Good idea!  Next time I do a game update I will try to make a Linux build too.

Thanks!

Thanks for this thoughtful post!  I've played E.T Returns a ton (lots making it of course, but I've come back and played it SO many times since then), and I've been really curious what strategies others used in terms of building power-ups. I personally like speed, bombs, and attack boost as my big 3. Spread was originally my favorite, but over time I liked it less (no particular reason - maybe I overused it early on?). I also became a big fan of the pit attack since it's a powerful way to run away from enemies and still throw down a devastating attack. Anyway, thanks so much for playing my game and thanks again for this really awesome post! This totally made my day! Onward!

Oh don't worry about it then!  Thanks for taking the time to make a submission for the Scrappy jam!

Thanks for the submission!  The aliens owned me! I guess the Ballers won't need me any time soon!  I had some trouble with the shaders on Windows, but the art looks great from the screenshot! I'd love to play a web build if you have time to make one!  Thanks again and great work!

Thanks for the submission! Unique mechanic and fun old timey music! I struck Scrappy out so maybe the Ballers could use me :) Great stuff!

Thanks for the submission!  This is a fun little driving game that reminds me of R.C. Pro-Am.  I think this is a terrific starting point for a sweet little game.  Maybe add obstacles and power-ups? I'm also glad someone chose to make a driving game (if I wasn't a judge, I would have made a Scrappy driving game for the jam!).  Nice work!

Thanks for the submission! If I were telling anyone to check out the jam, I would tell them to play this first. It's the perfect intro piece for the jam and for Scrappy and the Ballers. A very clever and creative submission!  Also, trivia games are just great. Good stuff!

Thanks for the submission! I really enjoyed the MS Paint style art and the homebrew sound effects. It gave this game a very retro and very cozy vibe. I thought the use of fries to show lives was very clever (and the fries remind me of Aqua Teen Hunger Force - intentional or not, that gets a big plus from me!). Took me a few tries to beat it, but I finally made it to the top!  Great stuff!

Thanks for the submission! I think this was the most unique mechanic of the jam, and it was nice to see someone take this theme in such a different direction! Good job and thanks again!

Thanks for the submission! A fun little platformer! Any game that has hot dogs and shakes for enemies is ok in my book (reminds me of Burger Time, one of my all-time favs). Good job!

A really fun mechanic that I think has a lot of potential to be a QWOP-like game (frustratingly fun!). I would love to see a couple more levels that use the 2 arm sorting mechanic. The tone and general vibe also fit the Oakland Ballers well.  Great game, and thanks for the submission!

Congrats on winning one of the runner-up prizes in the Scrappy Jam! Scrappy In : Attack Of The Vengeful Raccoons! was really enjoyed by the team! I love the story set up (one of the best in the jam), and the gameplay is a little tower defense meets Tapper. There's also a very nostalgic vibe that takes me back to the old days of indie PC shareware games! Really good stuff!

Congrats on winning one of the runner-up prizes in the Scrappy Jam! Scrappy's Way Home is a very tight and polished platformer. It reminds me of a Terry Cavanagh game (one of my favorite devs!). Love the use of physics, and the levels were really well designed (I want another 5 levels!). Really great submission!

Congrats on winning one of the runner-up prizes in the Scrappy Jam! Base Ballin' With Scrappy takes the pitch-and-swing mechanic (which I love) in a really fun direction. Great art and sound effects too! I still haven't hit a target, but I promise I will! Terrific job!

Congrats on winning one of the runner-up prizes in the Scrappy Jam! Super Scrappy Golf Day has tight gameplay and great polish! I'm a big fan of any sport fusion game, and this one hits the mark (or hits a homerun, maybe?). Heck, I wanted even more levels! Excellent work!

Congrats on winning 1st place in the Scrappy Jam! We loved the fast-paced mini-games, and Fastball Frenzy really captured the light-hearted spirit of the Oakland Ballers and the feeling of attending a Bay Area baseball game! Well done!

I posted in feedback too, but if possible, could you upload a build of the game that can be played in the browser?  Thanks!

Awesome! Lookikg forward to it!

Absolutely!  Pixel art, voxel art, hand drawn crayon art, MS Paint - whatever style you want! 

"Since you have enemies coming from the sides why not use those as arrows" - Yeah, I think this is the route that I WISH I had taken.  I'm glad someone called this out.  I started by prototyping the arrow movement and patterns and then added the monsters, but if I had a little more time to design the game, I would have went this route and had the monsters be the actual arrows.  And, yeah, the lack of beat matching is a drawback too.  Anyway, I really appreciate that you took the time to write up this great feedback!  

Thanks, mate! I appreciate it!

Thanks for playing!

Agreed.  I didn't have time to try to match the actual beat of the song.  Maybe I'll make a simpler rhythm game that does that.  Thanks for playing!

Thanks for this really thorough and thoughtful reply!  I think your feedback is terrific, and I'm adding it to my notes for the next update to the game.  I really appreciate you taking the time to type this all up.  This post made my day!  Happy Halloween!

Thanks for playing!

Also that dialog box during the tutorial is so great!  I love how it moves and the text pops out of the border!

I got it to work!  Somehow I was short-circuiting out of the tutorial and the game was getting stuck.  Worked better in fullscreen mode!  Very cool game!  I just LOVE the overall aesthetic!

I struggled to the keyboard input to work, but I want to play this so bad!  The art is awesome!  I felt like I went back in time and am playing on a computer in my den in 1988!!

I think this is a great start!  I like the player and ghost sprites a lot!  Could use some sound effects, but it's hard to get to everything in a week!  Nice work on this one!

Pretty darn fun!  Great spooky vibe!  Love the setup and gameplay!

Nice little match 3!  Catchy music and I always enjoy playing these sorts of casual games!
