My beard and I are in!

I was going to be working on a robot, but now I’m making Video Games! 😀

platform: Unity 2D (or maybe XNA/Monogame and JSIL)
editor: Sublime Text 3, Monodevelop
Music/sound: sfxr and Soundation, possibly FL Studio
Graphics: 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
