How often do you get a musical cardgame? Draft Punks is a hybrid of a deckbuilder, a rhythm game and a music production/DJing app, where players attempt to live build the sickest set they can within a 4 minute window. Keep the crowd entertained with variety and creativity, bore them too much and they won't vibe with your set. Played entirely with the mouse or touch. Solo devved for Gamedev JS jam 2026 in 4 and a bit days with Phaser 4 and toneJS. All audio samples/loops I made myself in FL studio, art with Affinity.

【 COLOSSAL KAIJU × HEAVY MECH × RHYTHM PROGRAMMING 】 You are the pilot of humanity's last hope: a heavy combat machine. But mindless button-mashing won't save you here.

PROGRAM: Input your commands (ATTACK, GUARD, COOL, SPECIAL) perfectly on the beat to lock in your strategy. CLASH: Watch the mechanical warfare unfold! Block their attacks with GUARD, and strike back with ATTACK when they are open. 🔥 FEATURES Every action generates Heat. Push your machine to the absolute limit without overheating, then hit the COOL command for a deeply satisfying stress-relief. Rhythm & Combos: Time your inputs perfectly to the BPM to chain PERFECT combos and multiply your damage output. Roguelike Upgrades: Scavenge parts from defeated Kaiju to permanently upgrade your mech's capabilities. Emergency Mode: When your HP drops to critical levels, the system overrides safeties.

FROOPYLAND — Unicorns & Rainbows A game based on the iconic Rick and Morty episode “The ABC’s of Beth” (Season 3, Episode 9) Beth bursts into the garage: the news say Tommy’s dad is being executed TODAY for murder! Rick grabs his portable quantum projector — and the duo heads to Froopyland, a childhood paradise Rick once built with his own hands. He swears: everything here is child-proofed, NOTHING can go wrong. Of course it can. On the way to the prison they face SEVEN trials — one for every rainbow color: 🔴 Garage — the projector is fried: flip cable segments, zero every pipe and open the chalk door. 🟠 Nest — a giant winged pony kidnaps Rick into its nest! Fight off waves of hungry baby unicorns before Rick becomes dinner. 🟡 Memory Gate — Tommy warded the path: copy five light sequences in a row. One mistake — back to square one. 🟢 Cells — collect five memory chips and bring them to Rick one at a time while froupies chase you. 🔵 Trace — a chalk lock: trace the zigzag of dots without lifting your line to draw the counter-door. 🟣 Tommy — a knife duel: grab the pink arrow, aim, and land three hits. 🌈 DNA — solve a 6×12 cable puzzle connecting the top-left corner to the bottom-right — can Rick clone Tommy before the execution? All of this fits in 13 KB of vanilla JavaScript: no assets — every character, sound and location is drawn procedurally in code. Mouse or touchscreen only. In true Rick and Morty fashion: dark humor, burps, wubba lubba dub dub and amoral genius solutions. Trial seven. Color seven. Save Tommy’s dad — or at least save yourself.

Piano Jumper was created for js13kGames 2026: Unicorns and Rainbows. A unicorn walks a piano keyboard seen from the side. Moving is playing: crossing from one key to the next sounds that note. Play the tune, and the rainbow above completes itself. ## Controls - Arrow keys, or the on-screen buttons on touch. - Hold Space (or JUMP) and release to leap. Hold longer to go farther. - Release with no direction held to hop in place. ## How to Play 1. The next note is highlighted. Blue means you can walk there. 2. Yellow means it needs a jump. Watch the landing marker while you charge. 3. A repeated note is a hop in place, not a step. 4. Black keys are obstacles, not platforms. Land on one and you play a wrong note. Clear at 80% accuracy. The song always finishes — a rough run just leaves the rainbow gap-toothed, and you still get to hear your take played back. Every white key is in C major, so a fumbled note stays in tune. Only the black keys sound wrong. ## Features - Four public domain tunes: Ode to Joy, London Bridge, Twinkle Twinkle Little Star, When the Saints Go Marching In. - Melody only, generated with oscillators. No audio files. - The rainbow is the progress bar, the score and the pass condition in one object — one wedge per note. Its seven colours are the seven white keys of an octave. - A replay of your performance after every song, wrong notes and all. - The entire game is a single HTML file under 13KB. Created by WAKKIN.
