Really cute game, it's great, art work is fantastic and it's a novel idea.

thanks!

Thanks for taking the time to write a detailed comment, appreciate it :)

Thanks for your comment, I just ran out of time I'm afraid, work, etc.

If we win one of the prizes, can we choose to have the pizza sent to a homeless shelter? 

Thanks

This is my favourite pang-type-game.

Nice! Thanks for the proper write up on what you learned, it was an interesting read. 

Just to be clear in regards to rule 3.... entries that have obviously been started before the jam will be removed before voting starts. It isn't fair on people that bothered enough to respect that it's a game jam.

Thanks for your submission to the jam! The music is great and there's quite a few different powerups, which is cool - quite hard too!

Thanks for your submission! It works on mobile nicely too! 

Hey! I'm focusing on learning something about A.I path finding and ray tracing, both things I have no experience in doing before.

Honestly, so far I've been doing more of watching video tutorials and guides than I have programming, so I think it's working!

I wanted to learn more about AI programming for a bigger project I'm doing, so doing a smaller quick project like this is what I needed to learn I think.

Good luck, all and have fun!

General details

The aim is for you to learn something new, it could be that you've never used Unity or GameMaker before and you want to give that a go or something as simple as you've never made a game with in the adventure genre.... all you've got to do is go out of your comfort zone!

Rules

1) Something in your entry must be something you didn't have prior experience in doing

Good examples:

• First use of a different engine
• First time you've produced your own sound for a game
• First game you've made
• The first time you've used C# to make a game
• First time you've collaborated with someone to make something

2) An unfinished project can still be submitted

3) Do not start work until the Jam starts

4) Investigating the new thing you want to use before the jam starts is encouraged. 

5) Tell people in the entry description what you learned and what new thing you used.

Just to note, rule 5 is a trust thing, please don't say you've never used <thing> before but are actually an expert, lets make this fun!

Simple but fun, ace art and good music

Interesting entry, love the art style. 

Just wanted to say good luck to anyone participating and have fun.

If you're new to game development (much like I am), the goal is to have fun, even if you have an unfinished project at the end of the jam, submit it, because you'll get useful feedback on how to improve next time. And perhaps more importantly you can look back and see that you've improved.

Thanks! I agree, it was on the list to change but work and time got in the way :)

It's good, it has the foundation for adding more levels maybe more power ups and more enemies, the art style is really nice too.

Thanks for running it! I feel like I learnt quite a lot (I'm new to doing anything like this)

It's good!  I love the music.
