Here’s my submission:

This was a project I started around the beginning of the year. I had the idea for a small robot who helps the planet, kind of like WALL-e if you know what I’m talking about.
The game fit perfect for this mini jam, but all it was at the time was just a little robot walking around the screen; no story at all to its name.

I didn’t have enough time to make it a full-blown game, but I hope you guys enjoy playing the demo version of “Red Robot the game”!

Instructions (spoilers ahead)
  1. Go to the plant on the right and hold “B” to scan the plant.

  2. Once scanned, head for the left to find the bucket on the hill.

  3. Once you have the bucket, go all the way right to reach the pond to collect water.

  4. Head back to the plant and press “B” again to water the plant.

Thank you!

Presenting…

:cowboy_hat_face: DUCKRUN!!! :duck:

It is a very nostalgy (wait, is that a word?) game! You are a duck, run away from the hunter!

Note: You must press Menu (or the “~” key) to “insert the quarter".”

Ok…so here is the link!

DUCKY RUN RUN RUN R-

How it is related to outsideness (again, probably NOT A WORD.)

It takes place in a forest. :deciduous_tree:

Thanks for playing!

My high score!

My high score is 175.

mine is 500, but it’s very easy to get to the binary limit. I got board because I was just staying in one spot the whole time (almost)

You should try and use the https://github.com/jwunderl/arcade-tilemap-a-star extension so the hunter doesn’t get stuck on the walls. This way he can find the best way to hunt you down!

The Involuntary Hike

In this game, I figured out how to make a different camera engine, making it so the camera would center slightly in front of the character. Anyways, have fun!

Hey! Hey YOU! Yeah you! I found some games for you:
This first game took me about the entire month to create, probably due to major procrastination lol
Try and get all the endings! (There’s 4)

The original second game I made actually had a huge bug in it that was very unfixable, so I made you this beauty of a game instead (which I must say is far better than the buggy one):

Enyoy :man_mage:

“Finished” my game
The Diego series is technically back, but I had quite a few development set backs this month. I lost alot of time and ended up really only having a little over 2 work weeks to work on it. Either way, however, I put way too much effort it to just trash the full project so this is it. There quite a few unfinished graphics and the game engine was cut so it’s a highly bare bones. Won’t be around for awhile, have some things to figure out. (You’ll probably wanna watch the intro since it’s basically all i finished :skull: )

Hope you enjoy :+1:
(The game will prob be continued)

This is @EugeneRedwing8 ‘s submission. His internet is not working.

Backslash to restart, C to show console.

He didn’t have much time, so there’s no beginning cutscene or boss music.

Some backstory:

This project continues Big Battle.

After defeating Red, Green is blasted out of the Tower and into this forest.
