Really cool special effrcts!

Nope, no virus, you just didn't include the data folder with all the game's assets in it (images, sounds, etc...) without that folder the game can't run

No, no es un virus; simplemente no incluiste la carpeta de datos con todos los recursos del juego (imágenes,
 sonidos, etc.). Sin esa carpeta, el juego no puede funcionar.

This game has really great potential! very spooky visual atmosphere, good controls, lots of hidden paths that can be taken, I ended up falling off a cliff and apparently drowning in the bog water! would like to see this game fleshed out!

The game is missing the data folder so it can't be played unfortunately

Cool graphics and good controls! didn't know what I was supposed to do, but the game definitely has a Halloween vibe to it!

Thanks for checking it out and the review! I'm hoping next year I'll have more time away from work and my entry will be better!

Thank you for trying it and the comments about it, I'm hoping next year to have more time to make a better entry!

Just finished recording gameplay of my submission, Cute By Day Dead By Dawn!

Good luck to everyone who entered the jam, please play and rate my game! I hope you enjoy and have a great Halloween!! 

Very good game! the graphics are cool and the controls worked great, the surprise driving interference was a riot!    nice  job!

That would be really awesome!! I'll check yours out as well!

I thought this was a really fun game! Once I learned how to aim it was easy to kill enemies, but there are more and more of them over time making it challenging. there were some issues, after leveling up and choosing the cannon as my upgrade gift, I couldn't shoot or move any more, and also can't move or get away if the enemies pile up underneath you, I tried jumping in that situation but had no luck. The soundtrack is fitting for a spooky swamp, overall I like this game a lot!

Cool game! a couple small issues I had were the story disappeared before I could read it all, and the cursor disapeared when trying to restart or quit the game, but luckilly you had the text bubbles change color slightly when the mouse was over them so it was ok! It definitely was a fun game to play

this game is awesome, the jump scare gave me goosebumps!! well done!!

This was a really fun game to play! I played the 0.1.1 version, the only issue I had was the camera keeps wandering from where you set it with the right stick, no big deal if you continually use that stick to 'observe' the world you are navigating, awesome job!

This was a cool game to play I enjoyed it! The only issue I had was you have to get really close, like right up against the objects to use/view them but that was no big deal, nice job!

Thanks for checking it out and the feedback!!

Well this is it! I've done as much as I could and have a playable game for the jam1 was an exciting project! here's some general instructions for playing Cute By Day dead By Dawn, enjoy! 

Game Instructions: Press start after adjusting any menu settings you want, as there's no in-game menu. Go right and off screen when your character appears to start the game!! You can find a map in each room, press E to get it when you are touching the map. Find the hiding spots in each room (the shop has no animals in it) and press 'E' to hide from them. You get points and money for successfully hiding from the animals, and points and money for finding the maps, except for the map you 'find' in the store, that costs you money to get! Have fun!

good luck to all of you #screamjam participants!!

This might be the final build! go right and off screen when your character appears to start the game!! good luck to all the jam participants, going to my job now. Wish i had the rest of the day to continue progrsmming the gsme!! There's not much gameplay, but there's a few places you can go, and you can find the map in the cow's stall room, press E to get it when you are touching the map. Game controllers are not implemented, and the menu only works in the start room.

Nice job I liked playing this, good everything, and the levels are challenging

That is a pretty cool game! I kept getting caught by the zombies but the building recesses sometimes gave me enough room to squeek by

Thanks! Yeah unfortunately I had burning - crackling bonfire noise named aDefeat in there I was going to use for when you lose the game, and set the snowmobile on fire but it totally slipped my mind. I did animate the track moving and spitting out track shaped blocks of snow, also note the brake light works when you aren't pressing any arrow keys. Thanks for the sugestions and commentary I appreciate it very much, I had also overlooked the stitching backgrounds staggered inverted y axis, and / or x axis depending on direction

Thanks! I'll check out your game too. 

