This game tends to be in hard mode as is. If you want an easier play through, remove a stronghold card, and add an extra temp weapon for each player for an easier play through. ^_^ God bless!

love the sketches! Im looking forward to your take. :)

thank you so much for the encouragement.  :)

work is underway! 

We did an initial play test and had a blast! Art is close to complete. Then a booklet of choice outcomes and rules.... second play test with 1st draft art is Monday  :)

Here is the rough draft of some cards:

So planning meeting happened today. We went over the notes and hit on important components that we had yet to finalize:  Movement, how to end the game,  etc. 

We are still ironing things out, but we got some scrap paper and tossed together a play test version of what knew so far. I took notes as we went. Overall, we have a good start. Now I'm on art. ^^. Here are the first sneak previews on the art, 

ty :)

Can I keep the 3 teammates if I obstain from a prize if the game places? So its 3 competing team members 1 non competing?

oh I didn't notice! I appologize.  We'll look at that ty.

Good Morning!

I'm super excited to participate in this. Im very blessed to have a team of 4 this round! I've worked with them all on other projects in the past but this is the first time our composer will be joining us on a Jam. 

I worked with the other two members on my Heaven Jam entry Throigh the Veil. :) 

I typically work solo and then get feedback from others to refine the game after I get a start.  As I don't have any instant " I know what I'll do" ideas from these verses, Im going to spend some time today in prayer over each verse with a sketch pad. I'll pray over the verse and write/ sketch any ideas that come to mind. I've asked my team members to do likewise in their own style if they have time. 

I'll update again once I have my idea pool. :)

God bless

Thank you for trying. ^^

Hi, so it wouldn't let me submit without clucking all the boxes. Hehe... 
No AI, Per fab art work was used and a solo develop. ^^

As I'll be out of town today I sent my entry with all boxes checked to be on time. 

No AI was used. Per made art was used I was solo. 

Hi, 

I tried to submit my entry but it won't let me unless I check every box on the submission form but I only want to select the 1 box per category that fits my game. Please advise.

I tried to play it, but my screen popped up in an eternal spin.  I couldn't figure out how to make it stop spinning and even trying to move while spinning wasn't working. reading what Matt wrote and your response, it looks like a really cool game. :/ sorry I couldn't get it to work on my end. 

I like the concept. I'm just not very skilled at games on the computer. I didn't get very far. LOL.  The first time I tried jumping to the top and couldn't figure out where the challenge really  was. Then I read the page and saw I needed to push the rock. So I tried but got stuck pretty quickly. I tried to let it roll back a bit to try and get it over and I lost the rock.... -_-;;;; I literally couldn't find it at all.  Maybe add a button you can click to be sent to the rock, or reset with out admitting "I'm a quitter" for when your rock rolls off to parts unknown.  

The avatar looking so weak and only able to jump incorporates the theme well.  Great job, judging from other comments I'm sure if my gaming skill were higher I could have gotten further. 

Thank you so much for the feedback and ideas! This was also the weekend before my school year ended, so I had a lot going on. LOL But I love the ideas you offered. I'll have to update after the contest. A friend had asked for a handy chart with all the cards on it that could be used to look up the functions each card could hold quick and easily, but I didn't have time for that one either. LOL oh well after the fact right? ^^

Sorry about that, I wanted to create custom cards, but lacked the time. So using a regular deck was a quick solution.  Honestly, I can't code at all. LOL so when I do these contests I always look for a table op way to play. I enjoy the mental gymnastics. Also CGDC competitions seem to be really friendly. Its a great way to practice and play around. ^^ Thank you for the feedback. 

I love the swing with the game. So I at first was confused too on how it fit the theme, but as others stated after reading your background I can see it now. I was clown for 10 years myself and it makes me happy to see a positive clown. So many clowns these days are depicted as monsters and murderers. Your crazed animatronic Bears though were a bit of a shock at first as I started to play before reading the directions. LOL Still cute game. Thank you for sharing. 

Very nice game. I read the backstory and wish it was incorporated into the the actual game Where I could know the story through play. - maybe an expansion on this in the future?  -A mini story telling scene before the game starts? 

Either way the music does give it a good mood and its a quick and fun challenge. I only got 88 down the first time, but my second run through I took out 250! I feel the more you play the better you'll get at this game. 

It looks very professional. Well done and thank you for sharing. 

Very cute game. I love the Christian theme. The 3d was super amazing, but made it harder to navigate.  in the instructions you may want to include that you are looking for pillars of light, It took me forever to find the bible LOL Loved the music and idea.  Thank you for sharing.  

Cute idea,  I like the concept. I'd make the car a bit easier to tell which way is front back for us that are not used to playing using our key boards. I was the out of control car that kept hitting everything and at a certain point I had trouble telling which way was forward or backwards anymore. Don't worry I took myself out quite nicely. LOL Also I had the same screen size issue on my PC as Salsadix. I had to wait for the full size button to get it to shrink down.  Still great game ty. 

Wow! you got a lot of things packed into this in just the 5 days!!! I'm really impressed!

Hello, glad to join you. Here is my sketch and doodles for a roll and write game. I'm thinking Super heros. :) can't wait to see everyone's projects!

Thank you so much for hosting. my team had a blast making the game. It was a wonderful experience. 

I messaged you on Facebook. ^^

How many submissions do you have so far? 

So my team is on final typos, and tweaks to game play. ^^ Once again my teammates ask I don't say too much quite yet, but tastes are ok. ^^ Here are the tiles as they stand and the cover of the rule book.

Such a beautiful sentiment. I hope this helps you both with your grieving process. 

So I'm still asked to keep game details quiet for now, but I'll show a taste of art update. ^^

Fantastic! I'll look forward to seeing what you bring! ^^

Looking forward to see what you will be up to as well. ^^

So  I'm up to a team of three and my partners want to keep most of the game details under wraps until the end.  BUT I will give a sneak peak at a couple of art pieces we are using. ^^ Can't wait to have a finished product and to see the other entrees. 

So game contest round 2 for me. ^^ I really struggled for an idea on this one as Heaven and Utopia sound so perfect its hard to think of a concept for players to strive for. I also didn't want to  portray resources in heaven as scarce or have really much competition. I wanted a feel good game.. I'm excited to say that I got a friend on board and she is bouncing ideas with me. We have an exciting game in the works. Ill post more about it as we iron out a few more specifics. 

A  couple of rejected ideas we played with were: Heaven as a courtroom where Jesus is your lawyer and Satan is trying to get you convicted of your sins.  (not sure entirely HOW we would have worked it but it was a thought)

A building game were you are building the rooms onto the fathers house. 

Files have been updated!

Updated to fix the rule book text size, extra page removed, Cards updated to have reward for winning obstacles/fights

It was brought to my attention that an extra formatted page on the rule book snuck in. Please disregard page 7. 

Got it running, cute game! I love the old school feel. Its really easy to move around. Though is there a spot to heal without buying a potion?  Two of my characters are  dying  and it took a lot to save up the 100 gold.... :'( 

I must have had an incomplete download. Its there now ty!
