From the Author:

TWITCH is a series of minimal games within small Chrome windows. How fast can you solve them all? Each game only responds to clicking; mouse position and keyboard are ignored.

Can you stay on the perilous belt? Can you accurately aim the booming cannon? Can you navigate through the electric pyramids? Can you solve the eerie labyrinth?

Technology:

Processing.js, Javascript

It's "you're", not "your". and "i" should be "I".

Did I mention YOU'RE an idiot?

Good. A few things: when I have more than 5 of the open at once, they flicker. Also, this may just be the challenge, but I don't see any way to win the one with the yellow triangles; there doesn't appear to be an ending hoop.

this was fun, but the windows weren't sized right for me. i had to resize them all in order to see the exits and stuff.

and it didn't tell me a score. when i beat the last one there was the cool fireworks thing, but no numbers even when i resized.

O.k., So maybe I am a tard, but I can't figure out the cannon. I have even clicked every 1/2 degree, in case the range is very, very small. I even used a straight edge to make sure it was lined up. What is the trick? I am sad that I can't figure it out,....

Hey this is so great! :) I have a question though. Every game opens in a different window. In the first window there is a counter that stops when you finish the last game. But how can the first window know what happened in the last window? The way I understand it, Chrome was built so that one tab cannot interact with the others...

Reply to this comment
By Rainfly_X on May 31, 2009

A window can interact with any windows that it has spawned. If my site makes a popup, it can communicate with that popup, but not your mail client in the other tab.
