The Buppets have long been left abandoned and alone, their TV station closed down, perhaps there might have been a reason for that..?

Naah, all you see is an opportunity for getting some green cash!

Install instructions

There is the Web Version and a Windows Build currently
Simply play in your browser of choice or unzip the folder and run the BupTV.exe game.

Although we spent a lot of time making sure our game was as close to perfect as we could get in a week,  we've also included BupTV.console.exe for debugging purposes.


Note: Firefox and Chrome tend to perform better at running Godot web exports than the other options that we've tried. So, if you see a performance hiccup in your current browser, perhaps try another one?

Said the same thing on the jam submission page, but this was really fun! Took a bit of a learning curve and definitely required I paid attention to the buppet descriptions, but after a bit of playing I was getting good score multipliers. I loved the use of the theme and all the different buppet types. Music/art were great too!

Cute! I liked the storyline! Always a nice thing to be able to skip longer cut scenes. Didn't exactly know right off the bat how to put things together or that there were "types" of buppets. I kept searching for the green sock and wasted a bunch of money doing so. The different flair was great! Having only 3 in the rotation was tough to juggle, especially when you found synergy and you couldnt just have a B team hop in. I think I only got to day 8. Fun and I liked the music!

Thank you so much! I'm glad you liked our game! 

Day 8 seems to be where most people have trouble, so that might mean we'll want to rebalance it a little to make that day 11 goal a little easier. (After the game jam voting is over)  
Regardless, thanks for playing our game! I'm sure that Teddie and Edo will be thrilled to hear that their hard work is appreciated :)
