A drawing of the Flickgame logo sits atop a bright pink banner, rendered as an ordered grid of colored blocks. The artwork encodes layered visual elements: a thick, dark tree-like structure with a green canopy, a red flag shape, and a small yellow star, all set against a pink background with a white border. The visualization is built from the game’s exported data, a sequence of run-length encoded color values parsed into rectangular cells on a canvas. The code uses the Canvas API to draw each block according to the encoded `"0"`, `"5"`, `"a"`, and other color codes from the source file.

flickgame

flickgame is a compact, self-contained visualization that recreates the classic game of "Flick" on an HTML canvas. The source file encodes the entire game board—a 168×62 grid of cells—as a run-length encoded string, where numbers indicate repeated cell states and letters represent colors (e.g., `0` for background, `e` for a dark fill, `a` for a lighter fill, `d` and `1` for drawing strokes). The visualization decodes this compressed data to render a pixel-art scene of a stylized character, with each canvas row drawn sequentially. The piece demonstrates how a simple textual format can be transformed into a visual, interactive game interface, referencing the original Flickgame. The encoding highlights the efficiency of run-length representation for grid-based graphics.

flickgame

This example visualizes the drawing mechanics of the game Flickgame by reconstructing its canvas state from a serialized log of run-length encoded commands. Each command—a color token paired with a run length—is decoded and rendered as colored pixels on a grid, using a palette keyed by digits (e.g., "0" for background, "1", "8", "9", "a", "d", "e" for distinct colors). The sequential playback of these commands animates the canvas, revealing how the game’s simple drawing interactions produce a recognizable character sprite. The visualization highlights the compactness of the encoding scheme and the step-by-step construction of the image.

flickgame

This example encodes a playable canvas game as a data file, using run-length encoded pixel colors to recreate the Flickgame logo. The visualization parses the `game.txt` gist, which contains paired numbers representing color codes and run lengths, and decodes them into a bitmap displayed on an HTML5 canvas. Clicking on the canvas triggers a simple interactive flicking mechanic, linking the static data representation to the original game’s playful interface.

This example renders a pixel-art animation of the Flickgame logo from a compact RLE-encoded dataset stored in a text file. The visualization decodes run-length pairs of canvas commands (drawing, erasing, and color changes) to reconstruct and animate a sequence of frames, showing a hand-drawn creature that gradually appears, blinks, and then dissolves. The piece highlights how a minimal, text-based format can drive playful, frame-by-frame canvas graphics in the browser.
