Skiiiiiii
A downloadable game
Description:
A small excel game about skiing, made for the Low Code Game Jam. The game is made in Excel, using almost entirely with cell formulas.
How to play:
Click the right button on the "RealScreen" sheet to speed up, and left to slow down.
Collect coins to increase your score. Avoid birds that flies by. The game ends when you get hit by a bird.
How to setup:
Step1: Unzip the included file, there should be 2 file.
Step2: Open the PixelSprite.tff font file and install it.
Step3: Right click the Skiing Game.xlsm file and open its property. Trust it so the macro can run.
Step4: Open the file with excel. Navigate to File->Options->Formulas->Enable Iterative Calculation. And set the Maximum iteration to 1.
SETUP DONE
Now to start the game, click on the pause button to unpause the game.
To reset the game, click the reset button twice.
NOTE: DO NOT SAVE THE FILE WHEN EXITING.
There are tons of bug that I am aware of and certainly even more that is waiting to be found. Some are just because of excel, others because I want to keep at least some of my sanity.

While maybe not the most compelling gameplay, I do appreciate what must have been a huge effort to get this to work even this well. Usually "no code" is selected to alleviate the tech burden, but clearly your approach here has actually done the opposite. :) A clear example of "we did it because we could".
Hats off, this is very cool!
