Error 404: Game... Found?!

How to play:

Controls:

Jump: [SPACEBAR]
Change direction: [K]

Installing:

Install the unpacked chrome extension  to have the game start up when you get a 404 error (yeah it can be a little annoying but it opens up in a new tab and you can simply close that). You can always deactivate the chrome extension later lol.

Install instructions:

Decompress the zip file that comes with the download. Inside of it there should be a "manifest.json" and a "background.js" files.
To install the chrome extension you need to open chrome and in the OmniBox (url input bar) type "chrome://extensions". Enable developer mode and click the "Load Unpacked Extension" button. You will be asked to select a folder: select the one with the "manifest.json" and "background.js" files that was originally compressed.

Motive:

This little game was made in 6:44 hours (404 minutes) along with a Google Chrome extension that loads the game's page whenever a web server responds with a 404 Error (page not found). It was a way of celebrating 400+ (404) subscribers to my YouTube channel.

I kind of overestimated how short would 404 minutes be: this was my first time making a game in so short of a time limit and, looking back, I could have probably went for something a bit more complex. Yet, I am happy with it and it makes for a reasonable small web game.
