Sleep\nMany recommend to sleep during the jam, but why should you listen to them? You only have 48\/72 hours to make a game, right!? Not only making, but finishing a game in that amount of time is hard enough without the sweet release of slumber to get in the way. Also, did you know, the longest someone went without sleep was more than 11 days? So why shouldn't you be able to go 3? If you need to sleep, look to Da Vinci for guidance. He'd only sleep 20 minutes every 4 hours. Why not right?\n\n## 2. Food\nEating healthy? Nah. Eat fast I'd say. Why spend time cooking a stew or cutting up fruit and veggies when you could just run to McDonald's and stock up on cheeseburgers and fries!? Nothing gives you more energy than some greasy reheated meat and buttered buns. Well, maybe greasy meats and buttered buns re-reheated in your kitchen microwave. If McDonald's fries can last years and still be good, shouldn't they give you loads of energy?? Energy drinks you say? Drink a lot of them. Maybe a 16oz Red Bull every hour - give that heart a real boost! Who needs water, am I right? We're humans, not fish.\n\n## 3. Scope\nOkay, okay. You have 3 days to make a game. You may be wondering how much you can do. So ask yourself this, can Online Multiplayer make your game win? No? Do it anyways; MMO's are awesome. Might not have time to polish gameplay? Go ahead and add not only add a Quest system, but also Inventory, just for the hell of it. Oh, and toss Crafting in there too. \"But what about feature creep?\" Yeah that's a myth. You're the most focused and talented developer making games this weekend, why worry about that?\n\n## 4. Final Thoughts\nDon't listen to me.
