So as usual this is the mandatory "I'm in" Post. If everything works fine i would make my 15th Ludum Dare Game in a Row without any break.

The last jam worked pretty well for me (even if i hated the theme and the game was okisch). In my last 14th times the "April" Editions were the hardest one and not my best games. But who knows - maybe this breaks the chain ?

Normally when the jam starts at 3 o clock i would go early to bed and wake up early to get the theme. This time i dont want to - i just stay up a bit and go normal as friday late too bed (but before the theme announcement) and will start fresh on saturday morning.

I did that last time at the very first game jam so why not ?

Lets talk about Tools

• Aseprite for Art
• Unity 2022.2.2f1 (plan to make a GoDot game someday..i really hope it :))
• Bfxr for Sound
• Beepbox for Music (https://www.beepbox.co/ pretty good online tool).

Any tips for the guys around here ?

• If you want to make art first and dont want to hear on this "grey box" guys..do it :) There are many guys out there who tell you that dont make the art first (and the reasons are not bad at all) but i am a person who want to see the art WITH the game. Maybe you are this guy too :)
• Plan that you have less time as you think so strip some features..as if you overscope and might stress you should try to avoid that.
• Sleep is important..its just a jam not the end of the world.

I wish everyone here good luck, a much of fun and a good jam.

Btw...mike ...is there this time no Keynote video again ? ;)
