I am positive this is a shitpost. (however its entirely possible it isn't and this is just a kid)
First of all its a scratch project; unless you are just starting out with programing concepts, continuing to build skill in scratch past a certain point amounts to jack. It's only really good at teaching programing concepts and fundamentals. Then ya try to learn an actual language. Or find a more powerful block/node biased language like BOLT.
My second reason to believe this is a shitpoast is the actual game itself. If you just play it you can tell that it wasn't made to be taken seriously. It's a steaming hunk of garbage. The programing is barely functional, the music is a low quality mp3 of coffin dance. The movement of the character is obesely awful. The UI is a broken timer and a box containing the current year. and if you press 9, you enter "cringe mode" I believe it was called.
lastly biased on the vocabulary and the responses of the "developer" carson. It seems that he's intentionally trying to appear like he's a child. how does someone... who says they don't know what the a theme of a game jam, or the limitation of a game jam, join a game jam in the first place. He just... stumbled upon it and hit buttons?
Judging by his responses his grammar looks intentionally wrong. Typos, capitalizing random words, using *asterisks* like quotations, not putting a ' in compound words.
This response clearly shows its a shitpoast:
"i have a game that has over 160 people played so i think im *skilled* :/"
If, this is somehow not ironic, and he actually thinks that this incredibly poor imitation of flappy bird has even a drop of quality. Well... if that's the case then there self confidence is through the roof.
Still, it's a bad game, with no redeeming quality's, interesting mechanics, original ideas, unique visuals, good programming, and calling it barely functioning is an understatement.
Although if this really is some kid, that was quite harsh, so ill end it with this.
Making games is a great thing, and learning fundamentals while you're young, and experimenting with programs is also great.
But this is a game jam, there are rules, you cant just submit whatever without even reading them. While there are rules, there honestly pretty lax in most cases. There meant more to constrain scope, and give you ideas.
If you really want to participate in a jam, I would urge you to get some more practice, ether push scratch to its limits, or do what I did starting out and learn BOLT for the unity engine, which allows for simpler programming using a something similar to scratch's block biased programming. and then i moved on to learning the primary language unity uses. maybe try godot as an engine, i've heard great things about it and it's apparently not that hard to learn.
You can pretty much make whatever you want if your willing to figure out how to do it.
For me, this was my first actual game jam, I'm honestly not that skilled. So I made a game that was dead simple, I accomplished this through research, and figuring out how to do things one at a time. Sure it could have been better, but biased on what the people who played it said. I managed to make something kinda fun.
This game jam was an opportunity to practice, to start and finish a game in a short window of time. That's what it is for a lot of people, including myself.
so when you submit something like this, something that looks like you barely tried. It's just kinda insulting.
don't let my words discourage you from making games, instead I urge you to practice, to make something that people enjoy. It's not easy, its really dam confusing, but with the amount of tools and recourses available. pretty much anyone can make a good game if there willing to put the time and effort into it.
welp, that took half an hour to write.
I Love Everything You Said And Im Actully 11 I Didnt Know What To Put In For This Jam Cause Of Its *Limitations* But I Do Have Games That Bring Scratch To Its Limit Like This-https://scratch.mit.edu/projects/462009060/fullscreen/
Yea i'm sorry if I sounded a bit aggressive, I did check out some of your other projects and its clear your putting work into them. I wish you luck with future projects!
I dont think this fits in with the jam :/
The limitation is that you can only use 5 colors
i litterly just joined itch.io a couple days ago
so i dont know what yu mean by*mini* jam and *power Theme
A game jam is like a competition, where you have to make a game about a topic in an especific period of time, mini jam is the name of the jam. But there is no theme, so you just need to make a game with the limitations they said, the limitation was only 5 colours
maybe you should practice before you participate on a game jam, making an original game, and maybe learn other ways to make games, i recomend you to learn coding when you feel prepared, this is for experienced people, if you want to learn, watch yt videos and other things, and never think there is a limit and you can't go deeper, because there is always something to learn, with time, you'll do great things
i have a game that has over 160 people played so i think im *skilled* :/
I played your game and that's not been skilled, you have lots of things to learn
:(
hey, when i was starting, my games were absolutely trash, i were like 3 years on scratch, but i never gave up, and now i am an intermediate game developer, you can do great things with time
i havent even using scratch for a year
and you used something else?
