Huge thanks to our sponsors!

Before we go, I'd like to give a big shout-out to our sponsors for Ludum Dare 49: Intel, GameMaker Studio 2, and Core.

Now that you've built a game, if you plan to commercialize it, don't forget about Intel's GameDev Boost program!

Next week, October 27-28th is Intel's InnovatiON online event. If you tune in, you might catch some familiar faces. :wink:

If you made a game in GameMaker Studio 2, don't forget, you're eligible for GameMaker's Community showcase competition. Details on how to submit are here.

And I'll be back Monday with a look at the Core games created for Ludum Dare 49. I'll be checking out the 9 games created in Core. Some really cool stuff. :smile:

Thanks again!

Ending the old "Google Groups" mailing list

It's bittersweet, but tomorrow I'll be sending the last message(s) to our google groups mailing list. The Google Groups list replaces a mailing list I used to run on my old Sykhronics mail server... except it was actually a discussion list, not a mailing list, but we managed to go years without people realizing they could respond.... haha :laughing: :sweat_drops:

As mentioned, our current email newsletter is here:

See you in April

That's it for me. See you next year for the 50th anniversary of Ludum Dare! :fireworks:
