Continuing from yesterday.
http://cursors.io/
- Added drawing (ctrl+hold left button)
- 3 more levels
Please post ideas for new levels or for the game in general, thank you.
Also, comment in this thread so it gets bumped and more people see it. The whole point of the game is having enough players for it to be fun :(
what is this
To the motherfuckers in this level, you just have to be fast and you can solo it.
>>268169148
OP here.
I don't know, I think that the charm of it is the limited communication...
>>268169995
How about at least a text chat to the admin.
>>268170186
You can post here and I'll read it. You can also email me at [email protected]
>>268167878
I don't get it. What do I have to do?
>>268170565
Basically, get to the green area, helping the other pointers and stuff. Some levels require cooperation.
I bought a 4chan ad so this goddamn game floats on top of everyone's screen. Hopefully that helps.
>>268170656
Or multiple tabs...
>>268170898
Yeah, for now it's kinda required cus there aren't enough players.
>>268168473
old Travis Touchdown or the yakuza guy from Paranoia Agent
This is kinda cheating, but if you have touch screen, you can teleport.
WORST LEVEL COMING THROUGH.
OUTTA THE WAY
>>268171765
I saw you doing that.
I don't have a touch screen and I can do it too.
all the clicking puzzles are way too easy
>>268171765
You can't go around walls with that, only traps that you're holding open, and it's intentional (you can do that with a mouse if you're fast enough).
>>268172010
I need ideas for better ones.
>>268172123
how about moving targets?
wouldn't be as easy to solo
>>268172324
What do you mean?
>>268172548
well, if there are multiple fast moving targets, the player might have a hard time even keeping up with a single one
>>268172706
Oh, you mean, moving buttons? Yeah... that could kinda work, but I think it's mostly a level layout problem. I need to make two buttons that are far apart in a labyrinth, so it's hard to solo.

You cruel motherfucker.
This game is horrifying

Fuck OFF
>>268167878
Cool game.
>>268167878
that was fun, hope you expand on it
Pic: level I just made.
Give me ideas for levels, just draw them in ms paint or whatever.
>>268175097
By the way, you spawn on the yellow button, just to be clear there. It's possible for 3 people to pass it if they cooperate, or only one if there's an asshole :)
>>268174017
I find it kind of fun, I really lovehelping people
What do I do? What's stopping me from going through the wall? Why can't I interact with anything?
>>268175097
Here's a map that requires teamwork and skill
>>268175885
Looks good, I'll implement something similar.
>move cursor to green area
>cirsor disappears
>can't do anything
welp
>>268176208
What level? Could you take a screenshot? Maybe it was teleported back to the beginning, there are a few levels that have that.
>>268172123
Just take that whole "needs of others", but put a bit of a maze in between, so people have to keep clicking for others and can't just dash to the exit. Maybe make the wall respawn much faster, or make it so two clickers work against each other (one opens a path up top, the other below, but a click on one of them not only drops it's own counter by one, it also increases the counter of the other clicker).
this is fun
i cant draw op
>>268177031
Hold CTRL.
OP (or whoever is the developer) could you draw a line between the cursor and your "ghost"-cursor, maybe as an option? The teleporting levels seem to confuse people, and when I started I didn't know I had an actual cursor as well, since it got lost in the fog of all the others. I think some connection between both cursors could help both problems.
>2014
>Not being a winner
>>268176278
nvm, i was dumb
suggestion: make your own cursor distinct from other at least on the first level
>That bottom left
That's actually kind of impressive considering the mechanics.
Fuck. my browser crashed.
Made it.
I had to finish that last room myself.
>teamwork drawing the dick
>>268177784
That bottom indeed.
>>268178013
CARLOS!
well that was dumb
>Bunnyhopping in synch along the edges
Why is this funny to me?
>open without reading OP
>see something about drawing
>assume it's just holding down the left click
>mouse disappears
this is very fun op
And it was all worth it in the end.
FUCK YOU
Best puzzle/sandbox game all year OP!
>>268175885
Here it is. It's based on your level but not exactly the same.
>>268179384
Fuck these narrow hallways, I'll just align the mouse pointer and use mouse keys to go straight.
>>268179310
Leave your square, so someone has to get there to open it again, learn to rebel :)
>>268179384
Ignore the red lines, it's the debugging mode.
>Trying desperately to make some sort of video game in the bottom left
>Some asshole just shits all over it
why is my mouse doing that shit where I get a circle coming from my mouse and I can't draw?
needs more levels that actively force teamwork
>>268179947
Read op's post.
how do i write
>>268179310
If I see someone standing still on yellow, I like to hover directly over them so it looks like there's one cursor there. Anyone watching that happen will notice it, but anyone entering afterward will think there's only one and go after the corners.
>>268180181
oh shit thanks.
>>268179384
It's perfect for what I had in mind
>write "jews"
>someone writes "did 9/11"
>>268175885
>>268179384
those walls
you're a goddamn monster
OP you should find a away to just turn the "you win" room into a normal flockdraw or some shit
make a rectangle where you have to keep moving your mouse to open the gate.
all those people taking it slow in the red boundary one, you gotta go fast.
I need more ideas for levels, give me all your mspaint skills.

