Quick reality check for everyone building:
This is an arcade-first jam, so ask yourself:
• Can someone understand my game in 5 seconds?
• Are runs short?
• Can players instantly retry?
• Is the core loop obvious?
If someone walks up mid-game, can they tell what’s happening? If not, pls simplify.
This jam reward: • Clarity • Tension • Replayability
Not feature overload.
An interesting game. I’ don’t know how to win. what is the objective?
I’m not sure I understand the title or what is supposed to be happening… ¯_(ツ)_/¯
There is no gamepad integration, no objective, and it does not meet the “one more run” theme since I don’t want to do one more run w/o an objective. “Please don’t do that” I suppose would go to the name? But I don’t get it. I think you can do better.
This game is great! Love the raptors on the 3rd level! Also the grow big power up 🤣
Couple critiques:
- Why can’t the guy jump?
- Level 1 spawned me w/ no cops once. It was kind of strange, probably a glitch?
- I spawned a couple times right on top of cops and died right away.
- The level is a little dark, and the angle from the top down makes it a little harder to see
- Would be nice to have a tutorial or instructions at the front, understanding the use of singular tnt and large timed TNT, what you are looking for (vaults), And tactics that you expect the player to employ (I did see the tips though, (like use the roof) which is great.
ultimately this is a great game, def on theme and the gamepad is well integrated! Nice work!

One More Run IV ($370 Total Prizes) community · Created a new topic “Please Don’t Do That” — Example Ideas
Some of you asked for examples.
No, dummy!
If we give you examples, that defeats the whole point.
This theme is not about copying clever twists. It’s about breaking something players didn’t even know could break.
Think of the one mechanic your game is supposed to have…
And remove it. Flip it. Corrupt it. Weaponize it.
If we can predict it, it’s not it; If a player can guess what happens next, it’s not it.
We’re not looking for “interesting.” We’re looking for: “Who let you ship this?”
Stop asking for inspiration and start causing problems.
Close this page. Open your engine. Break something important.
Then make it addictive.
Get to work!

Oh also wanted to mention in case nobody’s noticed that we picked up a sponsor! Check it out. Makes the prize that much more sweeter… Like a box of chocolates. Too soon?
And just to mention, maybe it doesn’t need mentioning, folks in our community are more than likely going to get their games ported faster to an arcade than any other person in the history of man. Because this is something new and different. If you don’t know what I’m talking about, check out our main page. We’re building arcades for games you can deploy. It’s pretty cool.

See you over there
itch.io Community » General » Game Jams · Created a new topic The Only Game Jam That Lets You Build “Bad” Stuff
We are officially encouraging you to make terrible choices.
For real, we are. That’s why we themed our latest jam “Please Don’t Do That.”
This is the jam that favours games where:
The jump button deletes itself The tutorial lies The pause menu attacks Gravity files for divorce
We don’t want safe or clean. We want games that make people shout,“WHY would you do that?!” “…okay wait. Run that back.”
Build something that feels illegal… Something that shouldn’t work… A game that players argue about.
If it’s chaotic but addictive, you’re on the right track.
💰 Up to $300 in prizes 🎨 1-Year CraftPix memberships (Top 3) 🕹️ Real Luxodd arcade port potential 🔥 Dev spotlight + interviews
Runs from Valentine’s Day → The Ides of March.
Yes I know it’s secret sauce getting on the calendar. Our last one made it, and we promoted it heavily just as much as we are this one on social media.our instagram. We even promote our winning game devs w/ special 1 on 1 attention from itch! I think we deserve a spot! Shanks

Ok so if you got to here, read more on our profile, and website. The Jam for us to simply to find good devs, and get you to port them to an arcade! That is our schtick. So far, we’ve gotten 3 great games! LETS GO!
itch.io Community » General » Game Jams · Posted in Narrative Designer / Game Writer looking for a Game Jam Team
Lionessa002 I’d like to pair one of our developers with someone like you in our upcoming jam. (Yes we compete in our own jams :D)
Let me know if you’re interested in writing a short storyline for an arcade themed jam. https://itch.io/jam/one-more-run-iv
Apologies for the initial rating. This game does in fact follow the theme… and after playing a bit I found it to be a bit fun!
The joystick integration seems to be broken? The gaps between platforms are impossible to jump, unless I just am missing something? Didnt know slide kills zombies, took a few tries to understand!
I’m so sorry for my initial 1 start review. Your game deserved much better, andI think you have real potential and making this into a full fledged game. Thanks for pining me on discord. this is a very interesting runner game.
good start. I think you got most of the arcade elements down. The game itself did not have me wanting to play more though.
obstacles whent hey come I don’t know what to do or if they are obstacles? You mentioned fuel I never noticed it.
I died a few times not really knowing why?
Music was fun but could be improved
The theme for “don’t fall of a cliff” was not followed though, so no points for that.
Thanks for the submission. Interested to see where you go w/ this.
