Collector’s Curse, my return to Jamming!

Hey everyone! 👋

This weekend I jumped back into game jams after what feels like ages and I’m so glad I did. I completely missed that the Ludum Dare had already started, and only noticed it this morning. That meant I had one day less to work on my entry… but I decided to dive in anyway!

The Game

My entry is called Collector’s Curse, made with Godot. It’s a little game where you play as a cursed egyptologist trying to escape an ancient tomb. The curse you got forces you picking everything, so your collection quickly adds up.. and you can be crushed by the weight!

What a run!

Honestly, it felt so good to jam again. There’s something magical about starting with nothing and seeing a working game come to life under pressure. Even with the time crunch, I managed to get something playable and (hopefully) enjoyable.

I’d forgotten how energizing it is to just create for the sake of creating, no overthinking, just pure flow and creativity. I missed that feeling.

 Looking Ahead

I’m super happy with how it turned out given the time. Next time I’ll try to join from the start, but for now, I’m just proud to have finished something again.
