One Dimensional Quest is an experimental game. The premise is that the entire game is played out in a single dimension, that is. There is no height, no depth. Length only. (final destination!)

The keys are
Up arrow: Jump
Left arrow: Move left
Right arrow: Move right

You play as the hero, the blue bar. Your goal in the game is to collect 8 leprechauns, the green bars, and return them to your home.

But alas, the way to the leprechauns are filled with peril. There are lava pits, red bars. Eeevil rogues, orange bars, boxes, yellow bars, and teleports, purple bars.

Your only defence against all these dangers are that you can jump for a short time to avoid them, but that in itself will not be enough to complete your quest.

Okay okay, you got me. The game actually got height as you can plainly see. Well I didn't want anyone to strain their eyes looking at the infinitely thin line representing the game so it pretty much ended up like this.

The music loop is from flashkit. Ghosts by Mark.

Enjoy!

I liked the idea of making a one dimensional game, sadly, this had more than one dimension :C

I do though, like other people, think you should've made the flash height just one pixel for the sake of the integrity of your idea.

It was pretty original, but not really a whole lot of fun. Not a bad idea, though.

It's incredibly original. Wonderful how I still had the feeling I was jumping lava and was rolling logs even though they were just colored lines! Incredible!
