One of the crude, funny games of the 0h Game Jam
Did you remember to adjust your clock(s) on Sunday? I just slept in as always. Some game designers used the end of daylight saving time as an excuse to, get this, be productive.
There’s this thing called the 0h Game Jam in which developers make a game in under an hour. There isn’t a theme. No real rules, either — “just make a game, quick!” The results are strange.
Frog Fractions creator Jim Crawford made Madden Crusade for the jam and the concept cracked me up: “Guide your football team on a crusade across Eurasia to retrieve the Holy Grail and drop it into the Atlantic Ocean before time runs out! Your team will follow God’s Truth, i.e. your mouse cursor, unless you are clicking in which case they will avoid God’s Wrath, i.e. your mouse cursor.”
Frankly, I’d like to see a big-budget adaptation. The industry could use more weird sports games.
