while(true)

Are you tired of executing code? In this game, the code executes you!

It starts off very simple and gets out of hand quickly. Play as a little blue robot collecting cookies and chips in a small pixely world. See the code that dictates item spawning and enemy movement. Break out of an infinite and randomly-generated series of while loops of increasing difficulty and speed, or else the enemies being spawned will threaten your ability to keep playing.

This project was a lot to take on for me, and I will be the first to admit I neglected quite a few things (UI, music, and art, namely). I am, however, glad that I got all of it to fit the “old computer” aesthetic and be playable! This is my first Ludum Dare and I was determined to submit to the Compo, so I’m considering it a success regardless :)
