whatwouldmolydeux gamejam

48 hour game developing contest based on ideas by the fake peter molyneux on twitter (https://twitter.com/...!/PeterMolydeux), probably 99% crap, but im sure there are a couple of gems in there.

random selection of ideas peolpe have turned into games:

"You grow from baby to old man and back to baby and this keeps looping every 10 seconds. Small gap? Time it so you can go through as a baby."

"Game where your arms are controlled by a psychopath who keeps firing guns at innocent people. You must turn away from them and run."

"Imagine being a spy in a game world where the entire environment is transparent and so you can't hide."

"You are a scarecrow in a world with just 1 bird"

brilliant title (whatwouldmolydeux)

"Two players race eachother up a mountain, carrying a ghost. Players can either play as a Blue Robo-cop or a Red Robo-cop. Various obstacles (such as spikes) must be backflipped off of, with style points being awarded for dodging the lasers."

so noone tried any of these out yet? was kinda hoping i wouldn't have to go through all of these myself. oh well.

I've tried a couple, but they weren't that good. I'll probably go through all of them one of these lonely friday nights.

I wish I had known about this. I made an April Fools game while this jam was going on but it didn't get much attention.

They were made in 2 days though. Although to be fair I've made pretty fun games for Ludum Dare, which is a 2 day competition.
