Super Binary Man

Play the very early alpha version here.

What is it?

Super Binary Man, is a platformer arcade game with a binary twist. I hope to create a game that will help learning to count in binary fun and challenging. I'm currently developing this game and game framework as I'm studying HTML5 technologies. I'm hoping that this game will be the first of many educational games.

I got the idea for it while watching a video of a computer science course, where a binary sequence was represented by a series of light bulbs, and students volunteered to switch on the right ones to add up to a number chosen by a teacher. It seemed like it was pretty fun and I had to make a game about it.

How to contribute?

You can leave a comment with ideas on how I could improve the game. You could contribute graphics ( I'm a terrible artist ). You could discover bugs and open issues for them in github. Of course you could join me in writing the game itself and help me make it more fun.
