I don't believe it! My game is in a very much playable state! With sound fx, even! Just a few more things to add to make it more complete. Hope I can get in the necessary stuff in time. *crossing fingers*
Because I didn't have time to draw another font that'd fit the menu.I don't understand why you chose a soft font for the instructions. It looks out of the place.
"Cranky Frank"
A game by Marc "HayManMarc" Hickey for the GMC Jam 2 (Oct 2016).
-----------------------------------
Controls:
Arrow keys ---- move left and right.
NO JUMPING ---- Frankenstein can't jump.
"C" key ------- Fart.
ALT + ENTER --- toggle fullscreen.
(mouse controls somewhat -- didn't have time to finish them. I just wouldn't use the mouse for controls in this version.)
-----------------------------------
Object:
Survive to reach level 15, or as long as possible. Try to get more candy than the kids.
-----------------------------------
Winning:
You beat the game if you reach level 15.
-----------------------------------
Game play:
Candy
Collect the candy. Frank thinks it's yummy. Don't let the kids get any because you're no hero.
Car Battery
Don't touch the battery or it will explode and zap you. You lose a life when you get zapped. Get close to the battery (without touching it) to charge up your Speed Boost. Batteries are overloading and will turn red and blow up if they're not drained for Speed Boost in time. Don't be nearby when they do or you will get zapped.
Speed Boost
You can move faster when you've got a charge on your Speed Boost meter. Invigorating!
Fart Bean
If you have any Fart Beans, you can use one (by pressing "c") to release a cloud of noxious gas in the opposite direction you are facing. When kids contact the cloud, they stop collecting candy and retreat from the area.
Extra Life
Collect these to gain extra lives. (Duh)
-----------------------------------
I hope you enjoy the game. I may try to finish this up with some polish post jam. Or, I may not. :P

49.I might consider doing some reviews. Can't promise I'll get through all of them though. How many entries were there this time?
Ooh, that sucks. Did you try it 2-3 times? It crashed on launch for me once during development, and that was when I clicked a lot during the loading of the game. Try it again just launching the exe and then waiting without input at all. If that doesn't work I'm out of ideas :/@ghandpivot: Dunno why but your game fails to run for me. The screen is white for a few seconds, then the game ends. I'll try it on a different machine and see if I can get it working.
I remember those days. My friends circle referred to it as the "happy freezy bug".Let's just say I always Ctrl-S before opening the sprite editor... GM8 burned me, and the scars still are there.
