got my pectin its time to JAM

My mate is coming up for the weekend and we gonna jam til we jrop. Sadly I’m busy Saturday and Sunday morning so we will be constrained for time. We’re probably also going to be entering gm48 as well, which means even though we are Jam we only have 48h and have to do our own assets, as well as use both the themes. But it will be a fun challenge, and there are two of us. That said, I have limited experience with GameMaker and he has none, but we have both made little games with other stuff before.

Tools and duties:

  • Programming: GameMaker Studio; Dan and me
  • Graphics: ?? Probably combo of Inkscape, Gimp, and GM Studio; both of us?
  • Sound effects: ChipTone, like sfxr on steroids, also possibly some of my own gear; Dan and me
  • Music: My own gear, including digital piano, Pocket Piano, Electribe Sampler, Yamaha VSS-200, few other things, all recorded into a 4-track tape deck. It’ll be dirty and droney, probably; me

Food and drink:

  • Beer, green tea, coffee, cranberry juice
  • Probably takeaways/ready meals/frozen stuff. Dan is veggie so I will probably get in on that too
  • Leftover Easter chocolate
  • Sleep. I’m already tired and I haven’t started

First proper LD, other times I’ve only done it for a few hours. Excited to get a game smashed out!
