Should work now!

I'm working on getting a logo, once I get the game's art finalized, I should have one.

I think I found the issue, I will try to fix it once I get home tonight.

That should work, I don’t know if I should just make it playable in the page.

What are you using to play it?

A new version is up now (0.0.2)

Yeah, it's pretty bare-bones rn

It's actually looking like the alpha release will be in January. I plan to have combat and maps done by then. I've already done movement and collisions and I'm currently working on objects.

Hey there, I'm working on developing a new game in Java. Without a game engine, it has been hard, but also really fun. 

So what is the game? It is going to be like a combination of The Escapists and Minecraft. So essentially a prison escape game, but with building and crafting.

I just want to know if anyone would be interested in playing, or is anyone has any ideas on what to add.

This game is still early in development, I'm hoping an early release will be available in January or February.

Prototype 0.0.1 --> https://wpallender.itch.io/prison-escape-java

I'm working on adding more levels and a better ending.

need 4 more 

so far me and another guy, I’m trying to at least get 4 more

The theme for this year's Frostbyte Game Jam is Frozen Circuits!

I used GDevelop because it isn't blocked on my school computer. Also cause it is pretty simple and has good capability with 2d and 3d. I could've made it better but I didn't have much time. 

Also, I've never used Godot, what is it like?

Yeah, I didn't have time for sound or better animations.

So what, I still think you should make it free.. Just sayin :)

I'm working on getting more

Can you make this free again
