ok. so this is about 3 days of work so far.
but now i need input from you, the masses...

#1:
is this too simple?

#2:
is this at all fun?

#3:
are the puzzles actual puzzles? ( because i build them, i know what to do with them, but what if i don't build them? will they still be puzzling?)

#4:
is this dumb?

#5:
would it really be so bad if the world ended tomorrow?

please answer these q's for me if you comment...


back end stuff
i kept the 'game' small and simple for a demo (i don't think 27kb needs a pre-loader yet, though i am going to need one at the end. especially as i start bringing in some sound and ambiance), thus I'm gonna take this "thing" and illustrate over every level at the end (this will probly make it look really cool.). now i'm asking you, the player, to explore and discover jimmy's world...

if you wish to skip levels, the little white blocks at the bottom allow you to skip back and forward, respectively, and in between the two white buttons, theres an invisible black button with which to reset the level. These will be tweaked later, but for now: use them. they work.

all in all, the click counter needs to actually tally your overall clicks, to allow a total review at the end (and i was thinking of adding a PAR to each level, just to really mess with it). I'm planning roundabout 100 levels, with increasing difficulty, and a continuous flow of new obstacles, seeing that they're so easy to add with the back end structure I'm using (which I'm really proud of!!!!).

that said, this thing is NOWHERE NEAR FINISHED, and i doubt that it ever actually will be.

on a different note:
i'm in need of some kind of back story on which to base the illustrations and the actual games back story, so if you have any suggestions, WHATSOEVER, please drop me a line (rather, a comment), and I'll add it to the think tank.
anybody who adds something to this in any way will be mentioned at some point in the game, so think about donating ideas and stuff.

i want to enter this into a competition of sorts, so the idea-ownership thing is important. (i WILL give credit where credit is due - CROSS MY slow beating HEART)

thanks for the help (if you help, that is), guys!
