For my project I ended up making a 1D game based on the idea of a number line, where all the action takes place on a single axis (here's a link if you want to try it: https://quid314.itch.io/number-line-runner) Part of the idea came from seeing animations of multiplication and division being represented by a number line stretching and compressing, but I mostly figured no one else would think to limit their game like that.
Course I was wrong and there were definitely people who did that, so if anyone sees this and made or played other one dimensional games, let me know, I'd love to see how other people got around that limitation. I'd also just like to hear about unique or limiting "only one" games in general, so feel free to share those too if you don't know any that went with one dimensions specifically.
