Joke Game Contest 2: Gamin' on my Boy

[Clobbah]

I'm going to respond to Roo's criticism if my entry and try to clear things up. Repiles are in bold.

Donkey Kong '94 Remix

I really have to question how much this game was tested.
I really didn't have much time to test the game, since my schedule was really crazy, and I only had until 7:00 each day to make/test the game.

First of all, whenever you get a game over and continue, your lives are set to 0.
I forgot to test that.

This is amateurishly bad already, but the fact that the game doesn't even save your progress and you have to start all over if you restart the game makes it completely unacceptable.
I wasn't sure if games made for the competitions have save features, and even if they did, I really didn't how to make a good save feature around this time.

In the first level, you can die to a falling object even after you've triggered the victory cutscene.
Strange, I was testing the game and when this scenario happened Mario didn't die.

Both Kongs float in the air, doing nothing, which would normally make for a pretty easy level.
Was this after the "Mario dies in victory cutscene glitch"? Or was the whole level pretty easy?

I forgot to press the switch and went right, which caused me to get stuck here, forcing a restart.
That was pretty much on you.

Level 2 worked well enough, but then I got to level 3 and everything sort of fell apart. I don't know if I'm doing something wrong or if it's a bug, but I simply can not get past these vines/ropes.
No matter what button I press, Mario simply doesn't advance to the next rope, and because there's no other way to proceed, I'm kind of forced to conclude my playthrough here.
I really couldn't replicate the climbing mechanics one-to-one, but the best way I found to complete the level was to go to the 8th vine and climb it. Then try to make sure you avoid the Snapjaws.

So yeah, unless the joke of this game was that it's barely functional, it's sadly not going to get very many points from me.

Remind me to not enter a Game Contest ever again.

Also I vote for FabianLC since his entry was unique and really fun.

It's not that you "made a bad game", I think it's just that with your schedule you made a game that was a little too big to be properly tested. Nonetheless, I thought your entry was still pretty good.

Beware the mighty Wariphant.
