Play the original game 0PLAYER here: https://plus.cerisetalis.com/0PLAYER/

0.5players is a an unofficial interactive version of 0PLAYER. It's full of spoilers, and you shouldn't play this before finishing 0PLAYER. This is meant as post-game content.

(If you're put off by the original game being just a static image, rest assured that you would enjoy the interactive version even less than staring at the static image.)

I made this just to learn some gamedev (and because I got briefly obsessed with that game). The learning was a success! The original 2d version (commit beb5275) was made in 2 days, then it took a while to prettify it to the current state.

Game controls:

• middle-mouse-button + drag to pan (or ctrl + mouse drag)
• mouse wheel to zoom
• mouse click to select
• wasd or arrows to move
• can also drag tiles with the mouse
• z to undo, x to redo

Additional controls:

Record/replay:

• ctrl+digit (ctrl+0 .. ctrl+9) to start recording a macro (while recording, redo is not allowed; also, I wouldn't be surprised if something like undo during animation breaks recording, I haven't checked)
• ctrl+digit again to stop recording and save all 10 macros to file "replays.bin"; it's loaded on startup automatically
• digit to replay a previous recording; it just repeats the inputs, so if you start from a different state, it'll probably do nonsense moves and give up early
• if there's already a macro on that digit, ctrl+digits clears it; ctrl+shift+digit to append to it instead
• weird tech: you can replay a macro while recording another macro; this way you can concatenate multiple macros together, e.g. record a playthrough in a few segments, then merge them into one macro later
• the default "replays.bin" file included with the game has a full playthrough as macro 0; just press 0 and have the whole game spoiled even more than it was before!

Level editor:

• F10 to toggle level editor
• click a tile in palette on the right to select it (left column is movable tiles, right column is floor/walls/triggers)
• or press 'q' while hovering over a tile in the world to copy it
• click or drag in the world to place selected/copied tile
• hold right mouse button and drag to weld tiles together
• wasd to toggle wires on the cell under the cursor
• j for bridge wires, k for conductive surface, o for circle, p to toggle power on the circle
• ctrl + hold right mouse button and drag to place doors
• F5 to save the map to file "save.bin"; move it "assets/level.bin" to make it load on startup
• F9 to load from "save.bin" (if exists) or "assets/level.bin"
• alt+r to reset everything to a small empty map
• alt+arrow keys to resize the map

Misc:

• '[' for animation debug mode, where tile movement animation is stalled, and you can advance it step by step by pressing ']'
