A Nokia themed mini-game made for the 7th Nokia 3310 Jam on itch.io

Unfortunatenly due to time constraints and not being sure on the idea for the game, I wasn’t able to submit the game on time to the Game Jam. I started the game 4 days late and finished it 4 days late.

Bunny Smoosh is based on an idea for a game I’d already had, where you were essentially running from the game over screen, almost as a platformer. Combining that idea with the simplicity of the Nokia 3310 era of games, it instead became a game where the obstacles enter the screen at ever increasing speeds and you collect coins to keep the gameover screen back.

It was made in about 8 days and used a template from the game jam that included a shader for the graphics to limit the game to 2 colours based on the colour being light or dark, and inbetween was handled with a dither effect. It also included the sound limitations of the Nokia 3310 by only being able to play one sound at a time, any other sound playing would be interrupted with the new sound. so this also limits music from the actual game.

It’s a simple game, but so far feedback has been good. I’ve also added a scoreboard and medals to be unlocked using a feature in Newgrounds.

You can play the game below on Newgrounds by clicking the image (Game not compatible with mobile, ironically lol).
