Short Introduction:

Works online, you may need the Unity Web Player version 2.6.1

Otherwise the windows standalone is included in the download... run it at 800 X 600. (It does run slightly smoother as a standalone)

This is provided in the state it was at the GGJ deadline. There are some minor glitches, but it is complete and playable.

Press Tilda (if you have one).

Brief Play Description: 

Press Tilda plays like a platformer until you press tilda. Then you can play as the creator of your own, setting objects on fire, pushing them, forcing them to attack each other and swapping positions. This creates simple puzzles and interesting gameplay opportunities, such teleporting potplants to destroy your enemies or luring robots onto spiky traps of death.

While there are a few minor glitches, the game is complete and playable and provided in the state it had reached by the end of the GGJ 2010.

Unity Web Player for IE doesn't like Backspace!

Argh. Stupid IE interprets "backspace" as "go back." So, if you typo and hit backspace in game you... end up coming back to this page. Yes, you can run not in a browser but that's really annoying that Unity doesn't take focus for all input.
