[Announcement] MakeCode Arcade Mini Game Jam #25 - Cursed Jam Part 2!

Hey richard are we allowed to use something like a platformer template to start work or not?

my game shall cause hell

This is my submission the 5 rules are as follows

  1. The game is very twisted and will try kill you in the most annoying ways possible
  2. jumps are delayed
  3. you start with 4 hearts and lose a heart every ten seconds, to regenerate hearts you will have to overlap with the red tiles in the start of level 2 and press B, after pressing B you will be teleported to a randomized maze which on completion grants you 5 hearts
  4. coins are Hard to get and have a specific way of collection
  5. must keep moving with a break of 1 second

I have verified it and it is possible you just need luck skill and focus

everyones a winner :grinning:

There are 2 types of Game Jam: Mini Game Jam, and Gam Jam. If you want the title, then you need to win the Gam Jam. If you win the Game Jam, you will get prizes, but there is no prize for the Mini Game Jam.

Thats only for normal game jams where if you get first, second, or third place you get the title, in mini game jams you get no title and is only for fun and for the competitive spirit!

I BEAT IT!! YEA!!!
This is a really cool idea!
I wish it told me what the eyes meant at the start, but the menu animation is so… awesome…
Also that lil raycasting trick where you turn around and the tilemap behind you changes was a neat little detail I LOVE to see in games!

Do you ‘recognize’ anyone there?

My holy submission:

All levels have been playtested and won. All music was composed by myself with the intent of being slightly catchy and rather annoying. Try to get to level 4, which is the last (and best) level.
