Welcome to the official game for the Clown Town collab, hosted by @Dirkalicious. In this collab, 92 imaginative artists from around the world drew OCs and parodies of clowns, jesters and harlequins. There was some fantastic art created, and so I decided to make a game to make these pieces come to life.


In this game, you're at the circus, and you come across an arcade machine. Might as well pop in a coin and have a play?


Instructions:

At the bottom of the screen are your two targets.

Shoot either of them as they move across the screen to get a point and a new target.

Hitting a clown not shown in the target circles will lose you one point.

The "Best" score shows the highest earned score on the Newgrounds leaderboards today.

Alternatively, click on "Gallery" to see all the art at your own pace.


Thanks:

Thanks to everyone who took part in the project for sharing your talent. If you haven't yet, make sure to check out the collage with all of the clowns in it. I really enjoy making games like these as it brings the whole community together and it is always so enjoyable to see the work of so many people. Behind the scenes, this game was a fun project to make and allowed me to try using new extensions in TurboWarp projects, such as animated text, and displaying actual high-scores from the leaderboard in a game. I took feedback from previous projects, and have made sure to include features requested previously such as full-screen capability.
