Judge comments

Sturg

You could say it does, but I'm not sure if that's correct or not. *audible shrug* (how a shrug is audible is beyond me)

I'm not sure what some of these replacements were references to, mainly the tiny sprite replacements. Like I got Terraria and moon-walking Croc from DKC, but those guys + the green blobbos were from stuff I am unfamiliar with. Maybe *that's* the gamy part of the level????

Not much else to say about this one. It's flat for the most part, and no effort is really needed to beat the level. It feels more joke-motivated than a legitimate attempt.


ok but seriously guys what does gamy really mean?

Zatsupachi

I actually looked up what gamy means, it supposed to be something of strong flavor or smell relating to meat(especially if tainted) hunted through game. That said though this level is just pretty much a romp nothing to special going around it, I like the fact this gave me a genuine laugh at the end. If you can make it more engaging and look better, I would've scored this higher, oh well.

Rameau's Nephew

You made a valiant effort to not only use one of the weirder adjectives, but make it your central concept. That said, it’s a bit rambling and never really amounts to much. Bumpty looks odd with three feet; while this no doubt provides him with added stability, there is a reason why three-legged races are not popular as a practical means of rapid locomotion. I appreciate the inclusion of an unusually large and eerie lavatory, though.

+ Bold in its choice of adjectives
- A bit of a jooble-dee-joob.

Other: "Is this [horse] really gamy either?" The answer to this question, is, of course, "Neeeeeeeeeeigh!"
