simple, but kinda fun.

Not bad for your first web game. Could be fun, but needs a bit of tuning, as the other spheres pop in a bit too close for it to feel "fair" :)

The "except yourself" in the description a bit confused me.
Nice work for a first web game ever!

It's very difficult. May be it be better, if your dot will be aligned to the left border. Sometimes green dots appears behind your and you haven't any chances to catch they.

Thanks for all the comments. For those qurious, in the screenshot I titled the game "Red giant", but since my github repo was named Sphere, I changed that in the last minute before upload. I forgot to update the screenshot.
