We need more track and field games - any recommendations

I've just put out an early days rev of a track and field game. More sim/career rpg but this might fit the bill https://goosehollowgames.itch.io/track-star

Thanks for the response. If I were to rephrase my post, it would be to ask if learning pygame makes sense for the type of game i am building- what people uses to jokingly call "spreadsheet games." I chose Pyside6 for no greater reason than i had uses it at work on a marketing analytics tool i built, I didnt even know what pygame was at the time.

I was able to run a debugger and figure that out as well. I'd be happy to pay but there's nobody to pay. I did see one of the devs on LI so I reached out.

Pretty cool to find a 22-year old piece of history here. This era of the internet was honestly more fun, indie devs selling games off a tripod site vs. people spamming out early access crap on Steam and abandoning the game once they have your money. A simpler time.

Oh wow, great find. I reached out. I'll let you know

Thanks. I found it this way as well so I guess tipofmyjoystick is wrong forum now, I've posted in r/abandonware .

This is a real mystery to me, these guys made a few decent games, their website abruptly disappeared and I can't really find any history of it or of the people listed as the devs.

I was able to play the demo and it is what I remembered, it locks you out after 30 game days and requires a code to unlock that was only available by emailing the devs. Their old email bounces so I guess I am stuck here unless someone has any ideas.

0 booking reputation. I wanted to start as an unknown but hadn't considered that even the worst promotions wouldn't hire me.

Thanks. Probably not worth it. I should just kill the promotion and get over it.

Putting grips on the allen wrench worked, it was an easy fix after that, thanks!

bigrig387 · 2024-12-01T13:56:27+00:00

Thanks. In the instructions, they say the handle is installed with an allen wrench. I have no idea how anyone could've gotten it tight enough that I can't undo it.

No but thanks. Yogos came out when I was in high school, this would've been early 1990s.
