Can you believe we have been making terrible 2-hour games for FIVE YEARS!? It's true! The very first pilot run of what would become the Klik of the Month Klub happened in June 2007. This stupid little jam has far surpassed my wildest expectations. Thank you all for making it amazing.


The Klik of the Month Klub meets right here on this very website on the third Saturday of every month at 4pm Pacific Time (taking daylight savings into consideration) for a two hour Klik & Play Showdown. Everyone who participates gets two hours to create something from scratch in Klik & Play. Abusing the stock objects is encouraged. If you really loathe Klik & Play you can use whatever game development platform you want. Two hours is a pretty tight time limit, though, so choose wisely!

Klik & Play is absolutely free to download, and learning it takes minutes, so everyone can get in on the action.


Want to talk to your fellow Klikwreckers? Join us on IRC -- server irc.freenode.net, channel #glorioustrainwrecks. Join the mayhem!

After you've made your game, you should upload it here!

For more information, check out the KotM N00B FAQ.

Sign up using the "Sign Up" tab above if you want to get reminded by email the day before the klikkening begins!

My timetable for this coming

My timetable for this coming Saturday is a bit messed up, but I intend to submit something, sometime, for this momentous occasion.

Yay! Got one in!

It's not what I sat at my computer to do, but I came in just in time to get a game made :)

Wait...

As great as that sounds, there's NO WAY I'm tackling The Long Rain anytime soon. I can barely find time for the three OTHER projects I'm juggling. I need to stop thinking out loud.

Malingerer-Z's picture

Woah.

Jack-in-the-box, you say? I Don't recall that at all... that sounds great. I just re-read The Illustrated Man the other day and found that I'd forgotten how great some of those stories were. The Long Rain has always stuck with me though.

okay

maybe a few more days but ITS GONNA BE SO GOOD

Oops, this is gonna be a

Oops, this is gonna be a really late submission it looks like.

About six levels left to make for my Jumper clone, then I need to make Easy and Hard versions of those levels in addition to the Normal difficulty. Then add in a mechanism that records death locations and throws them into a file and then I should be done, I guess.

In memoriam

In honor of Ray Bradbury, I'm going to attempt an adaptation of his short story The Long Rain. In order to do the material justice, I'm starting tonight instead of waiting.

Malingerer-Z's picture

A suggestion.

To anybody stuck for ideas; why not consider exploring some Ray Bradbury stories and giving them the Glorious Trainwreck treatment?

Healy's picture

Does anyone remember that

Does anyone remember that one story of his, where this kid is completely isolated from the rest of the world, and his mom is grooming him to be his dad (who died a long time before the story began), and also she's kinda crazy?

I remember the very end of the story, where the kid finally gets out, and all the while he's yelling "I'm dead! I'm dead!" which freaks out a couple of cops. Does anyone remember the name of this story? Because I forgot it, and I'd really like to read it again.

Edit: Apparently it's called "Jack-in-the-Box". Welp, time to get to hunting!

ill start preparing for it

SpindleyQ's picture

I googled for "animated gif

I googled for "animated gif text" and came up with textanim! The font is called "Abfun" on the site, but I can't find any references to a font with that name on the larger internet. WhatTheFont suggests Roller World BTN as its closest match.

i'm starting to suddenly have ideas bursting about trainwrecks this month

note that the date is on a 'new' number of the beast

Danni's picture

Ugh, "I Cheated" was

Ugh, "I Cheated" was horrible.

I have an idea for a similar trainwreck I could make for this event. And it won't have "jokey voice" or extremely bland "lolrandom" humor or ego inflation or spending half the game making fun of the fact that I rip off of other trainwreckers.

And this time, unlike KotMK #50, my creative juices are flowing, so I'll be able to construct a plot that doesn't revolve around something completely stupid like exaggerating spambot problems.

Well, you won't have to

Well, you won't have to worry about that. I'll be the one to take the blame for that :P

Further Suggestions

Solo of Solitude
Canon of Cannons
Cacophony of Monotony
Remix of Regret
Medley of Mummies
Falsetto of Frankenstein
A capella of Anxiety
Leitmotif of Inelegance
Duet of Duality
Vibrato of Violence
Waltz of Schmaltz
Happy Hardcore of Misery
Coda of Codependency
Elegy of Metallurgy

Are you going to just pick one, or display them randomly? I think 'Dubstep of Indifference' is my favourite so far.

Blueberry Soft's picture

Thanks!

Thanks for the brainstorm!

I was planning to just pick one, but randomising them aint such a bad idea. I could randomise the three separate sentence parts, actually. Hmmm-hmmm-hmmm--

Great!

I am not really into gaming. I would like to appreciate all the members of The Klik of the Month Club for giving such an interesting game and also for completing 5 years in this filed successfully. I hope that this progress in game development continues forever. http://poop.bike/
