We’re knee-deep in pre-*Ludum Dare 43* jollyness! The **Whales and Games** team is not only proud to announce that we’ll be wagging our way into the event, but also that, this time around, we’ve got our most all-stars and composed team as of yet, with most of our team members participating for the first time together!\n\nWe’ve got **@JorgeGameDev and @Kroltan** on the programming key business, **@Moski** on the wrist-wrecking artistic-doodle labor, **@Zachary-Blystone** dropping the beats with audio composing, and **@PonchoGuy** doing whatever he finds interesting to do at the time of the jam because he couldn’t properly identify a role that fit him in time of the event! 🐳\n\nOur tools of trade for this edition are the same they’ve always been, power-proofed and tested for the event!\n\n* [**Unity**](https://unity3d.com/), most specifically the 2018.3 version that is still in **beta**, so we get used to working with those sweet **nested prefabs** during the jam!\n* [**FL-Studio**](https://www.image-line.com/flstudio/) for the audio composing, mixing and all.

But who exactly are we **Whales and Games**? Well, we’ve an indie game development team that has already participated a handful of times before in *Ludum Dare*. Our first game and our first *Ludum Dare* entry was [**Colossorama**](https://whalesandgames.itch.io/colossorama), originally made for LD36; followed by [**Hyper Holomayhem 37**](https://whalesandgames.itch.io/hyper-holomayhem) for LD37; [**Petty Puny Planet**](https://ldjam.com/events/ludum-dare/38/petty-puny-planet-38) for LD38; [**Jazzy Beats**](https://ldjam.com/events/ludum-dare/40/jazzy-beats) for LD40; with our latest entry being [**Wizsnooks**](https://ldjam.com/events/ludum-dare/41/wizsnooks) for LD41. It makes up quite the portfolio.\n\nWe’ve been hard at work during the past months working on a new update to our first entry **Colossorama**, but decided it’d be good to catch a breath of fresh air to take a break by doing a new game jam game! Not the most solid definition of a break, but that’s what you get from a team of mostly workaholics.\n\n![Discord-FB.png](///raw/519/z/1b00b.png)\n\nIf you’d like to accompany us during the jam, and also a place where you can show off your own progress and projects, we’ve got a whole sea-of-fun community over at our team’s [**Discord Server**](https://discord.gg/whalesandgames). You can also give us a follow at our team’s [**Twitter**](https://twitter.com/whalesandgames) account!
