BitBox

BitBox is a game prototype demonstrating a game mechanic in which the games resolution is tied to the players heath. Once the players health drops low enough, the resolution will drop from 64x64 to 32x32 (the resolution will be 8x8 by the time the player dies). Also, the players health decreases over time, and must be replenished by collecting coins. This, combined with the dynamic resolution, creates an element of challenge and brings a sense of panic as the players vision deteriorates.
