Well, I did it: I started a Halloween pico game the week before Halloween. It started as a talking Jack-O-Lantern puppet and it still kind of is that, but also there's a game included now!
HOW TO PLAY
- Try to feed the pumpkin, who fair warning is kind of a finicky eater.
- Press left and right arrow keys to pick up objects with your pumpkin-y hands. Release to fling them into your grinning maw.
- Press the down arrow to slow your hellish steed and get more stuff.
- Press X to commune with this demonic gourd.
- Press Z to waggle your eyebrows.
Feedback welcome, I'd like to add some music and hope to keep tweaking this until the big day.
UPDATE 10/30: On the eve of Halloween, I've added music, tweaked the game loop, and allowed you to slow down your freaky horse to collect more garbage to eat. Release soon!

Got a score of 26 although I'm really not sure what I'm doing, @robdubbin.
Turns out Mr. Pumpkin likes candy, don't we all. :)
Very unique and interesting game. Definite gold star !
