This is my first time making a game, and I didn’t know how to use any game engine. I also wanted to avoid coding. Jerbob's description about using PowerPoint as a game engine inspired me to try it myself.

This game was made for Jerbob's Silly Jam.

The theme “go to town” is included in the variety of character customization items (and 800+ slides) and can also be interpreted emotionally depending on your perspective.

I had a little more planned, but I had to cut it to finish in time.

Some text and planning were assisted by ChatGPT, but all art (hand-drawn), mechanics, some sounds, and story are by me. Basic shapes, fonts, and a mechanic (ActionX) are from PowerPoint. Music is from the YouTube Audio Library (copyright free). Includes one royalty-free stock photo licensed from Dreamstime.

ChatGPT also taught me how to make the game in PowerPoint and helped me problem-solve when I encountered issues.
