Qix reshaped

Spherical Qix
A browser game made in HTML5

I dabbled around some times ago with the idea of Qix, a game where you go around tracing closed lines on a blank surface to reveal the undelying image. I could image it being kind of a revolutionary concept at the time and a technical feat to booth.

Today, it's only a nice opportunity to impose a twist on it, projecting the once flat play field on a rounder shape with some nice shading. The original series went on to spawn some "sexy" clones to keep gamers interested, my remake will for now stop short of it ;)

In-game interface is minimal at best, when I'll be able to, I'll be back to polish and add some more mechanics like a life count and a boss enemy.

This project is on hold for a bit and in a sort of draft state, since I have other things to work on.
