Chrome World Wide Maze
http://chrome.com/maze/
Meet the World Wide Maze, a Google Chrome experiment. I stumbled upon it while looking about through the internet, and it is most likely the coolest thing in existence at time of posting. The program takes any website in the world, and converts it into an incredibly varied Super Monkey Ball-ish maze, with different planes connected by green pathways. The puzzle uses images, links, text, and whatever else may appear on the site to create these platforms. And possibly the coolest part? Using the link of browser pages between a mobile device's Chrome app and your PC's Chrome browser, you control the ball rolling through the map... with the device. You can also use a keyboard if you don't have a smartphone. The game requires nothing and is completely free: you technically don't even need Google Chrome, although you are restricted to the keyboard. So, just for kicks, I tried going into UPN's puzzle world. And I was greeted by this. Spoiler: show The tornado-ish thing on the right is your goal. Reaching that point will complete the level. I went through it, and it's surprisingly responsive for a game that relies on Wi-Fi heavily. My final score was 1930 points on UPN, which I thought was quite good, and I expected to be the lone person to have attempted UPN... but instead, some crazy people got super-high scores. WHO ARE YOU PEOPLE AND WHAT ARE YOU DOING ON UPN So, what'cha guys think? |

Aww, that seems cool and all but it requires Chrome to play, I don't like having more than one browser on my computer, and I use Firefox.
I wonder why Lindz got her avatar to show up enormously not once but twice! She doesn't post nearly as much as she used to, and given that it's showing Kuno's most recent avatar (not even half a year old), you know those images had to have been scraped recently. Weird. I'd think if it was by posting activity or online activity it'd be other people (*cough*) and if it were strictly by rank then Lindz wouldn't appear more often than Kuno. lol cool @ how you can see bbb's, Daisy's, and Loki's names in the users online field.

There's a Chrome app.
And Talon, you still can use it without Chrome. You're restricted to the keyboard, but seeing all of the stuff as a puzzle is still worth it. There's little text in the fine print. And the site in question is the actual UPN site, not the forums. Here. |
