Hotdogday
This was my first game!
In Hotdogday, you play as a picky-eater elf named Elliot, who faces consequences for removing toppings from his favorite hot dog. The game is mostly dialogue and, for now, is very short.
The theme of the jam was unintended consequences. My girlfriend suggested this very funny idea and, in a fugue state caused by sleep deprivation, this game was conceived.
I had a ton of fun making it and might come back to finish the story and give it some polish. If there is any problems with the downloads, give me a heads up.

Getting to the end of this was HARD WORK and I didn't fully understand the ending scene unfortunately. I desperately desperately wished there had been more check-points when I stood on safe even ground, because I'm not that good at platformers. It wasn't too DIFFICULT per say, I could do every segment, but having to then also learn the next one and redo something I struggled with made me very frustrated haha, but I preservered! ( i did try extra-jump mode which did help but really, more check-points would have made me happy to try the challenge.)
Other than that wow wow wow, in 9 DAYS?? Both gameplay modes play really well, the platformer especially is incredible, very engaging level-design and quite challenging. Visuals overall are great, the Onion not fitting into the visual design was really funny, the humour throughout in general carries it quite well and I enjoyed the hints of gravitas throughout even though I was a bit confused by the end so it didn't give me quite the payoff I'd expected. Everything is super juicy and responsive, this is amazing work (again.)
Clearly you do spectacular work all the time, hat off to you.
Nice game and if you had only got 3 more votes, you probably would have won. In terms of raw points, you finished better than 1st place. Well done!
I'm glad you liked the game! I was very happy to have made it to the top 20, but now that you pointed that out, I'm even happier
Thank you :)
