True, true. Except for that Short Fuse doesn’t have the switch on its back.

Okay, I might not release the game at all. Many parts are inspired by another Makecode game: Chi-Chi. I think that the developer of that game may be mad that I took a lot of inspiration from that game, so I don’t know. I might not release it at all.

I think that as long as you state that it’s heavily inspired/copied from another game, it should be fine, just credit the other game!

WOAH WOAH I did not mean to make a debate. I just said that it looked similar.

Oh it’s not just the fact that they look similar, some gameplay parts are similar too, but I’ll just give credits to the other game.

Maybe you can add some kind of explosive double jump that damages enemies around to differentiate this game and that other game?

Actually, my game does have something like that! You can place bombs to break stuff, kill enemies, or even act as a boost for a double jump!
