I have a question for you guys..
Unfortunately, I can’t make it to this year’s Ludum Dare.
To be more specific, I can enter for about 10 hours annndd that’s it. I don’t have any more time.
So my question is – have you ever got into a Ludum Dare you knew you barely had time to?
If so – how do you feel about that now? Do you regret it? Do you like the spontaneous-ness of it?
Can you link the entry you made?
I presonally think I shouldn’t try to get in, but if you were in my place – what would you do?

I have participated 2 times knowing that I had very little time. It turned out pretty ok I think. I had to scale everything down to really simple graphics, simple game idea, and simple mechanics.

I dont see a reason not to join, even if it’s just 10 hours you got. You still get great experience, and it’s still fun!

I did a Ludum Dare in only 10 hours, It was’t all in one chunk, but it as 10 hours in total. I would like you the game, but I forget which one it was :P. Anyways, you should still give it a shot! If you end up not liking it, then don’t submit it, but at least you will have probably learned something along the way!

I did my first LD in around 4-6 hours since I started from scratch in Sunday evening. 10 hours is plenty to make a game, as long as you keep it simple.
