It’s insane how much information you can communicate in 0-D using color, brightness, and flickering. It might also be possible to “tint” colors in order to communicate stuff like status effects (for example: a health system where you can take multiple hits from the bear, but every time you get hit your screen becomes progressively more red, thus making the actual colors harder to discern), as long as the game objects have well defined colors on their own, which your game does.
i think it would be 1d instead 0d which is nothing because we are 3d yet we see 2d and 2d see 1d just a line with differenent colors like this but more so 1d would see just a dot that changes
There’s a can-do/should-do line somewhere… How will a colorblind individual manage this game? Or one enhanced with tints? Yes, in a standup full blown game use colors and tints to help convey what’s happening, when and as appropriate… but making it the ONLY clue about what will help or roadblock you? NO.
@@Sleepyperso 2D images are called 2D because of their width and height (dimensions). A line has only a width so it’s got 1D. A point has nothing so it’s 0D. This game is a 2D game (the map clearly has a width and a height), but is presented to us as a point. How something is represented has no bearing on it’s internal dimensionality. 2D and 3D (and even 4D and beyond) objects are all commonly displayed to us in 2D. Just because what we’re observing is 0D does not mean the structure behind it is 1D.
This is one of the most creative games I've seen. In a world with AAA titles fumbling around with the same ideas and cookie cutter mechanics, this game stands out.
It's not really 1D. First of all, it has a 2D map; it just displays it as one pixel. You might call it 0D for being displayed as a pixel, you might call it 2D because of the map, or you might call it 2D since ultimately it's being displayed on a 2D screen. But you wouldn't call it 1D since that would be a line of which this game has none. Unless you're saying it's 1D since time is a dimension. But even then, people don't usually count time as a dimension since it's not spatial. No. I'm not fun at parties. Have a nice day.
@@kolosso305 Oh yeah, I meant to say 0D, because 1D would be a line, my brain kinda shut down while typing. You could even say thats the projection of a 1D character vision
@@kolosso305 also if you’re counting time you might as well count color as at least one dimension as well. Although how many dimensions color counts for exactly is an interesting question on it’s own.
The concepts, editing, and most importantly humor made in this video shows your potential of being an amazing youtube creator. Subscribed, and Keep it up! :D
The deluxe edition will contain... A SECOND PIXEL! That's 100% more game! But in all seriousness, this is really neat; I love these self-imposed programming challenges. Keep it up!
Frankly the manner in which you wrap the conclusion of the video to the beginning and communicated the rules effectively with visuals to the point I understood the game when shown the final product was masterful.
From the production quality and amount of substance in this video, I never would have guessed it was from a small creator! Very professional, I loved it
Great video! All of the jokes landed, delivery and your voice acting was great, script was funny and entertaining and the editing had a lot of funny visuals!
An absolutely wonderful video, I'm quite impressed with how you did it! I honestly enjoyed the video, and I can't wait to see what else you do! keep up the great work! And, thank you for making me laugh, it's quite rare for that to happen!
Pretty cool idea and impressive implementation of the concept. I really love the constraints of UI/UX, having only one pixel to show information is one hell of a constraint
I think you could have made a pretty cool game with sound and one pixel and if it was large enough on the screen some medically blind people could actually see the shades, I know this because quite a few blind people can see shades of colors but it’s basically a blob of in deciferable nonsense where the colors blend till you can’t see 😅 I think a bright screen with just a color would make the blending take less effect and make their vision a consistent color and you can add dynamic sound and give that group of people who are blind but can “see” color an experience they could never have before, and it could be a actually fun game to play 😅 and give if some white blurry shading but not much to make it feel like the character you play is blind for those who are not blind to understand it better, I hope you see this and give it a try 😅
Well I'm just going to have to comment before the rush. The production quality on this video is amazing. Either this guy has done something similar before, or it's not his first channel, or he's a genius.
This video is an opportunity to skyrocket your channels audience numbers. IT already did. And after seeing the video as the first from your channel, you seem to deserve it. Good luck, may the algorythm be with you.
Well, you could convey way more information with using RGB color space as a multidimensional space, rather than a binary, which would make larger maps more playable. For example, presence of water wouldn't be communicated in a "water, not water" fashion, but if you got close to water, the pixel would shift hue in B axis. G and B communicate the landscape, and R is the bear maybe?
It was harder to distinguish color change than I thought, which is why I ended up reworking and saturating the colors. For ease of play less colors is probably better, but there's definitely more that's possible, it might just be difficult to distinguish. In the end, my game ended up being more about memorization and recollection of your steps.
@@VerilyFine Yeah it is pretty true... jpg's compression algorithm is based on our weaker perception of color frequency (the change of color, from one pixel to the next). The chromatic channel receives more compression than luminesce.
3:12 your song choice here is so perfect this was the most advance piece Iearned to play when I was forced to take piano lessons so it always puts in me in a reflective mood
This is incredible and extremely well-edited - I saw an earlier video and didn't subscribe bc I assumed you were already a huge channel and any great vids would percolate to me. No idea how you don't have easily 100k, but I have now rectified that error and subscribed :D
Hey man im very very sure you will get popular and reach 1m subs your vids deserve far more than what you get. Late or quick you will get the attention. Goodluck on your journey
Damn, man, that's impressive. Like I'm not playing the game because it looks like a chore to play, but very impressive work none-tge-less, I can't wait for the any% Speedrun where you somehow drown the bear.

He really made a 0D game, incredible. It would be cool if new pixels were unlocked as the player progresses through the game
maybe you could unlock the boat at the end and see the chiropractor to beat the game instead of a score system

Amazing video and concept! I will be following your career with great interest...

I played the game a little, it already feels like a horror game
I didn't see it that way, but now that you say it, wow it basically is! In testing and conception I was so unafraid of the bear I didn't notice.
This feels like a text-based game in a visual format.
Pretty cool idea and impressive implementation of the concept.
