Thanks! I'm glad the game continues to inspire.

There are two ways to make a palette in Rexpaint - one is to press the + button to make a new one, then double click the colour tiles to change them, then hit the S to save it as a palette. The other is to go into the data folder and start adding them as text files. Find an existing palette to work out the format required. This is the most useful way to transfer palettes from other programs like paint.net, and also a good way to clone palette files.

The manual txt in the root folder also has a ton of helpful info. Be sure to check that for a ton of useful tips and export shortcuts.

THANK YOU ITCH <3 <3 <3

Leaf commented on this in another thread 109 days ago and said it was to do with changing the image processing server.

A community moderator also commented 99 days ago on images not loading, but said they weren't sure on specifics.

Issue is still not resolved, but I wanted to update this topic to tie threads together. I don't know if they are aware that this is still a bug.

Nothing yet. I've also tried to direct message Leaf on Twitter and not heard anything back. Support hasn't responded in this thread, and I don't think it's been acknowledged anywhere else. Still unclear why this is happening or if it's intentional.

Please don't declare the bug solved when it isn't. This is just a workaround. There's still no official solution to this problem, and no official word on why it's happening.

The current workarounds are:

* Use an external host (like Github)
* Convert the gif to apng

Thank you!

Thanks! I'm currently having a break from collaborations, but I'm sure there'll be plenty of people looking to collaborate in the next GBJam next year.

I really enjoy the art style. It's noisy and grungy and authentic.

Thank you for playing :~)

I wouldn't recommend using Tenor or Giphy unless you want your gifs to be used in every social media application and become public domain.
There are other file hosts you can use. (Though be warned that Imgur is blocked in the UK)

Yes the introduction to combat could be a bit better explained perhaps. Glad you worked it out!

The onion is an onion and the plant is a plant. I hope this helps!

If I understand correctly, you've seen some of these while playing and rating. Please report these entries when you see them. We don't want to disqualify any entries, but we also want to ensure a fair game jam.

Wow, I'm really flattered. Big thanks to LadyNadia.

A cute game. Gotta love classic snake!

I had some problems with the responsiveness of the keys. Sometimes I'd press a direction and it wouldn't register. Edit: sorry, it's likely to be my computer, not your game. 

I really enjoyed the zingy sherbert colour palette and the stinky trash bags.

I've given an exception to your game due to technical issues. Next year please try to submit at least an hour before the deadline. Click this link in order to submit late:

The link is specific to your game only.

Hi! Just letting you know that the window for the game is too small and the edges are cut off.

Hi! I'm hoping this message isn't too late - make sure there are only four colours on the screen at one time. This means if you are using GBStudio you should uncheck "color mode", or alternatively recolour your sprites to be the same colour as your background. Good luck!

I really like the idea, but as the others have clarified it's best to not confuse people rating the game. Definitely upload the files once the jam is over though (or sooner, if you like, as a separate page - you should probably do this anyway so people get a suitable notification for it)

You are allowed to do anything within the restrictions. Experiment with a 3D approach if you like! :)

We have too many people who can't count to four for this to be a recurring joke

Thank you! The css and styling is me, the art is Batfuela and the animations are by DL. You can find links to their socials on the bottom of the page.

You should check out some of the previous years pages - Bat and DL made the theme announcement image last year (in 160x144, no less!). They're currently working on this year's theme announcement and it's already looking great.

Incredible. Everything about this feels right. The music integrated with the graphics, the various elements tied into the circuitry, and the gameplay loop is so tight.

It wouldn't have the really cool gold on the cover, right? I don't know much about lulu's or drivethru's print quality.

Hello! My hand bound copy of this book is getting a bit smudgy and worn out. Is there anywhere that the book is available in hardcopy?

Hello everyone!

Someone messaged me today asking about the NokiaArtJam compilation.

As some of you may be familiar, as a freelance artist and game developer my work is either in a state of feast or famine, which means my free time for side projects is somewhat scattered throughout the year. I'm currently (and thankfully) in a busy period between work and (less thankfully) COVID.

There have been a lot of great entries this year and I look forward to properly displaying them. So as to manage expectations, please know that if your artwork was an advertisement featuring Discord server invites they will likely not appear in the final compilation.

When the compilation is made you can be certain you'll receive an email about it.

The only thing I can say with any measure of certainty is to expect the compilation to release before the next NokiaArtJam.

-PDX

The player will not always die when they enter a wrong room, and there is a way to tell if it is a safe room, if you inspect closely. Perhaps some in-game hints would help people to explore this.

I'm glad you enjoy the art! I've got some unreleased features I'd like to add when I find the time which have more unique artwork.

Sorry I missed this message - yes, this is fine :) (although my response is too late for this year, it'll be useful for next year's entries)

The dog on the phone is really fun haha
