FAVORITE CHARACTER BINGO: ROLE MODELS EDITION

My eyes have suffered in weeks, as I made hand painted efforts to be appealing as I can.

I thank a certain someone on Tumblr for being the first one doing the bit. (aka. SuperKirbyLover)

The original release of JumpStart Adventures 3rd Grade and JumpStart Adventures 4th Grade: Haunted Island include hidden screens within their files with the messages "you should not see this" (for JumpStart 3rd Grade) and "You should never see this screen." (for JumpStart 4th Grade). The intended purposes of these screens isn't exactly clear, but they do accomplish not being seen in-game, as stated.

Fellow objectumers May I please introduce you to Jumpstart 3rd grade mystery mountain. Its FULL of robots. most of them are voiced by the same guy but sound amazingly different. its been my comfort game for soooo long and I loveee the maestrobot and i love the soundtrack its so cool

Botley later appears in another game with a different voice actor, Mystery Club Detective Academy. Instead of running around trying to rescue robots lost in time, he supervises cases given to the player, commentating on them without taking an active role.

He more or less got a glow up here.

I made subreddits for Total Distortion and Jumpstart games

Made them for the sake of having a concentrated community on as many sites as possible.

Join them if ya want (or not)

I remember that girl being so evil that I wanted to either be her or beat her up. I could have sworn she had a mad scientist for a dad??? Idk I might be remembering it wrong but this game was EVERYTHING to me.

I had a pretty rough childhood and going to the library to play a cute learning game for FREE was a huge deal when you absolutely had nothing at home.

I’m remembering those heavy wooden chairs we had to sit in and even the smell of the library. Also, air conditioning! It was Texas so you know it was boiling hot and having 5 people living in a converted garage didn’t help.

(1996)

In JumpStart Adventures 3rd Grade, Polly Sparks has over 40 unique nicknames for Botley that appear throughout the game. This video includes various examples gleaned from voice clips extracted from the game.

SO! Due to my recent personal commitment to 1) stream more and 2) FINALLY BEAT JUMPSTART 3rd GRADE I made a stream schedule.

This one is specific for this week and will be updated until the end of the month. Mainly due to Thanksgiving and a few other prior commitments made before this one.