We already have one similar to that (but with only one wall) and I kinda dislike it.

Don't remind me.
oh, dijkstra's algorithm in practice, i see
>>268167878
OP, i had some difficulty at understanding when i was stuck. maybe i am just tired but whatever.
great idea however.
>>268182601
It seems similar to an already existing level, though...
Make a timelapse of the draws.
>>268182540
How horrifying
>>268172012
so what's the poin t if you can travel traps alone?
>>268183171
Only on a few ones (where it only needs 1 person, or when there's exactly the number of cursors in the counter as the number of needed ones).
>>268183045
Not sure which one you're talking about. Also something new.
>>268183362
Where would you spawn in that?
>>268183464
fuck
what about a level where every player has a red corona around himself that banish others, effectively griefing them.
there will be some triggers/walls to make sure you'll need friends and you won't want to banish them.
Rolling out the update with the new levels, you'll get disconnected, unfortunately.
SERBIA IS DEAD
OP pulled the plug.
>>268184352
FUCKING NIGGER I WAS DRAWING A PENIS
>>268184352
Well, made it to the end before it died. Was fun.

Let's play during the downtime
>>268184642
The red lines is just debugging stuff.
>>268184732
It's already up.
Still need more ideas for levels :(
Last level seems a bit bugged, sometimes the right yellow gate doesn't disappeaer.
come on you niggers
>>268185915
That's weird, it's linked correctly in the code...
>>268182540
Fuck this level and fuck you for making it
>>268186374
I dunno why, other people were moving right through it, but it was still on my screen and I couldn't get through.
>>268186391
So... more levels like that? Ok.
>>268186504
Maybe it was just a momentary lag?
>>268186623
I'm not sure. I left through the final gate before I saw any changes.
>>268186391
let me help you
why are the click gates so fucking easy? Increase the amount of time it takes for them to start going up if not being clicked on or something.
>>268186964
You mean, decrease?
>>268187146
you know what I mean
>>268187197
Any in particular?
>>268186964
This.
OP should make a gate that requires some actual mashing to get through, which requires like 3 people spam clicking to get through a door.
>>268187297
just in general, really. Any click challenge can be easily done with like zero effort.
>>268187335
>>268187406
Will do that with this one: >>268186834
>>268186391
Casual
Those regen very fast :)
> trapped
>>268188904
You spawn in the red, right?
>>268189423
Yes
I don't see the problem in there. You need to open your gate, go to the top, and wait for someone to get into the level (he'll have to open the red, blue, yellow and cyan ones, then you get to the next level).
>>268189760
I think you can be fast enough to solo this, right?
>>268189905
solo? no. Get to the final stretch solo? yeah
>>268189271
> just helped 4 players get through this level at the cost of my own progress
Please beat the game for me
>>268189905
I don't know, I didn't try...
>>268190010
Thanks man, you were a true pal.
>>268190010
You were a hero.
The blue switch is supposed to be on top of the gate, btw
Do a teleporter maze
>>268190306
I'm going to assume you posted the wrong panels for the gates or something because that looks fucking stupid.
>>268190306
I see, it's easy to get through, but there's a big pile of gold you can't get to?
>>268190579
Yeah, basically
I present you, the most rage inducing level I have ever made.
I generally help a few people through a level, then become a dick and wait for other people to help me
as long as everyone helps at least 1 person we can all get through assuming there's a stream of people coming through
>>268191110

