Thank you so much! That really means a lot. I'm glad my writing has come across so positively, and owe a lot to Handstandish for his art & character designs.
So sorry about the bug! One other person has reported that but I haven't been able to reproduce it myself so I still haven't fixed it.
I actually teach a Scratch class here in Japan. So, seeing a submission made in Scratch is super cool! I'm impressed by all the different types of games you were able to make.
What a hectic time! Felt virtually impossible at first, but eventually got through it (mostly using lots of cold chicken at the start). A very unique take that paid off.
Thanks! I'm not sure if the programming is as impressive as everyone seems to think, but I'll go over it in the post-mortems. I also think Handstandish did a great job on the characters this year.
Also, it looks like your submissions didn't make it to the server. You can try resubmitting them on the title screen if you want. Edit: Turns out the resubmit button was broken. So, you'll also have to download the updated build. Sorry for the inconvenience!

Wow! This really ticked all the boxes of 'things in RPGs that I love'. You came up with a legitimately new, unique and interesting battle system and executed it well.
My favorite character was Taxxie, as her ult just generates more ults in a loop. It's crazy.
Really enjoyed this one. The time travel mechanic really helped make the most of the explorable space. Unlocking more time periods was a fun progression.
Hard to come up with something to say that hasn't already been said by everyone else at this point. Excellent all around! I really liked how different each of the weapons are, and how effective they were in different situations.
Insane production quality, even considering the team size. The tracks were really well designed, and the driving physics were pretty fun to experiment with.
I wish my time on each course was displayed after finishing, but I did track my best times doing the single levels: Bay of Pig Roast: 3:35 - Will Soar (idk why this was the only time I was able to select him) Area 51 H&S: 2:35 - Pit Master Shadow Smores: 3:45 - Taxxie Dark Silhouette Dimension: 1:35 - Pit Master
Just as a head's up: there is a bug with the saw tool that is especially common on the more complex pieces. If you just kinda fiddle with it and adjust the position/angle slightly eventually it should cut (it might not, though).
There's some real potential here in how the abilities and level design came together. I legit spent like 5 minutes just messing around with the last section to see all the different things I could do with them.
A delightful little platformer! Discovering the intricacies of the boost mechanic was pretty fun (like how you can boost while standing still). Great to have a boss fight when there are not many this year due to the rule change.
I legitimately got a little sad as all the weaving techniques I was getting good at slowly got taken away. Very impressive merging of gameplay and message.
Extremely impressive to make a fighting game in this timeframe, regardless of complexity. Even with just what's here there is some space to experiment and find different strategies.
And of course as everyone else has noted, the modelling and win animations are just fantastic.
Really loved the writing in this. All the little details of the characters and how the rumors warped as the spread were great. Went perfectly with Solveig as well. I truly felt like an evil mastermind when I had 3 rumors being spread around at once.
