Making a Case for Cosmic Restoom

These two words are practically perfect for Ludum Dare. When our team slaughters, we look for a few things. In general, we won't go with one word themes. They're often too limiting or too vague. I think about how hard it would be to judge games on that theme and most don't make the cut. We also don't go for themes that specify mechanics or have complex coding or design themes. We want Ludum Dare to be accessible to beginners and gamers of all backgrounds. Having a hint of comedy doesn't hurt either. Enter "Cosmic Restroom". This unlikely combo is a perfect mix of fantastical and mundane, offering infinite possibilities and inspiration without limiting mechanics or skill level. If nothing else, there's always potty humor. Whoever came up with this theme, thank you.
