Description
_CRAWL_ is a series of 512 unique artworks, each generated from a Python-code system authored by Travess Smalley. Each artwork is a “level” to be explored, and includes different patterns, colors, and textures. The core of each artwork is a map image, but the artwork is also the way the image is revealed to the viewer through Smalley’s custom-built explorer software. Viewers can sit back and watch the software perform itself, or they can navigate directly with a keyboard. While exploring, different colors within the image trigger different events. Each level has a door icon, as well as other features to discover — all of which reveal new ways to explore.<br><br>Each _CRAWL_ artwork is one “level.” If you collect multiple _CRAWL_ artworks, they can be merged into a new artwork that contains all the levels in your collection. For instance, if 24 individual levels are collected, those artworks can be combined into a unique 1/1 software artwork featuring all 24 levels, and the original single-layer artworks are burned. After a merge, icons embedded into each level map enable the collector to move between levels.<br><br>Mouse Instructions:<br><br>Left Click and Hold - Move towards the cursor direction<br><br>Release Left Click - Stop moving<br><br>Left Click on Buttons to Trigger Action<br><br>Keyboard instructions:<br><br>W \| Arrow Up - Move Up<br><br>A \| Arrow Left - Move Left<br><br>S \| Arrow Down - Move Down<br><br>D \| Arrow Right - Move Right<br><br>Hold Shift - Precision Movement Mode<br><br>\+ \- Zoom In (20x)<br><br>\- \- Zoom Out (4x) - (3x to 1x Unlocked)<br><br>G - Show Map<br><br>? \- Show Info<br><br>T - Warp (Unlocked)<br><br>R - Create Spawn (Unlocked)<br><br>U - Create Worm (Unlocked)<br><br>\[ \- Ascend Level (Unlocked in Multi Level)<br><br>\] \- Descend Level (Unlocked in Multi Level)<br><br>Touch Instructions:<br><br>Touch and Hold - Move towards the touch direction<br><br>Release Touch - Stop moving<br><br>Touch Buttons to Trigger Action