As far as 'Can't move',  You have to wait until the 5 second countdown ends  before you can move (Arrow keys to move) Also, theres an invisible 'change scene' timer that tracks only upward movement, so getting through the different scenes is buggy, I should have either made the barrior at least half way down the game window, or not used scaleable speed (which I didn't do because I wanted to make it more realistic) 

The best game strategy, for what it is, is to stay at the bottom left of the page, pressing the UP arrow key while you are  stuck against a glacier wall in front of you so you can continue to scroll the snow beneath you , then dart out as soon as you see a treasure to intercept it, then move back to bottom left and press the UP button . You get bonus points for each scene completed relavant to how much time it took you vs the min possible scene time of 2 minutes each.

I have no idea, there is no save or load features and the game doesn't access any files or folders outside of itself, so unless it's asking permissions or admin privleges to install the game it shouldn't ask for anything after that

It took a few minutes, but you should be able to find your game in the submissions feed, also maybe make sure you change the project to completed on your project page instead of being 'in development'? I don't know if that matters or not, but to be safe...

NVM I just didn't wait long enough, I see it there now, this was a fun game jam, good luck everyone!

I submitted my game but don't see it in the submissions list, It's called Glacial Racer

Why isn't it there?

I really got into it once I could mimic a drag- n -drop item in code, and even now I use the 1x version of gameMaker: Studio to edit mass changes with the awesome maginfier glass to find and replace any exact (or in-exact, you gotta be careful of the settings)

the original Gamemaker from Mark Overmars, I always loved video games, and wanted to make them, and back in 2002 I saw that and was like, yes! and it was set up as drop n drag and / or code, so that was my first introduction to programming, I loved it and here I am now still at it

To Independence day for all, cheers!

Thanks for the feedback I really appreciate it. Unfortunately there was game music but  I deleted part of my sound objects code and couldn't fix it in time to submit my game on time :( But it was fun, I loved the game jam theme!

The menu button wasn't working when I submitted, but if you just hit the green play button it should work, altho I made this on windows 10 in GameMaker: Studio 1.4999,  so if you have windows 11 maybe it isn't compatible, thanks for the info I'll see if I can fix it, and tons of other stuff too haha

Great job everyone that entered the scream jam!

What a fun jam, there are so many cool looking games,  I ended up streaming game play for not only my game, but I played a few of the jam games too,

https://www.twitch.tv/videos/1959221670

I guess one way to look at it is that Mad Lab's replay value is to try and beat your high score

10/22/2023/5:00pm: Added an updated game build and updated the game info. Still a long way to go and only 11 hours left, at least there's music now and the game starts in the lab where it should., All character and 95% of the game graphics are done.

I have been streaming live game coding, with all it's frustrations and triumphs, 3 hrs a day on twitch at: (todays video, but that gets you to my twitch channel to watch upcoming streams (12 - 3pm Eastern  until wednesday, except not on Saturday or Sunday.)

https://www.twitch.tv/videos/1954946961

You can download an early build here on Mad Lab's game page, but there's not much going on in it yet.

Copywrite details for in game media:

All the media in the game is:

The music goes purfect with this game, I really enjoyed playing!

Currently the 'Press 'F1' to bring up the info page isn't working, so I screenshotted the info page:

Awessome game, I've been playing for a few months now, Is there a community page or website for this game? I'm looking for battle strategy info from more experienced players, when other villages attack I usually loose more spear men than they send if I try to defend, while others in my alliance say the right defense techniques can cause you to loose much less spearmen.

K9 Wear

Ever wanted a remote control for your pet? Now  you can! With your Android smart watch which you can affix to your pet's collar, you can remote control your pet by sending commands your pet can hear from anywhere in the world with any device capable of sending text messages, including emailing your pet from your computer! For the best experience, K9 Wear is designed to be used with my K9 Remote app for Android cell phones because when using K9 Remote you can send your pet commands to K9 Wear by voice or text! (But both apps function normally without the other)  

K9 Remote for cellphones can be found here: https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.roadhammergaming.k9remote And the official homepage for both apps is here: http://roadhammergaming.blogspot.com/p/blog-page_31.html

How can a game be made with a size of 3kb? Is that really possible?
