Hello! I can code and I'm looking for an artist. for this jam.

Hi there! I'm looking to form a team for this game jam.

1. What can I do? [Skills and Abilities]

  I can code in Game Maker and do game design. Yeah, we will be limited to 2D games.

  I can also do some project management.

  You can see some of my previous game jam entries here:

  Reto Totora by Juan Arteaga, Uchuugirl, Renzo Herrera

  Geriatric Gunslinging Hotdog Cats on Scooters by Juan Arteaga

2. What would I like to focus on? [something you already know how to do, or developing a weaker area?]

  Game design and coding. I can also help a little with art.

3. What can't I do?

  Sound effects or music.

4. What don't I care about - i.e. other people can have "full reign" over?

  Sound effects

5. What is my time commitment to this project?

   can dedicate a couple of hours to this after work and as long as needed on weekdays

6. What kind of games do I like? What genres or game types do I enjoy playing or working on, or would like to try making?

  I'm up for everything. I personally like arcade games and RPGs.

It looks great. The only thing that would improve it would be to make easier to see that the charms on top of the cat can also be added to the guns. I played it a few times and lost because I didn't know where to get  the sandwich charm.

Just came from the War Rocket Discourse to buy it. :)

Thanks!

So yeah, I made the graphics and it's the built in physics from GMS2. About the music... I really wanted to add some Andean panflute tunes, since it's the only thing that fits and I found a royalty free song but it was 35 bucks; and while that seems fair for a royalty free song I refuse to pay that for a song I will only use once. 

This was very enjoyable and makes me want to play again to see what happens with the other choices. 

I didn't experience any crashes, but there was a weird bug where a random sprite would appear on screen for half a second. 

Thanks!

Thanks! The walking is something I have to figure out why it's so stiff in the beginning.

I was pressing the left mouse button while facing the litter, but nothing happened.

Wow. This was very stylish and well polished. Amazing job, man.

I love the Bronze Age Collapse , the Sea Peeps and strategy games. This was quite ambitious, so good for you for making it through. But it's too abstract to wrap your head around at least without a tutorial.  

Make it a two player co-op game? hmmm..... I think you are on to something there.

Great job on this. You made a game that works, is playable, understandable and beatable plus you stayed on theme through and through.

Hmm..... Yeah, I have see if there are better ways to move objects using physics in Game Maker. 

This was fun. So far the most innovative take on the theme For some reason the heart is hard to click on when it gets very tiny. My runner died a couple of times of tiny heart syndrome.

I ended up in fourth place. 

For one day this is very complex and impressive. For some reason though, I couldn't get pass the level where you have to pick up litter. I kept pressing all the mouse buttons and nothing. 

Thank you, I really appreciate it.

Thank you!

Thank you! There is a distance counter at the top, but I think the game screen is bigger than it needs to be so it's hard to see unless the scrollbar is just in the right place. Well, something else to keep in mind for next time. 

I used Game Maker Studio, but the images got blurry when I moved them from iPad to PC.

Hello,

This is my first Game Jam and I would appreciate some feedback from veteran (newbies are welcomed too) participants. Like, recommendations or notes. Anything constructive and helpful.

All his subquests are about getting married or divorced though.

Amazing artwork. Adds a lot of personality to the game.

Lovely art and concept. The one thing I would recommend you is to somehow visually differentiate the places you can click on  to do stuff from the decorations. I found myself clicking all over the place trying to find what stuff I could interact with.

Nice concept. The game froze when the two girls went up the hill. The NEXT button just stopped working.

Great graphics and design. The sprite moves like a hummingbird on cocaine when not carrying the egg and is hard to control, but great work other than that.

I love minimalist RPGs and this is a solid one. The only thing I didn't like was that I had upgraded my sword in a town and later I found a chest with a less powerful sword and without asking me it traded my more powerful sword for the weaker one. Like, what the heck? 

Yeah, the controls confused me too when my car got turned and I was going backwards. Other than that, totally solid job here.

Thanks! Yeah, it is too challenging. It's my first time using the physics engine of Game Maker Studio and was learning on the fly. The different physics variables need to be tweaked decimal by decimal to find the sweet spot. I might keep messing with it and see if I can find a more balanced mix.

It's fun, but it's hard to figure out which foods hurts you and which ones don''t. Like... why is that tomato with the one eye bad? Why is a little bit of bread bad? For educational purposes, it should tell you what you are doing wrong.

At the beginning I was frustrated because the car kept falling into a chasm before any mini-games even started. Once I accidentally figured out that you have to go full throttle to avoid this, the game became a lot of fun. Great job on this, but you might want to explain the acceleration thing on instructions or perhaps make the car always accelerate since it's the only way to not die.

For some reason the movement of the butterfly was choppy even though everything else seemed to move smoothly, like the clouds. I love how the winds were illustrated.

Amazing artworkl Nice minimalistic graphic adventure.

Here is mine.

Even after fixing the aspect ratio, the graphics look blurry. It happens when I save PNGs to an iPad before moving them to a PC. I have no idea how to fix that.
