Vac-a-Doodle-Doo by Allison James

Suck. Blow. Up you go.

Take your cleaning up to the literal next level with Vac-a-Doodle-Doo, the tower-ascending, brain-bending cleaner that runs out of charge quicker than those batteries I bought from that pound shop down the road.

Feather your suck, tap your blow, keep yourself charged, and don't falter over a chasm - you might fall three quarters of the entire game back down.

A Sonnet to the Mind by Allison James

I had a likely-stress-induced prolactin spike show up on a blood test this week, so I have been asked to de-stress, take time off everything, and have my blood tested again next week.

But I have a gm48-entering streak to maintain, damnit. :(

Bricks Up, Look Sharp by Allison James

Tet-what? Who-tris? Play as an Amplegore, as well as a suspiciously familiar array of multi-ominos, as you try to build as high as possible, far out of the original play area, without popping your deliciously sanguine epidermis.

Go up! Don't make lines! Those don't make you go up! Up! Go up! UP

Sling for the Level by Allison James

Catapult your way up a hectic, grinder-filled tower of slings in "Sling for the Level", a procedurally-generated fast-paced arcade game.

Tap/click and hold (anywhere) to start pulling the current sling, move your finger/mouse back to aim your shot and decide its power, and let go to ping yourself at high velocity towards the next sling.

Navigate sling wheels, bumpers and escalators in your way to the top - but don't fall or take too long, as an ever-ascending inescapable grinder is ready to chomp you up!

Play the GX.games version on Opera GX for online highscores!

Street Lover by Allison James

Street Lover asks the question... why fight? Why not just not?

Pair two clauses to send compliments and small talk to your date. If you pick the pair that match, you'll deal extra love to them. But you'll still deal some love to them if they don't match, because they recognise you were trying your best and you meant well.

The first person to reach full love is OK. But it's alright if you're second, love isn't a race, we'll get there in the end.

Chainwhacks by Allison James

By day, Carto City is a peaceful metropolis - parks, shops, everything you could need. But by night, robots roam, and they're more than happy to destroy anything squishy enough to pose a threat.

Chainwhack enemy robots to destroy them, build turrets to aid in fending them off, and chainwhack those to defend and repair them.

Establish a hospital for healing, a DIY shop to chainwhack harder and keep your turrets maintained, and more.

Most importantly, survive the night - the robots will succumb to sunlight at 6am sharp and you can use the wealth they drop to buy more turrets and upgrades!

Two Tickets to the Gun Show by Allison James

A giant beefy boy with cannons for armpits puts on a show.

Delicately clasp your mouse and push it around to watch that hunky goliath sway as his high-calibre appendages shoot uncontrollably to the hip hop beat.

Fend off wave after wave of awry fireworks and mildly irate tank drivers and take us all to the gun show.

Tickingtimebomb by Allison James

Made in 100 seconds following a small joke.

Every second, the game randomly generates a number 0-100. If it generates the number 100, it crashes.

See how long you can last, or how quickly you can win. Or don’t, I’m not your mum.

Made in GameMaker 8.0 for a bit of nostalgia.

Pachog Day by Allison James

Every sixty seconds, a clone of you spawns and repeats your actions transposed by a minute.

Collect Unbranded Original Flavour Capsules. Don't run into your past selves constantly repeating your past movements. And advance the level, but be aware - your past selves will still follow your route, so they'll be able to travel through walls that weren't there a minute ago!

Features online highscores courtesy of Dan Johnston (coded in the allotted time... for his own gm48 entry. And then I had to cry until he helped me steal his code.)

All other programming, all art and all music made by me.

Hap's Hazards by Allison James

0960_0200_ItchioHeader.png

Hap's Hazards is an appalling pile of arsewash in which you, an unnamed female protagonist, must navigate a series of labyrinthine rooms underground in a vague attempt to find the exit of the cave.

See all of your decisions bare fruit as you logically deduce exactly how stupid you feel for spending any time whatsoever playing this absolute nonsense.

Look for the four buttons of "I hue shifted them in 8 seconds" which will allow you to escape when you find the screen.

Avoid five death screens that will rerandomise the entire cave and send you back to the start because nuanced gameplay is for children.

Let me know if you find John Cena hiding in the caves. He's in there somewhere. (Actually, don't let me know).

Yes, the game is winnable. No, you shouldn't try to. The win screen will only make you feel worse.

You know you don't want to.
