I like the art in the screen shots. Unfortunately I could not get the game running on my computer. I am on windows 7, if that helps you at all.

Also can't get it to run on windows. Just crashes on start

Looks Nostalgic

I can't get it running

Looks so cool, but on mac :(

Sparks a bit of nostalgia for the old game boy. Nice idea, and nice take on the theme.

Might want to double check the controls on the color matcher, Sometimes J would work, sometimes K would. Does it depend on what I start with?

A lot of the games seemed too simple. I liked the artwork, however, and the quantity of minigames helped too!

5you 2014-12-08 03:42

It runs fine for me, just unzip it guys !
It's amazing how many minigames there are in that "console". It's a great use of the theme. Sadly most of them are a bit unplayable... That's why i can't give it many stars...

A few of the games could be beaten with button mashing J, and in pong and the racing one your player moved way too slowly. Also even some basic 'beeps' and 'boops' would have improved the game significantly.

Twas fun, and oooo the nostalgia XD Very nicely done. Ran perfectly for me as well

endesga 2014-12-08 03:46

Works great, and a great take of the theme!

Nice concept. The color matching game was really interesting. I couldn't quite figure it out, are you supposed to find two blocks that are the closest in color? Really cool. But I couldn't collect all the blocks.

Cool game! I fell in love with the game with the bird. Nice little twist for the One-Screen-theme :) Good job!

Can't run it - crashes before it even comes up. I'm on Windows 8. Looks interesting though.

*****************
For those of you who can't run it, PLEASE scroll up to my previous comment. Also if you don't understand the game, read the readme.txt

zabuza 2014-12-08 04:20

Not sure if its broken for me but all I get is a snowman and you button mash until you win, j is the only button that worked... :/

spacemyname 2014-12-08 04:24

read the readme.txt @Zabuza

binarybot 2014-12-08 04:29

Can't run like other comments, win 8.

somfunambulist 2014-12-08 04:39

Really interesting interpretation of the theme! I love the visuals, and the gameplay is all pretty solid!

ozcr 2014-12-08 04:47

Really good game, I really enjoyed it!

catwheel 2014-12-08 05:11

I am using windows 7 and it is running okay here. Thought it was p fun ^.^

hazzahazzam 2014-12-08 05:16

Lots of previous games on one screen put into one. Coding a pong API in 48hrs is pretty great! Good job!

theunderminor 2014-12-08 05:21

Is a cool way to deal with the themes restrictions. Can't believe you had time to make it all not just the 6? mini games but also kind of a console that they all play on, Well done! Other than that I think you know as well as I do what needs work and what doesn't.

shivur 2014-12-08 05:25

Cool concept with the theme!

volkoivan 2014-12-08 09:53

Games are interesting, but pretty casual and easy.
But anyway, 5/5, I liked it

greenyuk 2014-12-08 11:59

Cool take on theme, and it's great you got a few mini-games done, but each is a bit too casual and easy for me. I'd have preferred to have seen half the games, each with double the time spent. Nice job though. :)

perfect-victim 2014-12-08 22:56

very good game ,

rabbit 2014-12-08 23:25

Cool idea but it sucks having to relearn controls for each game instead of the same controls being used for each one, but having a different use.

jaycee23 2014-12-09 00:32

Fun idea. Nice little games. The snowman one is the best.

jupitron 2014-12-09 01:46

Awesome collection of games, it would be awesome with sound and music!

error031 2014-12-09 02:33

Nice and simply game. I would suggest improving Ai a bit.

dylanwolf 2014-12-09 04:34

Good interpretation of the theme, although because there were so many games some of them didn't feel fleshed out.

I didn't quite get the idea behind the color matcher. The game I played, there seemed to be leftover tiles after I cleared the similar ones out.

zompi 2014-12-09 20:38

Why do one game when you can do many? An it's playing on nostalgia which is always awesome :)
I'm surprised the size of the game too, quite optimal :)
If only there was some old 8 bit sounds... aaaaw.

louisload 2014-12-10 19:47

so many games! :DD my favorite was the flappy crow which is a lot more harder than flappy bird ahah

benmcnelly 2014-12-16 05:31

Wow a LOT of work here, didn't really captivate me but nice job anyway!
