Really fun and original. I wish you could implement a score system or some sort of challenge, for example : big production companies contact you and want a film from a specific genre. Based on current trends, you need to make a successful movie using the features suggested by the Lazy Movie Plot Maker 2000 :)

A man breaks into a secret military base. He starts shooting all the bad guys but runs out of ammo. Then he remembers something from his childhood: When they didn't have any more pebles to shoot with their slingshoots they would just beat each other with the slingshot. And so he takes a knife, punches it on his gun and stabs the remaining bad guys. He finally stands in front of his goal: The Reality Rewriter 9000. He tries to resist rewriting the reality, even though he is really broke and could use some more money. He takes his knife and stabs the thing.
That's what I came up after using this fun tool ^^ The graphics look really nice and the thing looks very polished. Had fun using it :)

This is addictive and hilarious.

@tenthdalek thanks! We actually tried to make some kind of challenge feature, but we decided to go to a more creative / relaxed, maybe in the future we add new modes :eyes:

@drskort that's a great story you got there, pitch it to Netflix! Hahaha, I am so happy you caught the essence of our game, to have fun improvising with ideas and letting your imagination fly. Glad you enjoyed it!

I knew that I always had the potential to make movies! :movie_camera:

British Royal Guard: Tropical Idiocy is coming soon to the theaters. :smile:

- Unique idea and take on the theme
- Hilarious
- The aesthetics match the idea perfectly!

Brilliant job! :v:

@guladam thank you so much for your feedback, it means a lot! Your movie may have a BAFTA coming 😁

A simple game but fun game

The concept is very simple but it was refreshing to play a project like this after a lot of mining game ahah

Great work with the UI, which is really likeable to use and read!

HenriqGiron29 Apr 2021, 00:12

cool concept :D

14 hrs huh? Great accomplishment, I just wish there were more to it, you guys have a lot of potential for this o.o

This is a fun idea, beautifully crafted but it's just not that deep for me. I wish there was more to it than this! i was expecting it to try animate it somehow!

The style of this game and the itch page is very nice and nostalgic! The game itself is simple, but awesome for something that was made in only 14 hours!

Jupiter_Hadley25 May 2021, 17:43

Funny game! I included it in my compilation video series of a bunch of LDJAM games!

This is a super cool thing. I love doing stuff like this. It reminds me of a South Park episode where Cartman was awesomo, the robot. There was a part in that episode where he's giving the producers in Hollywood ideas about new movies. I feel like that when playing this game.
Movies have changed recently. I still love watching older movies because they are much better. Everyone is watching the new Netflix movies, but I watch the older ones on https://www.rooomba.tv/, and I love them.
