Did you work in a team?
Just me! I made it very quick after work one night, have had the idea for a while.

Was the resolution a challenge?
Haha, well in the case of my game, the resolution was sort of the entire concept, so yeah, I'd say it was a bit of a design challenge :) but an enjoyable one.

What did you learn?
Hmm... I don't know if I learned too much making this, but I did enjoy seeing that the idea worked out pretty much as planned. It's made me want to add some slightly larger game modes in the future.

Why does it register when you release instead of press the mouse? Still good game tho

WOOHOO I finally made that square flash.

This is the gamejam equivalent of ready-made art.  It belongs in a fancy gaming museum.

Nope! My reaction times are too slow to win this game :D

Good job, you are the winner.

I can't believe someone went and actually did it. You are insane. I have no idea how to rate graphics so I'm putting 5 :')

Is very much a game and has graphics. This is the first 1pixel game I have played

The best game since! I cannot stop playing. The way that the square changes color is just so satisfying. I crave more one-pixel games

Ha - great use of a single pixel!

Love the graphics, cannot deal with the gameplay. this isn't even a reaction game it's a guessing game. I just have to hope I predict when the thing will flash. oh my gosh. It's a fun concept but there's gotta be something different you could do with 1 pixel. Good job finishing a game anyway.  :)

I really like the concept and I like what you were able to do with just one single pixel. I wish there was some audio for when you won or when the pixel changed colors.
