First time with a team

It's my first time participating in the JAM category. I joined to this LD with my friend @jeison-pandini, which have the main role of Artist/Modeler. My last entries on LD were alone in 41 and 42 compo.

LD 41

On LD 41, I made a really bad game called Motor Challenge, a mix of Racing game with a Visual Novel where you had the challenge of winning the race and controlling the car's condition.

The overall rating in LD 41 was 3.25 with 8 ratings.

This edition helped me a lot to understand the time pressure of the event, but the final game had a poor result with the mechanics and the balance.

In LD 42, I made the Memory Exception, a game based on my lessons about operating systems (I'm a teacher). In the game, you assume the role of a memory scheduler, which has the task of to change the software pieces between the Hard Disk and Memory RAM, running against time (or the patience of the computer user).

The overall rating in LD 42 was 3.563 with 26 ratings.

I do a better managing of the time to achieve a better final game result than LD 41. But I still struggled with game balancing and player experience. Many players had a lot of trouble to understand the game mechanics.

LD 43 (what I expect!)

I and @jeison-pandini made a game called 'Real Fighter Man' this year for the TV Series Jam, on itchi.io, but we could not finish on the time. The game was finished about three weeks after the deadline, but we did much more polished.

This time, I hope that we could manage my time even better (I have three work meets during the weekend) and do a good addictive game. My best bets are the following: Side effects, Change the genre of a classic video game (I really wanna make anything like a Zelda-style card game), Contagious and No upgrades, only downgrades.

Yes, I know that I will have trouble with any theme anyway... ๐Ÿ˜”

A REALLY FUN JAM, GUYS! JUST ENJOY THE THEME! ๐Ÿ˜„
