THANK YOU EVERYONE!

This is beyond crazy. I have never got even half of the ratings in my previous games. Thank you everyone who tried and rated our game. It is VERY MUCH appreciated! <3

I'm trying to rate as many games as I can, but unfortunately my time is limited. But there is still 14 days to go!

AI generated TikTok script about an AI generated game? What a time to be alive!

For this Ludum Dare, I've experimented with what happens if I try to use AI for everything I possibly can. I've even extended that to the description of the game and a script talking about it on TikTok:

Brain Crops: Tim is on a first date... it's been a while and he needs help

Harvest the best words for your first date

First dates conversations are not easy, even less when you have too respond. You scramble your brain to harvest the best words you can use to make basic sentences, forget paragraphs.

Let’s harvest some words from short ideas, while avoid negative thoughts and akward silence. Help Tim on his date.

Gathering Web & Windows games to rate

Hey there! I'm trying to gather a list of community favorites of games for Windows and Web to play and rate.

What have been some of your favorites so far?

Go ahead and comment with links to your game or to your favorites.

A look at character randomization

My game had quite a few nasty bugs on release which I have recently fixed but my biggest regret was that I didn't get to do more for the characters randomization sheets.

Heads: Heaasdasdds.jpg Faces: Fasdaces.jpg

This was the bare minimum but suprisingly it allowed for quite a lot of variation by manipulating the textures in the shader with scaling and hue shifting.

Since then I experimented with more. Adding rotation, disortion, offsets and background colors randomization. Still the same 2 heads and 2 faces though. GrtzrtzIF.gif

Are you heading over to my game and invest your time for great funs in returns?

The only thing you have to do is to acknowledge that its Definitely Not a Pyramid Scheme!

Click Click Farm is now available for Linux!

Hey everyone, so today I added linux support for my entry and also got to play it on the steam Deck!

I also began working on an android support but ran into some issues so I probably can't release that until early next week. Once I have it on all the platforms I can support I'm really excited to start making a post jam version with save games, better performance and, proper balancing. Then the real fun of adding more content begins! I've been really enjoying continuing this project and I'm really thankful to everyone who's encouraged me to do so so far!

PSA Be Careful Editing Your Entry

This may already be common knowledge, so sorry if I'm beating a dead horse, but I edited my game page on this site a couple days ago to add patch notes for my post jam bug fix update. Didn't realize that when editing the page, you need to re-check/uncheck all of your settings at the bottom, including whether or not you want ratings on your game. It seems to default to receiving no ratings. I was wondering for a good day or so why I was getting more comments, yet no more ratings until I checked, so learn from my potentially common mistake and be careful! Might set you back a bit.

You like wonky cat movement?

Hi check out our game Nine Lives - Harvesting of souls :cat:

Sure it is not perfect but I think it still makes fun, what do you think about it?
