This game takes place entirely in the credits screen of a video game.
Backstory:
Mr Stickman was happy as he had finished collecting all of the stars in his game. Unfortunately, just as the credits started rolling he dropped them all. Being a capable sort of chap, he jumped in and went to collect them all over again.
I recently discovered that you can look up games by their creator's username; the moment I figured this out, I immediately searched for your game after fond memories of "Coal Not Dole."
I was not disappointed! The core concept is simple enough, but the real reason to play this name is to see one hundred awful/hilarious name puns in one minute. (Somewhere in heaven, Tom Magliozzi is laughing much too hard.) It's a really great central concept if you ever want to expand this into a full game, too-- there's a lot you could do with a game that takes place exclusively within the credits of a video game.
Funny and clever approach :D And it plays pretty well. The jump could be improved so that you have control over the height, but other than that good job :)
@Thingo Studios ha ha - glad you liked it. I've been saving some of those up for years. Being from the UK I hadn't heard of Tom Magliozzi before but I did a bit of research and found some of his puns. Excellent stuff!
@xgeovanni I've released a Linux build. I don't have a way of testing it, so please let me know if it works.
Very fun game. Not much gameplay but it is just fun to read the names. Maybe some characters animations would help the feels. Other than that, pretty creative.
Brilliant idea! Wasn't paying much attention to the names at first, but Lance Boyle caught my eye haha. Some stick guy animations would have been neat.
jeje, very challenging, it seems easy at first, but it isn't ... :D ... i kept losing over and over ... where did you get that infinite credits list ? :D good job ... high rated on innovation and fun

Sure took a lot of people to come up with that ;)
But, it would be nice if it show a retry button when you lose.
Fun game overall, good job!

But a good one nonetheless on creative :)
Was nice to play!^^
Anyway, great job ;D!
This could be better if you could better control your jump, but this was really solid entry regardless.
My dad claims that he went to school with Richard Head. Maybe it didn't mean the same back then.
Audio could use some work though.
Some stick guy animations would have been neat.
Gameplay is fun and actually quite challenging at times since you're not allowed to go off-screen. Simple mechanics but great fun!
If you're a fan of puns this game will be an even bigger challenge since you'll be playing while trying to read all the names :P
funny idea.
