LD36 by Joff
My attempt at making a game for LD36 using HaxeFlixel, Move your way around the map to collect the 4 pieces of an Ancient Technology and find out which one of 16 you managed to get.
Annoyingly there is a bug with the generation that sometimes requires a reload :(

Pretty tough but it becomes easier once you work out how the snakes move. The procedural generation works fairly well, I was able to find all four pieces and couldn't see any disconnected parts.
Might be worth considering a counter to show how many pieces are left, and you could add easy/medium/hard where there are fewer or more pieces that you need to find, and you can get better/worse artifacts? :D
dem snakes move too fast lol, i lucky enough to find 3 pieces very near me at the start
i like the random nature of this game, different start point at every time, probably need a bit more validation that make snake not spawn near player at the first start
so far so good, a very solid entry

@Ghen & @DiegoCTorguet That is one of the things that bugs me as well I should have done a check to make sure they didn't spawn in the same room.

@rynti @peterthehe & @onyon I am glad you enjoyed it :D
@TheMightySice I forgot to update that bit, I think it is about 5 pixels out which is mildly annoying.
It would be nice if the light were centered(it really bothers me).
The game seems very smooth. :P
I spawned once or twice next to a snake, which made things difficult. That said, handling snakes was a fun learning experience, as dodging them after the first few was easy.
Maybe a larger viewport (ever so slightly) would allow the player to see the snakes before they come knocking, especially in those narrow corridors where they're waiting just on the other side. The light on the player was a cool effect, with different brightness out from the source, though it could have been centered a little more (and for bonus points, it could even extend further at the much reduced brightness!). Good jorb all told!
