Otto's Basketball Game, version 1.0.0, is now done :--) The game is freeware, and you can play it on (or download it from) Itchio.

It's a simple one-button basketball game with lots of silly details and a good kind of homemade feel to it.

Hangman (Very Illegal) has now passed 20k views making this dumb shitpost of a game 4x as popular as any other game I've made because of course it has lol
Honestly though if even a small handful of players have read and taken to heart the statement on censorship that goes with it I'm happy :)

Thanks for all the feedback on the basketball game! I'll keep updating it with smaller and less frequent updates - you can follow me on Itch for those posts: ottoojala.itch.io
Now that I've gotten to make a menu-less game, it's perhaps time to start figuring out a proper menu for The Other Project.

We did something different with the credits for Demonschool. We used this format: name, title, lengthy description of what they did. Often you see credits in games where you don't know what the credited developer was actually responsible for. We wanted to give people proper, actual credit.

One thing I like about AI is that it makes me a lot more confident with my lack of skills. My code is total garbage, my 3D just primitive shapes, and my English filled with spelling errors, but at least they feel human-made. Also makes me appreciate others' shoddy work more, as well as true talent.

The game is getting closer to being done - today's build, v0.9.2, adds subtle improvements and a few bug fixes.

You'll get to play version 0.9 of Otto's Basketball Game (yes, that's what I'm calling it...) tomorrow! I'm still adding a few details, but the game is close to being done. And no, there's no more to the game than what you see in the video - it's just about pressing one button and scoring points...

So, maybe a few compromises: additional keys (1,2,3 and 4) to toggle some settings (as hinted by the post-it note), and maybe a log in the upper right corner to keep track of what's happening.
I'm planning to release a "0.9" version this week, so you too can finally try this out :--)

WIP, and just with placeholder text, but maybe something like this as the idle animation/statistics view?
Any other stats I should keep track of? Bank shots perhaps?