Pretty fun OP.
Make an app and make millions
OP should make it so you can change your cursor color.
>>268195184
>wanting to be a special snowflake
fuck off
Add a level in which there's an optional but extremely difficult route requiring precise team work.
There is a hat for your cursor to wear for that session at the end of it.
>>268195386
but I want to know who my bros were
>KUNT
WHO ARE YOU ANON
Lel, I drew it again.
This is good shit, OP. I could see something like this being used in a class to build teamwork and shit, or as a group psychology thing.
I found a way to teleport through red boxes of rage and 2 man gatesat least on Chrome
>press escape
>click the position you want to teleport
>browser will disable your actual cursor
>press escape to teleport where you clicked
You can't go through solid walls this way, also you can only ever teleport in a straight line from your current position. Let me know if this works on other browsers guys.
>>268194993
Where does the player start?
Just finished it dante must die mode:
-touchpad
-ouse acceleration on
Get on my level.
>>268196532
down at the bottom, noticed the top half was redundant, add a blue wall to get to the end if you make it

>>268197031
Good idea, but I'll refrain from adding new levels while I work on the level editor, so I can make them way faster.

BUGGED MAZE MECHANICS
>>268199912
Looks like you got fucked. All three people can make it through if yellow isn't greedy
No fucking idea what this game is and what I'm doing. I can see there's a red or grey circle around my cursor and that's it.
>>268199912
Stop pressing the red button until someone opens the yellow for you, duh.
>>268200184
>>268199912

it's a maze, the first level is simple
>>268203160
but i can walk through walls
>>268203286
You can't, there's a red thing on your pointer because it's in an invalid location, the real one is to the left, with a grey circle around it.
>>268203286
you need to click, the mouse with the grey circle around it is your real mouse
we made it
We're gonna make it out, right?
I love hanging out with /v/ in stuff like the ending area of this
>>268205391
Why won't the prick in the bottom left corner free you?
>>268205838
Not them, but someone has to come along and lock themselves in the far left room in order to free the two in the yellow switch room.
Do what I do and wait for some to come along and keep the yellow switch at 1 away from opening, then open it fully once someone opens your door and lock yourself in the next room. They have to free you in order to continue, and if you do this till the blue switch room, you're free. As long as people keep coming.
>>268206273
It's doable with just three people if you put two of them on the duty of clicking the buttons already at 0 to keep the doors open while the last one goes around opening new doors, and then when the blue door opens everyone can escape.
>>268206565
Yep. But that only works when people work together.
is OP still here?
Do not cry for me, for I am euphoric.
>>268209232
I did everything I could for you brother, but I am just one man.
See you soon ;-;And no I don't want to yiff you faggot
>>268209407
I knew what I was undertaking.the yiff thing was a joke i swear
alone with the corpses of cursors that once were
Working on the level editor atm. Should be okayish soon.
>>268207731
I am
>>268210164
Are we gonna be able to make the levels ourselves, or is it gonna be a dev-only thing?
>>268210319
I plan to let anyone create levels. There's a quite simple algorithm to calculate if it's solvable, but I'm not sure if I'm gonna automate the whole level review process... maybe ask people that just played it, if it's good... not sure.
FUCK
THIS
LEVEL
srsly, please allow for a reset, or new players to come through to help
>>268210164
You should let us use it and save levels for you to look through and approve.
2nd to last level is truly the best. current last level is very anti climactic.
>>268210436
The whole game is based on a constant flow of players to work. If there's no one coming, they need togit gud
>mfw skipping all the thin paths with right click
>>268167878
Cool game man, fun to see other people's cursors
yaaay! made it to the end!
good game, OP
Idea for game mechanic: "tied" cursors, as in you get paired with someone else, and you can't stray too far away from each other.
Hey, OP, is it possible for you to program moving buttons?
I saved like three squads at this point, I always go back for the last guy and they leave and I get trapped.
>>268211724
Anon, I was going to make it out. Evidence in the fact I did. You didn't need to rush for that blue.
I appreciate you trying to save me, but I didn't need saving at that point. Sometimes you have to know when your sacrifice is necessary, and when it only ends in hurt.
shieeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeet

