The Mythical Sirenheadosaurus and the Empty Pirate
A downloadable game for Windows and Linux
Submission for the 21st Tilted Shed 12 hour Game Jam!
We made a game based off a mad lib of randomized words. Please enjoy!
Once upon a time an Empty Pirate’s family was starving.
When a mythical Sirenhead saw their plight and came to help
The Empty Pirate climbed onto Sirenhead's Dinosaur Body
They both DANCED far into the clouds, until Explosions appeared filled with gold and riches
The Sirenhead spoke, “head my word, take only what you need“
The Empty Pirate never having seen so much, wanted it all
The Empty Pirate stuffed pockets, pants, and shirt, as full as possible
The Empty Pirate climbed onto Sirenhead's Dinosaur Body
Sirenhead grimaced and started to DANCE away
The weight was too much to bare for Sirenhead
A day later the Sirenhead DANCED over the poor family's home, and it could see the family had one less mouth to feed.
This game took 1st place
Controls - A/D or Left/Right - Space to jump

fun lil game, made you a video:
Hey! Thanks for playing! The jumping is a bit sticky, yeah. You needed to let go of the arrow keys when jumping to make it work, else the movement velocity holds you against the wall. I didn't have time to fix that bug... 12 hours is pretty tight.
As for coins being where you couldn't get to, some of them were randomly spawned by one of the other devs.
At the end, if you jump on the platform above you can get a better view of the Sirenheadosaurus!
And you're right, we should have had a "Start" button at the title screen so you could read the full beginning of the madlibs.
Ahhhhh ok good to know, thank you ^_^
I really love the graphics! Is there a name for that type of style? I also like the colors used in the game.
Thanks! It's a shader with a custom render pass that I made and had some mechanics ideas with. Unfortunately I didn't have enough time in the jam to experiment with the mechanics idea I had, such is the nature of game jams, I guess! The effect is a mix of dither and fresnel.
