Hello friends!!

It's the second Klik & Play marathon! Two years of bringing out your old computers (or DOSBoxes or VM's) to make some games in Klik & Play. This marathon's going to be compiled in an unofficial Pirate Kart and put up on my website!

Two rules.
One: Anything goes.
Two: don't use exports like Multimedia Fusion, keep the games in the native KnP format!

PS: I'm gonna try to make games on the Thanksgiving weekend. :D

So, today is the 9th anniversary of Glorious Trainwrecks! That's like... a bit more than twice as long as I've been here, wow?!? That's really amazing. I don't know who else has been here for 9 years in a row other than SpindleyQ, but even then like. Congratulations!! On such a successful enterprise. I haven't done anything for more than 9 years continuously, other than breathing.

Well, to celebrate this, I thought to myself: what if I made a year long event starting today, and ending on the 10th anniversary? "Perfect!" - my reaction. 9 years is very impressive, but the only thing more impressive (that isn't 11) is 10: its' the first double digit, and it's a nice round number, and also it's 10! For some reason numbers like that sound nice.

I don't want to throw out celebrating the 9th anniversary either, so this event will combine both. Want to celebrate the 9th anniversary now? You can do that! Want to plan ahead for the 10th anniversary? This will help you do that! Want to celebrate the 10th anniversary now? You can do that too, I guess? Want to celebrate the 9th anniversary in a year? I'm not even going to make a snarky comment because I don't believe in submissions being "late"!

So here we go. I will one day submit something to this event, but for now I am too busy. Also, I recognize that the greatest event postings include many amusing gifs and regular images, but I do not have the time to gather suitable ones up. I will gladly take suggestions in the comments. Also SpindleyQ, feel free to edit this post to put some in!!

Haaaappy birthday everybody!

Make something in response to a trainwreck you like!

That's the only rule. Here are some possibilities:

  • Make an unofficial sequel!
  • Expand something minor in the original into its own thing!
  • Recreate a game as best you can, but change one important thing!
  • Maybe there's a couple of games you really like. Mash them together!
  • If something was made with tools/techniques/methods/styles/etc. that you haven't tried, try them!
  • Make it your own! Reinterpret a game doing the things you're best at!
  • Make something that isn't a game! Make a zine, comic, video, song, story, poem or anything else you can think of!

The dates are also just a suggestion. Spend the whole month, or a single hour, or spend the rest of your life on it. Make multiple things, if that's fun!

If you're having trouble finding inspiration, try out some random games!

Introducing the Final Four of Something Game Jam!

There are only four of them left. This is their story. What are they? Your game will let us know.

Star fighter pilots? Chihuahuas? Cheeses in the shoppe? The Four Keg Men of the BroPocalypse? Shoes? Um, sports teams?

The following images were found when looking for "four left."
