I’m impressed with the 2.5D effect achieved with Pygame! Looks promising.

One thing though, I don’t know why but your game flagged VirusTotal… would you mind open-sourcing the game after the jam maybe ?

Thanks for the review, glad you liked it. I had made the 2.5D engine with billboarding for the objects during a previous game jam (for my game TheOddOne). I thought that instead of using Unity or Godot I would reused the engine for this.

I'm not sure why it flagged your Virus scanner, I had a similar problem when trying to play some other people's games which other people seemed to be able to play without any problems.

I should be able to add the source code after the jam so you can look at it and reuse parts yourself. 

Fair warning though, my code quality for game jam submissions is absolute garbage. I generally end up putting everything in one file, using global variables everywhere and using ctrl f to find everything. Also there's probably not a single comment haha.

Thanks a lot for your transparency! (Can I ask what you used to make the .exe file ?)

Sure I just used pyinstaller, just something like
(in command prompt/ powershell)
pip install pyinstaller
pyinstaller --onefile --add-data "img;img" --add-data "audio;audio" main.py
(my assets were in folders named "img" and "audio")

Oh that’s why! PyInstaller is commonly falsely flagged because some use it to package poorly-made viruses but that doesn’t mean your game is malicious don’t worry. Look it up on google “PyInstaller false positives virus” you’ll see what I mean.

Good luck out there!!!

Thanks, you too
