Yes! Richard downloads a copy at the end so you can’t change it anymore, but you can update the link all the way until the deadline!

I play a monster hunting game where you hunt bizarre creatures with incredible weapons… I’m not telling you what the game is though, you have to guess.

Nice idea, I might use it.

I like this one! Reminds me of Olmec from Spelunky Remaster edition, really good times! Would be cool if it was a boss fight like that where you defeat the Orange Square by having him destroy the map in a specific way to have it meet it’s own demise!

Wouldn’t that be like the final bowser boss fight from Mario Bros 3?


I still plan to use MakeCode’s interpretation of Python from time to time.

I got a buncha games!

Big Dino is a game where you have to shoot and avoid obstacles and get big… by shooting obstacles. Eat apples to heal yourself. The game is kinda broken, as I’m fixing on that. Enjoy the game!

This is my personal fav. SkyWars is a game where you have to shoot bogey planes, be big and be the last one standing. To get big you have to shoot the planes. This is also multiplayer, so have fun!
Credits to @AbstractDesigner (CyberSpace) and @InvalidProject (Altor Reprise) for their songs!

And here are some silly games I made, just for fun! :grin:

I think this counts, not only is it a big game but it has some pretty big enemies. I’ve been working on this off and on for a year or two and I wanna show it off, I submitted it for the pirate jam like 2 summers ago and thought I would show off how it’s come.

There are two bosses you fight if the game doesn’t crash.

WASD/stick - movement

A - shoot/reload

B - amulet (unlocked after first boss)

Just saying, I’m still watching and playing!

Hey!! I saw that you mentioned me for providing music, using Altor Reprise! Sadly, I don’t think you read the important thing I said on that particular post–Altor Reprise is not Free-Use! You can use it in this case, but please be mindful!

Oh, Dang It I’m so sorry, I just did not see/notice that at all! I’ll be careful next time!

Update on SkyWars

Unfortunately, I had to change the music due to the old song not being for free use. The new song is still by @InvalidProject, called Dynamical. Have fun on Skywars!

Yo Ho Ho Ho Matey! This is a great Boomer Shooter and an Old Salt Sea Dog like me really enjoyed this Landlubber’s treasure of a game. Pirate wording asides, the animations in this game were great and the Retro Pirate music was an amazing touch to this game, hoping that there could be a Minimap though as It was a little hard to keep track of my location in world 2 and I also found the game sometimes crashing when I proceeded levels. Great game otherwise though!

Yeah, like Bowser from Super Mario! I just used Olmec instead because I enjoyed that fight a lot more than Bowser in Mario Bros 3.
