Oliver & the Basilisks

@CaptC: That's a last-minute bug. Player name was remembered once upon a time, but I think I broke it when implementing the sponsor's APIs. I'll fix it tonight.

Who the heck is Oliver? Once I enter my name, remember it, please.

(AUTHOR COMMENT): Interesting. I didn't anticipate that people would want a "continue" feature... it really isn't that kind of game. I think it would get much more boring if you could continue indefinitely, as there isn't a plot progression to work through; it'd be like playing Tetris if the screen just got cleared every time you got to the top and you could keep going. There's no end to it; you just keep going until you die, and you try to get the highest score possible. I'm an old fart (31 now), so I'm nostalgic for the old days of games that were about high scores, rather than about completion.

@air139: As I said in the description, the basic mechanic is from "Robots" which is one of the oldest computer games there is; look it up on Wikipedia. I'm sure there are lots of open source versions. However, Oliver adds a lot to that game; the original would be like Oliver on Simple mode, but with unlimited teleports, no rewards for rapid completion, etc., and no Disintegrate.

I agree, starting from level 1 every time gets old. At least put in check points so you can start from there. Otherwise, pretty cool. 3.5/5

Pretty good game, but gets boring as you have to start from lvl1 every time. Some clarification - you can make piles of rubble from making 2 basiliks collide, and afterwards any single basiliks that walk into them will die. Making piles is the best way (best score), the fewest piles the better (-20 per pile). You get 1 disintegrate every level, max1, and you get a new fire scroll every level, I got to 5 fire scrolls, probably you can get more.
