Thanks for making this collage, I love it!

I suppose this is as good a place as any to announce that thanks to the overwhelmingly positive feedback The Adventures of Yulpers! has gotten, I've started work on an expanded 'Game of the Jam!' edition.  You can check it out at:

Made a video

thanks!    Video was a fun watch, glad you enjoyed the game!

The idea seems fresh to me in a world saturated with games that imitate Mario.
I think it's a brilliant idea to be a centipede, what at first seemed like a children's walk is getting more and more complicated.
Good luck with the game!

Thanks for your kind words!  It means a lot to me that you enjoyed the game since I used your so many of your songs in it.   It's really generous of you to share so much of your excellent work on OGA and I hope seeing your songs used in games like Yulpers! is rewarding for you as it's really the best we have to say thank you.  :)

It's funny you called yulpers a centipede.   It must be our years of video game training that we assume anything with segments is a centipede.  That was my definitely my original idea but my kids insist he is caterpillar which actually makes more sense when you think about it.  :)

It was a very fun game to play, feels very complete. The idea to have a growing centipede (or whatever Yulper is) as a platformer character is really great, one of those "why hasn't this been done before and if has, why haven't I known about it?" kind of ideas. It takes some elements from Super Mario Bros. in the visuals, but I think the music is a bit more newer style, which is nice, I guess. Unlike many old games, this game starts easy and the difficulty picks up slowly. I lost my first life on the fourth level and that was because I fell into a lava pit. The level editor is another great feature of this game.

I'd be glad to invite this game to our contest, the Game Development World Championship!

Thanks for checking out the game and for all your kind words!   Will definitely look into the GDWC.     Definitely have a bunch improvements I'd like to make to the game and a special 'World Championship Edition' might be just the excuse I need to do it.

Okay, that sounds great! Thanks for your interest!

Simple, effective, and fun. Great game!

thanks!   Glad you enjoyed the game!!   'Simple, effective and fun' was definitely what i was aiming for!  :)
