He did; if you want to contact the author I suggest you do so through Discord as he doesn't appear to be active on Itch anymore.

He made this game in Godot. If I remember correctly, each screen has multiple variants that are overlayed on top of each other.

But you can...

No; all MCL Software is malware-free.

Thanks to everyone who submitted a game to this jam and see you next year.

Thanks so much for this! It makes reviewing games much easier for people who don't meet the hardware requirements or simply don't have enough time to play them all themselves.

Hello! While the game is pretty good on its own, I fail to see how it incorporates the jam's theme and therefore there isn't much I can say about this game in the context of this jam, positive or negative.

Yes, and if you would like to submit your game during the voting period, upload it to Itch first, and let me know so that I can give a single-use submit link.

Hello,

to address your concerns:

1. No, each participant only gets one vote per game.

2. All of them have demos/free versions available for download on the game's page as far as I am aware, if you find entries that do not please let me know and I'll deal with them promptly.

3. There was a large volume of unrelated games submitted to the jam and they have all been manually removed.

If you would still like to submit your game to the jam, please upload it to Itch and I'll give you single-use submit link.

It was almost certainly on purpose; this user is one of many such accounts (likely automated) that upload low quality games (or in this case Minecraft resource packs) to Itch and then submit them to random jams hoping that someone who doesn't know any better will buy them. This submission, as well as all of the other unrelated games that this user submitted have been disqualified from the jam.

Yes, updates that fix bugs or improve upon playability are allowed; I could've made that clearer in the jam description.

Yes, your design is perfectly acceptable. I apologize for not responding earlier.

Yes, the change is due to several participants requesting more time to work on their games.

I personally recommend Wikimedia Commons.

As long as you follow the theme, yes.

Allowed, as long as you can fit it within the theme of the jam.

If by "liminal OCS" you mean TikTok weirdcore characters like these, just know you CANNOT use them in your game. Your project will be disqualified as per the  jam rules.

If it falls within the theme, yes.

I don't use Discord.

Yes, that is a known issue; the Itch distribution of this game is missing a DLL that is needed for keyboard input and thus the game is currently broken :(

I am working on two other games so fixing this is currently not my priority but I will be sure to message you once it's fixed.

After PogoBijoux 2 releases, except it won't be called that.

The best Weirdcore-themed point and click game I've played. All the other ones I've seen are really just Ren'py visual novels.

Just because you get a SmartScreen morning doesn't mean it's malware. M$ SmartScreen is so shit that it blocks every unsigned executable by default.

Well, to be honest, I released the game for the first time publicly in 2020, but not on Itch, and back then it only had 3 levels, all of which were unfinished. When it reached a semi-playable state, I released it on Itch in May of 2022, and the game receives updates to this day. It's called PogoBijoux (the name is kind of random and doesn't mean anything in particular), you can download it here, however please keep in mind that even though this game had its full release on February 14, 2023, it still has many bugs and is not 100% feature-complete. A big update is currently in the making so you might want to wait until it comes out before playing.

Fixed in version 1.0.3.

The movement issue was fixed in version 1.0.3. Please keep in mind that the game is going to receive a few more updates this year to improve upon some of the most barebone levels.

What does the error message say?

This was an issue exclusive to the Windows builds. Fixed in 0.9.1!

Hi, I fixed an issue with the screen flickering that a few other people were having. Did the title screen load for you at all or did the game crash immediately upon being ran?

As to the "virus protections going off", the only anti-malware/anti-virus on VirusTotal that flagged this as malware (out of the 50 or so) was Jiangmin, which after doing some research appears to have a lot of false positives.

VirusTotal link

I apologize for the inconvenience. The Windows builds were provided to me by a friend of mine as I was on vacation and only had access to an old Arch Linux ThinkPad. I'll be going back home tomorrow and I'll try to build the game myself.

I don't really see how this classify as trolling nonetheless. Just because I didn't implement the theme the way you would want me to does not make it a trolling attempt.

Thank you so much for the video!

The original uploader made the page private to the best of my knowledge.

The last two jams hosted by you were made in collaboration with other YouTubers (N8 and SamYam respectively). Are you hosting this jam all by yourself this year or are you going to partner up with someone?

Anit-communism isn't inherently anti-capitalist, but it could be. For example, there are anarchists who don't believe in the state's authority at all.

I'm pretty sure this isn't an explicitly communist jam, so anti-communism should be fine as long it's not an endorsement of capitalism.

The limit was put in place by Itch so you will have to contact them. In the mean time you can put a link to an external host (like MediaFire or DropBox) in game's page. 

And what exactly does that mean? That you don't like with my implementation of the theme? That you disagree with my political ideology? Whenever somebody accuses me of doing something "in bad faith" I can easily tell a lot about the type of person they are.
