Kloonigames

Back in 2011, me and my good friend from Sweden Martin Jonasson, ended up making a two player party game called: Jesus vs. Dinosaurs. Somehow we got Danny Baranowsky to do the music and Evan Balster to do the voice acting.

Over the next few years the game was featured at a quite a few events. It worked really well at these events. But somehow we never officially released the game. Reasons were a mix of laziness, busyness and indecisiveness about what to do with the game. Now 10+ years later we decided to just put the game out there. It’s a fun two player party game, that requires controllers to play proper.

Jesus vs. Dinosaurs – Super Turbo Edition²

Jesus vs. Dinosaurs is a 2 player versus game.

Instructions

God travels back in time to kill all the dinosaurs, because they’re not in the bible. Darwin gets wind of this and travels back in time to stop god. They both build cars a have the ultimate chicken race in history.

Player who gets a car across the screen will score a point. First player to reach 10 points wins the game. There are also power ups (which are usually bombs or mines). To get a power up you have to get a car to touch one of the crates that falls from the sky.

There 2 phases in the game.
In building phase both players build cars from tetris blocks. In simulation phase you can’t do anything except drop bombs (if you have any) with a button.

Back at the end of April I participated in the Ludum Dare 53 Jam. I figured I’d just do a quick game over the weekend. And I did just that and the game turned out okay. Unfortunately on the last day I started feeling like I’m about to get the flu. So I did the adult thing and went to bed instead of pushing through. I did finish the game, but I never got around to making the web version and putting a real release together. It’s here now. Better late than never I guess.

I made a simple – maybe the simplest – board game! Its called Hide No Seek and it is available at the a print and play service The Game Crafter. Although if you want to play it you can also just print it out, or write the rules on a card with a sharpie.

The Game Crafter had a single card game design competition. You had to design a whole game with rules and everything on a single poker size playing card. I liked the challenge and ended up making a design I thought was rather obvious. As illustrated by this image of the card:

A while back I experimented with the idea of rendering pixel art using post it notes. That game was pretty bad, but the idea of rendering pixel art in interesting ways was pretty neat. Inspired by past experiences and this painting by tubbypaws I decided to test out if I could render pixels to look like they were painted. The results were surprisingly good, so I crafted a smallish game around that. A big chunk of the game was made at Karlshamn game jam with Martin and Niklas.

Edit: Release 1.1 – Thanks to the feedback I removed the shaking camera and made the movement of the player a bit faster.

In January we decided to check out what openFrameworks was all about. It’s actually pretty good. So I decided to go along and do an iPhone game about matching stuff with it. Unfortunately I don’t have the iPhone build since I didn’t really bother to finish the game properly and submit to the AppStore, but I’ll probably get around to it at some point. Mean while here’s the PC build of the game.

Count On Me – Release 1

A game about counting, matching and popping bubbles.

Bubbles pop if they have the same color and number. You can combine bubbles by dragging them to each other. The color of the bubble will be determined by which of the bubbles had the bigger number.
Your job is to pop bubbles in order to get the highest score possible in the limited time you’re granted.
