Our last compo with 15 entries, the theme was "Velcro Sheep", with the following additional restriction "One key / button only".
Almost all participants prefer to work alone, but if you have a team who wants to join together, it is ok too!
The game content (art, music, ..) must be created in the compo. During this week we will ask you for a screenshot. It is not mandatory.
You are free to start the compo with any base-code that you have been created also before the compo. But at the end, you must share all your work. btw public libraries or engines still allowed.
It may have bugs/glitches, but it should be playable. “Menu Screen/Start Screen”, the game it self and the “GameOver” screen are mandatory.
Best theme exploitation, best hardware use and more enjoyable. You can not vote your entry :P.
Your entry in bitbitJAM is your property, but you must remember that we will post all the source code that you send us. If you do not want share some code do not use it in the JAM.
MSDOS 286 EGA Game, #bitbitjam4, Type runme from DosBox to start! Written in Qbasic for MSDOS. The one key limitation made this very difficult for me.
You must time your button presses to collect all the floof balls in each level whilst avoiding wolves, then escaping to your sheepy house, and moving onto the next level of course. Game written entirely in assembly language, for the NES. Until recently I'd never played with Assembly language so it proved very challenging just to get as far as I have done.
You're a magnetic velcro sheep - you're sheeping it up. A giant magnet circles around you and pulls you around, but thankfully the ground is covered in velcro too. Cling to it (using A) to control your movement and escape.
You play as the sheep Sticky Hooves and dive into ancient Mayan ruins. Since the actual game is only allowed to use one button, Sticky runs automatically and the only option you have, is to jump (A-Button). Enjoy the latest adventures of Sticky Hooves and dive into ancient Mayan templs to find their treasure!

This year I thought I would not have time to participate in bitbitjam. But midway through the week I decided to try to make something to submit anyway. So, this project was made in 4 evenings after work.
It is the adventure of a sheep that fight for scape from a slaughterhouse and lives again with her flock.
Velcro has been born with a unique mutation: His fur has tiny hooks, which attach to a woolly sheep on contact. This way, Velcro can gather the sheep faster than any other dog! In the game, the dog is running all the time in circles. Hold space to change the circle direction.
Explore planet Zeh-baas with clunky 1-key controls, bouncing around rocks (sheep-fu at its finest) and getting stuck to velcro moss in the jungles of Bleatstar. Kill some Velcroids on your way. And have fun. You're a spacesheep, damn it.
You are Lumesse, the new robot in the office. Capture sheeps and get fun!
Velcro needs money so she buy a wagon mine to collect some gold ingots.
