I'm proud to share the newest game that two friends and I have developed since the beginning of June for this year's NES Jam, Ameriquest: A humorous non-American interpretation of America in game form inspired by MegaMan. You can play it on my itch.io https://parkerstraus.itch.io/ameriquest

Thank you for the criticism, I understand I might not have a whole lot of time to explain the functionality of each of the objects but please allow me to offer some insight into the gameplay. The arrows point towards the direction of the probe. Since one of the scanners is pointing toward the point of intersection where the two circles intersect, the probe is most likely there.

Hi. Thanks for pointing this out. I forgot to add some indication that you are supposed to click the button and then send the retrieval by clicking the screen where the probe is. Furthermore, the sonars and scanners have a limited range to search for the probe so it would be best to deploy in different areas. I'll make a few fixes accordingly to these.

Hello to all

I would like to take a moment to introduce a game I developed over the time of this week. The Cooler Dude. Made in a 'homemade' game jam set by my friends, this game is inspired by the Mario Vs Donkey Kong games. You play a robot AC Unit cooling the populace. Guide the robot to collect the water and cool everyone off.

I recommend you give it a play.

Time Crime Hijinx

In a game reminiscent of arcade games from the 80s, you play a burglar looting a store of its PC parts. But you can loop time to rob it even more. It's up to you to rob it in as little time as possible. Just make sure not to collide with your past selves or take their parts or else you'll create a time paradox.
