CLASSIC AND LEGEND

I believe that you in front of the screen, like me, were addicted to playing the classic video games of the last century when I was young. When I entered the game, I knew it would be the best time of my day......

 The popularity and popularity of video games began in the 1980s. At that time, the games leading the trend were: Super Mario Brothers - the milestone of the scroll horizontal version of the game, or Rockman - the classic action shooting game, and Contra - the synonym of the video game in the FC era There are too many classic games waiting for us to review in that era. I also like to play Super Mario Brothers. However, for some younger people, these may not be their childhood or favorite

 The 1990s was the era of the explosion of electronic games. Mortal Kombat - the only combat game with sales comparable to the Street Fighter series. DOOM - the milestone of fast-paced FPS games, Quake - the cornerstone and classic of 3D shooting games, and other games full of violence and blood are the paradise of some players. At the end of the period, the two classic fast-paced arena FPS game Quake3 and the unreal arena are also the childhood of many people......

The purpose of the above text is to "recall". I hope that after reading these contents, you will recall the good time of playing video games in your childhood, so as to maximize your creative inspiration. Perhaps you already have a rough prototype of the game in your mind. If not, please read the text:

GOAL OF JAM

The aim of this jam is to let developers recall those classic old games and develop one or several retro games that simulate them to the maximum extent. Your work should have the shadow of the game you salute, and let the player send out the exclamation of "Oh, this game is like that XXX!" as soon as he enters the game. 

Retro games have their own charm. The pixel-style, diversified design and compressed pixel-style music of 2D horizontal adventure games are their first characteristics. The 3D fast-paced shooting game's diverse weapons, enemies, exquisite level design, rock music and a lot of tomato sauce (I don't need to say you know) are the most attractive places.

Of course, I only pointed out the two schools that I have a deep impression on. Your creation is certainly not limited to these two schools. Now, open your engine, drag your mouse, and start to create this world that belongs to you!

But before that, let's take a look at Jam's rules......

THE RULES

1.The game must be based on a game or category from the 1980s to 1990s, just like the shovel knight corresponding to the horizontal scroll game, and DUSK corresponding to the retro FPS game led by Quake.

2.The image of 2D games only supports pixel style, and the image resolution of 3D games is lower. The model must be low polygon.

3.The game process should be longer than 10 minutes.

4.The game should be as complete as possible.

5.The game must be free or have a free version

6.The game must not contain any discriminatory ideas, such as racial discrimination, gender discrimination, etc.

WELL......

Good luck!
