How does you game fit the theme?
This is a game about a potato with a gun. It is probably the only game in this jam where you are a potato with a gun.
Its also a game about not having motivation and creative block and about how people creating works of art feel inadequate and unable to continue working on their work because they are unhappy of their work and life and themselves and their situations and how everything in the world seems to fall away from their hands so quickly like seriously, how on earth is this world going away so fast it feels like nothing is even worth exploring anymore because by the time you get used to it its already old news like what
its also a game about a potato with a gun
Did you write all the code and made all the assets from scratch?
The code for the Character Platformer is from Tarodev's Ultimate Platformer video
Most of the assets are by Kenney
The levels, dialogue, animations (if u can call them that), etc etc were made by me.

fun little game! really like the speed of it. also cant go wrong with potatoes and guns :)
Interesting idea. I do kind of wish the bricks would have a break between shots but that could just be me being bad at the game. Audio would have been nice too.
very nice, but why do bricks shoot bricks lol. the fast potato was very enjoyable. I wish there was audio, overall good job!
get them interested with potato with a gun and then hit them with the 180 of brick with a gun. much fun.
this is literally the best game ive ever played in my life
Fun little game here movement a little to fast but i like the comedic aspect of a potato with a gun and tyhe nice relaxed simple gameplay. music would also be nice for future
I liked the enemies!
There is humor here. Nice!
The platforming felt far slippery and over-sensitive for my liking. And whilst the game was funny, it doesn't have anything to do with the theme. Despite I think that this game could become a fun, quality steam meme game if given a lot more time and attention than can reasonably be expected in a week.
The platforming is fast and tight, and I really enjoyed the meta comedy. When the potato called the brick a basic bitch I laughed out loud. Some sound effects would definitely help with making bullets (both personal and enemy) more clear, and the design of each room made it a bit confusing to figure out where to go next.
The potato unfortunately gets stuck on the first platform :(
Yes, I Know :( , You can press R to reset the character when it happens
It never happened in the editor and only happens in the exported build, and i was running out of time so i just put in a bandaid solution lol
Shame, no worries. My game had stereo sound in the editor but it went mono on the export and I too ran out of time. I know the feeling :D
