hahaha, we’re going to play all of them, no worries!

…but some might spill over on to Monday’s stream.

@MrAhmedGaming I think we’ll be getting to most of the games from your class on Monday’s livestream. I’ll let you know once we’ve done Friday’s stream!

Here’s a little multiplayer game I made based on a minigame from Super Mario Party! The game starts out as single player, but you can add up to 3 more players by pressing the player’s controls. The whole goal is to run away from a hungry skeleton and be the first to reach the end (or the last one to die… :skull:).

Enjoy! :slight_smile:

@richard Im super sorry my game didnt work for the unlock next weapon (and in other ways) but If I post an updated version will you play it? (No it should not count towards that game jam that is cheating)

@richard why the newer live videos on the YouTube channel all titled “Making an extension in Makecode Arcade”? It made it annoying to find last month’s mini game jam video. :pleading_face:

Let the creator of scary gary know that the game is loved by the forum, and that they should put it on itch.io, gamejolt, or newgrounds.
