I am sooo in!

It's something like my... 8th entry, 2nd with pico-8? It starts in 15 mins!
Well, I'm not fully prepared (not as much as I'd like to be), but at least I made some time arrangements - so the target is Compo (as usual, but this time I probably cannot extend to Jam time)!

☑ made time arrangements (baby sent with mommy on vacation)
☑ project dir created, themes voted on
☑ pico-8 started
☑ created itch.io page (not sure if I'll use it)
☐ went through my notes on Lua programming

My stack

☑ pico-8
☑ VSCode
☑ Aseprite? maybe?
☑ coffee machine
☑ music to listen to

Good luck to everyone! :heart:

ready!!!

im ready, got all my snacks n drinks. did some practice in Godot. this time around my new friend Claude AI is helping out, they were super helpful in practice so things are looking good. excited for the jam to start!!

on your marks... ready... set...

Locked In!

I almost completely missed this event tbh. Today was my first day in a while without Uni duties, I found myself bored sitting in my living room deciding on what I should do now (except for playing Silksong), I logged in and holy sh@t it's starting today, guess I'll join then :)

GL everybody!

GLHF

Keep your scope small everyone. :)

I am in

Goals :

  • Make a "game" (with a goal and rules)
  • Have a high score
  • Either generative music or Shader
  • Include the frog
  • have an AI player

Tools

  • "Game Engine": p5.js with the v2 that I have never used...
  • Sound: I wanted to use strudel to generate the sound and maybe have it react to the game loop, but I have been trying for the last hour to get it working in my setup to no avail! I'll probably resort to BeepBox
  • Graphics: I'll try Pixieditor
  • git/github: for versioning along the project, and github page for the final release.

Hey greetings from Moldova everyone

kinda curious if there's are other ppl from moldova here rn

the chances are low but never zero

im in

will try to do my best; hope i'll do it..

I'm in

We'll use the usual tools (HTML, jQuery, Krita, pencil and paper, etc.) and the latest version of our framework as a code base, REPLICA 1.5. Feel free to use the latter if you wish.

I'm in

Hey, I'm in once again. I won't be around a computer for the first 24 hours so I'm going for the jam to get a true compo experience. I'm going to have a piece of paper with me for sure though.

The stack for my project will be built upon will consist of Godot 4.5 and something I can create graphics and music with. Likely Gimp, Krista oder Fidel and LMMS to create an annoying loop track. I'd also like to to a timelapse for this project. We'll see!

Have fun all you very nice people. :tada:
