I had another big and small idea.

The big one is: Instead of a random card, the HIT ME is a timeable roulette. Sorted by value, so it's all the 2s, the 3s, ect... Spinning fast enough that hitting a value is easy, but hitting a suit is hard. Flushes essentially stay 1/4, but straights are slow and guaranteed. Four of a kinds get harder over time, as they get removed. Royal flushes mean waiting for a full rotation, and taking the 1/4 chance on suit.

The small one is: When you place a card in your hand, the old one goes to your 'inventory'. That way you can rearrange your hand, and you can't accidentally remove a card.

It crashes as soon as you see 'click to start the demo'.

I forgot a probably less controversial change- make clubs and diamonds different colors for clarity, like Baltro.

It's a really solid arcade game with great graphics and I don't want to detract from that, but you asked for advice and I had an idea:

Instead of just building a hand, you need to reach a chip threshold, and every hand you make multiplies your banked chips. 

That gives you a reason to collect chips and build better hands even if you don't care about score. And you get the extra decision-making of whether it's faster to grind chips or make a better hand.

 I think it's good flavor-wise too; you play poker to win chips.

Sorry, that was completely my bad. No hard feelings.

I have a small hobby project going on: https://itch.io/t/3699133/lfsall-positionsgamemaker-studiounpaid

It's a ~15 minute caveman themed 2d platformer. There's a design doc in the link . If you're interested, join the Discord server and send an introduction.

Okay! It looks like you specialize in larger, detailed pieces. If you're willing to do smaller sprite work, you can start right away. If not, there's things like between-level still frames and promo material, but you'll have to wait for the finalized designs on everything. If either of those are okay, you can join the Discord and send an introduction.

Okay! Join the Discord and introduce yourself in #introductions. 

I have a prototype for a simple platformer, and want a team to help finish it. I'm a hobbyist solo-dev looking to practice game directing and development with a group. As a practice project, I'm hoping for volunteers, and will take inexperienced people.

The game is a 2d platformer about a caveman, with a limited moveset and a focus on level gimmicks.

I plan to recruit people until May 1st. Artists, composers, level designers, coders, writers, and anyone else who's interested. Any necessary areas that go unfilled, I'll personally handle. 

Hoping to have it completed by June. It will be released for free on Itch.

A playthrough of the current build: https://youtu.be/iqm4v9a9lxs

There's not much at the moment, but I like the concept! A combination of Slay the Spire and Megaman Battle Network, but you can see how the comedy theme gives room for new design. Stuff like callbacks dealing more damage if repeated, or brick jokes that deal damage in 2 turns.

The .pck file is missing.

It's very interesting! A sort of Dwarf Fortress meets DOTA. I think something's wrong with stockpiles, though. I can only build one, and then new ones must be touching the original, which really limits how far you can play.

I'm not sure if there's another way you want it sent, but here's the contents:

I can't get the fade to black to happen, even on new playthroughs.

Can I have a hint? I'm at 41 unique pictures, with the complete 'set'.

Is there anything after the fourth anchor?

It's a cute! I didn't realize I had to shoot the stem at first. It kinda reminds me of a clicker game.

It takes way too long for the ball to stop rolling. Some extra friction or being able to swing from a higher speed would be appreciated.

A very interesting concept! I appreciate that you made it just left and right, since it's always a bit confusing in isometric views.

It's nothing too special, but I've got a soft spot for this kind of compact level design. I liked the part where you use the wall climb to go between spikes, I thought that was clever.

Very nice! More to it than I expected.

I fought tooth and nail, and eventually sank my teeth in. That's all I got. Great game.

Is the joke that ctrl+W is close window?

Very nice! I appreciate the polish, even though it's not complete.

I like how the jump changes based on where you use it; it adds some depth to the simple controls.

I'm stuck in the tutorial. The arrows won't appear.
