Compression algorithms aren't real
A downloadable game
Compression algorithms aren't real. It's all done by tiny wizards in your files. In this game you are a tiny wizard.
Some knowledge about Lua and the LÖVE framework could help a lot, but the game is probably beatable without such knowledge. This is only a tutorial level made for the 2024 LÖVE game jam. If there's enough interest I can turn it into a full game.
My high score is -23, feel free to drop your high score in the comments or in the LÖVE discord :)

This is a cool little puzzle. I got a high score (low score?) of -80, but there was not much left of the program. Don't press space...
Do you have ideas for further levels? Presumably you want the player to keep a functioning program, right?
Wow I only just saw this and all the other comments, and yes I had some ideas where you would be stuck somewhere but could remove the collision detection code to just phase through the walls. Other than that not many ideas, but I'm open to any.
