How does your game fit with the theme?
“An Odd Place”. I chose to focus on Odd/Even numbers. It’s a math game where you have to create Odd numbers to please a god that only loves Odd numbers. You could say this odd god’s throne room is an “odd” place as well.

i hate math.
that being said, i think the art is really cool, and the math isnt too bad compared to the stuff i see in school.
the audio hurts my ears but your really commited to the nes style here to the point where you would rather make my ears bleed than stray from the nes style and for that i have to give you extra points in audio

also the cursor got a good laugh out of me
also "i just LOVE odd numbers" :sob: :sob: :sob: :wilted_rose: :wilted_rose: :wilted_rose: thats so funny

This is a fun little math game! The impossible levels are a bit frustrating, though. I think it should run a check if there are three multiply operators to make sure there isn't a zero amongst the numbers. x, y, z, 0 with the operators *, *, * has two possible results: X*Y*Z or 0, so you basically only have one possible result since 0 will always fail.

Thanks for playing!

And yeah 3 Multiply is also bad if you have 2 or more Evens, even if none are zero. If I just got rid of 3 Multiply (guarantee one slot if Plus or Minus), there would be no impossible scenarios. One of the number slots is already guaranteed to be Odd.

The Odd God is far better at math than I am. I handed him 9 x 7 - 7 with such confidence and he cut me right down to size. I have been humbled.

Anyway, prime computer lab game, felt like I was 8 all over again.

Thank you! This is high praise
