The Universe Within
May 2012 | By Team Diversity
Collection:
This is a HTML5 canvas game written as part of the global game jam 2012 in 48 hours. All illustrations are hand-drawn and some of the audio recorded on-site.
It uses HTML5 canvas and audio API as well as the HTML5 accelerometer API which works in Chrome on Mac (So pick up your Mac and tilt to play!). This also works on Chrome Beta on the Android.
The theme of the game (and the game jam) is "Ouroboros" signifying the cyclical nature of the universe. This game tries to capture it with idea of recursive universes. The game won the best overall game of all games made in the NYU venue.
