my first program

Nice first program! It seems to be missing a font though; doesn't stop the game from running, so don't feel bad! Do you need help adding screenshots?

Spoiler

wait... wait. now I gotta go check the PTC wiki, you are evil lol Edit: I'm so confused. Maybe that's a good thing.

how do i play on switch

Just so you know, BGF:BEARFONT doesn't load. Otherwise, this is pretty good, can't wait to see what you make in the future!

I guess the font prank was a little esoteric after all, probably didn't read like a prank. So instead I just went ahead and actually made a BEARFONT file.

Actually that would be great - Now that April 1st is over, I suppose I probably should add some screenshots

Shoot, ummm... ok several things!! 1. This joke is too good. Did you seriously make an entire 2000+ line port of bearland in PTC?? And then put the most convincing year possible?? AFTER you said you don't do ports in that other thread??? It goes so deep! 2. If you had asked during April 1st I was going to provide some crappy camera pictures but like... if you want REAL pictures I honestly don't know how. I think a hacked DSi might be able to do something though? If you do want the camera pictures though I can do that, or help you if you have your own pictures! 3. The BEARFONT prank wasn't esoteric, I think most of us were going along with the joke with the "you're missing a font" comments. We all know who you are, come on

In seriousness there seems to be a real visual glitch with the 0s on the scoreboard.

1. Much appreciated! The idea was less of a port and more of a demake. The question was "What would Bearland be like in 2013" and the answer is "objectively worse all around." 2. No worries, I'll probably just redraw it then. But I appreciate you furthering the joke! 3. It can be impossible to tell the difference between "everyone's in on it" and "nobody is" haha

(That's because it's an O, not a zero. The bamboozle continues)

Unironically, this demake is pretty epic all around. Can't wait for the next major project!

Using the high density option, not sure if there's a difference, you don't actually get Decoys added when you find one. I fixed it by adding

DECOYS=DECOYS+1

after line 1267.
