games need to be made within the jam period for this jam.

Games need to be made within the jam period. Your video was made 3 months ago..

Game was not made within the jam period.

Unfortunately I don't use Unity, so I can't help you. Hopefully someone else comes along and has an answer for you!

which shader link are you looking at? Also, feel feee to join the discord to get faster answers. I'm sure someone can help out if I can't.

it's up to you to interpret the theme. Yes, I think that fits.  The constraint is largely to keep people from submitting games that weren't made within the jam period. Plus it makes us more creative ;)

By a landslide! Unusual Protagonist - i.e. inanimate object, animal/vehicle, geometric shape

Hey! Lots of folks on the discord https://discord.gg/fQcWbTGef4 #find-a-team channel that would probably be interested in collaborating!

Looking forward to seeing what you come up with!

As long as jam participants can play the game, and it looks retro id say its fine. I'd honestly never heard of the console before this post.

i would say generally nothing NSFW. That's a pretty strict requirement bcz the games entered into the jam get streamed on twitch.

yes, as long as jam participants can play the game.

Can you clarify? Do you mean an actual existing NES/Atari game, or do just mean one that looks like Atari or NES? Or are you meaning taking something you made for an emulator that runs on NES/Atari?

Fantastic art, music, and story. I thought some of the combat was a little slow and confusing to figure out at first. But, I got the hang of it eventually. Nice take on the jam constraint as well!

I'm not sure how this fit the jam constraint of not the main character, but by far my favorite one to play. So entertaining. Though I had trouble getting the hang of the controls. Wasn't super clear from the page what it took to hit the other players.

This was cute! I didn't enjoy being the healer and not the big bad hero, but that was the theme constraint, so well done!

I'm not quite sure how to play the game. If you could add some controls instructions to the game to make it clear how to play. I couldn't figure out what to do. would really help give it a better rating.

The game should be 2D matching the SNES as best you can.

I would normally say that's fine. But if you're planning on developing for the OUYA the judges for this jam are going to have a hard time playing your game. You're welcome to try, but I'd recommend planning a build for pc as well as whatever you do for the OUYA

You are not the main character

I would love to play this game! It loooks sooo good.

Thanks for the feedback. The name Essence of Grimm is actually a homage to Dark Souls. Definitely get the size complaint. I always try to bring the size down a bit, but unreal makes that difficult.

I like that you have to extend the pole arm things to move around and score points. Really simple, but well executed concept.

I was really excited to play this one after seeing it during the jam stream. Unfortunately I don't have a controller to play, and I couldn't fight once I got into battle. The c key doesn't work to cast magic, and I also couldn't run away from the battle. From what I did see of the game though, it has a lot of promise.

Visuals are great, but not being able to die kinda takes away some of the magic and fun. Also way way too many enemies too quick to come onscreen quickly overloads the game.  I do love a good space game though, always happy to see a space shooter.

I actually played through this before the rating period started. I don't usually play visual novels much, but this had a really nice quirky story to it, and a lot of fun animation. I can appreciate the game for what it is.

Despite the art style, I really like this game.  Polish this up a bit, and you could have a really fun engaging builder game.

Gets stuck on the loading screen when I try to run it in the browser, and process crash when I downloaded it and tried to run it.

Can't wait to see more of this one. I really think this will be a fun game once you get more of the story arc fleshed out.

The sound effects are spot on for an NES game! Love it

The game looks and sounds great! I had a difficult time getting the hang of the controls though.
