My beard and I are in!
I was going to be working on a robot, but now I’m making Video Games! 😀
platform:Â Unity 2D (or maybe XNA/Monogame and JSIL)
editor:Â Sublime Text 3, Monodevelop
Music/sound:Â sfxr and Soundation, possibly FL Studio
Graphics:Â Inkscape and GIMP
Last year I did the jam, this year, I’m going all out. I might try to get screen recording and whatnot going this year as well.
What I remember from last year:
- Fewer than three mechanics(I tried to do more)
- Feedback is important (specifically, from the game to the player)
- Nothing matters more than mechanics
- Gameplay, Gameover, Title, in that order.
- Specifically, get your simplest gameplay element working(usually movement), then get a lose/win condition then work on everything else.
- Have Fun and don’t stress
- Sleep