>>268215943
Winner here, gg no re
>>268215891
Unless people spawn in random quadrants, there's no way out.
So, OP, is there a level like this?
Make sure there are spaces in between the gates for the pathway to the green space so that cursors can stay their time and not be pushed back.
>>268216621
there would need to be at least 2 person that spawn at the same time
The only way to proceed would be if your partner lets you
Imagine the last barrier, where you press the button but your buddy doesn't and he justs fucks off
>>268216621
>>268216014
>>268216096
People spawn in the bottom, they can go left or right but can't go back unless someone holds down the button.
All you need are two cursors co-operating to get to the top.

>>268221489
My idea comes to fruition.
Let the trust testing begin.
>Lost connection to server
Well fuck you too
Okay, here's the (very basic and shitty) editor:
http://cursors.io/?editor
It doesn't have everything yet, and IT DOES NOT SAVE AUTOMATICALLY.
To send me the level you created, press F12 to open the javascript console, type "generateCode();", then hit enter. Copy and paste the code that it gave you to http://pastie.org/ and I'll test it.
Controls:
Click+drag: Draw a wall (red walls are removed by red clickers, etc.)
A: Previous color
S: Next color
B: Add clicker of current color
N: Add cursor counter of current color
O: Change spawn point
W: Add win area
Z: Remove last object
The "ESR" color is a special one that erases others.
>>268221961
Thanks OP, I'll have some fun with this.
>>268221880
Sorry, I was changing some stuff, should work now.
>>268221961
By the way, walls don't render the same in the editor as game, but it should be good enough.
pls help, I'm stuck :C
OP you should put level numbers on each board so we can tell how far we are, or tell people what we're stuck on.
>>268224613
The levels are shuffled when the server is restarted, so it'd be kinda weird when it changes...
>>268224841
Maybe level names then?
>>268225429
Uhh... I'm not really creative. It's not a priority for me at the moment.
FINALLY GOT TO THE END
IT ONLY TOOK ME 17 TABS

How about making so the writing stays a bit longer? People are making drawings but it vanishes way too quick to get anything good done
>>268225837

>>268167878
Is possible to make an anti mouse key feature?
>>268227758
no fuck you

>Lost connection to server
fuck yeah another update
Idea man behind >>268221489 here
http://pastebin.com/7bJECcB0
The basic idea is that you either take a long time to get to the end, or chose to lock yourself in the top right to help everyone else until someone is kind enough to let you out.
The 10s are supposed to be 1s but I don't think that's an editor feature yet.
>>268228120
Interesting, will add that.
Also, I'll have to restart the server once more to fix a bug.
ded?
Server went down or something?
>>268228939
I'm so fucking blind, thanks.
shit OP you are keeping me awake
thank you for not doing this on a week day
does it automatically reconnect or do i have to keep mashing F5?
>>268229214

But nobody tries. I'm so lonely.
There needs to be a way to complete a level once you help everyone else finish.
Or make every level be completable solo except just make it really hard and have the colours unlock sections that make finishing easier in a group.
It's kind of bullshit how the first 5 levels all require multiple people. At least the colours on timers make sense and can be completed solo if you really tried.
