LD 41April 20–23, 2018

tell me the title

i am soo excited wow its too good to participate in ludum dare 41

How to publish game? Help needed

I'm quite new to this; I can see a lot of placeholder games for LD41, most marked as 'Jam' or 'Compo'. I have created a game placeholder, saved it but it stays 'Unpublished game', and I cannot see where to select 'Compo' from. Am I missing something?

Thanks in advanced.

I'm In

This is my first LD Jam so I don't know what to expect, or if I'm even doing this right. I'm just happy to be participating after years of mulling around saying "I wish I could make games." Time's going to pass anyway, might as well use it to accomplish what you want!

Lvl 1 reporting in

This is my first Jam alone, I have participated in a IRL gathering Game Jam before with my friends, and it was the best experience of my life! full of adrenaline and fun.

But in that Jam I worked only as an artist, so in this one I will be an one man orchestra! (I hope I dont die trying hahah)

I want to learn a lot :D

Looking for Music/SFX guy for our team!

We are a coder and artist that will participate for the 11th time. Our best overall place is 9th. Need someone who can do SFX and/or Music. Previous entries at: https://windmillgames.itch.io/

Hit me up on Discord: Jeeper#9352

Please let the theme be good!

Please let the theme be good! Please let the theme be good! Please let the theme be good!

I'm in!

This is not only the first game event I will be a part of, it is also the first time for me working in a team. I'm pretty excited and don't really know what to expect, but I'm sure it'll be great!

And I hope we can learn a lot more since none of us has ever finished a game.

No solo it seems :D

I dragged my girlfriend in here together with me. Now i got thr perfect game artist!

Let's begin

This is my first time doing the Dare. I was recommended by a friend. If an artist here is interested in joining me, leave a comment. I would really appreciate the help. However, for now, I'm excited to try the Dare solo. Hope we get a good theme!

Already got some ideas

To me, each Ludum Dare starts the same way: I check the theme on twitter and...

it sucks!

That's why this time, I took just a few minutes to write one sentence on paper for each theme. I'm surprised that I can have so many ideas when I'm not under the timer pressure!

I actually had some good ideas on themes I thought were bad. So much so that I changed my votes on the final round. I even wish some of them come out just to make the game. Of course, some themes in the list still sucks, but hey, it is what it is.

I hope it will not be regarded as "cheating". I quit the previous LDJam because I had no ideas in the first 5 or 6 hours (and then some technical difficulties that did not help). I don't want that to happen ever again, nor to anyone of you. That's why I'm sharing it and encourage people that stress in the first hours to just have a quick run on the theme list and write the first things they can think about.

See you tonight!

Brainstorming ideas - one big spreadsheet of inspiration

We've been brainstorming ideas for each theme in the Discord channel, so if you are stuck and need some inspiration, look no further:

https://docs.google.com/spreadsheets/d/1Xt5KDKyWxAu4JFS3k7rl04CCBKi_0RbRBu47xy7QQHI/edit?usp=sharing

Feel free to leave a comment or idea

I'M IN!!!

I have test on Monday that I have to prepare for but screw it I'll make a video game instead!

ill be learning and using phaser CE as my game framework and piskel for crappy pixel art.

If I can actually finish something that would be great.

My Favorite Theme (I’m In!)

Of the themes in the final round of voting, “Color changes everything” is my favorite because it easily caters to puzzle games, which I like in the game jam setting. I think it would also lead to a lot of diversity (no pun intended) in the types of games, which is a mark of a good theme in my opinion.

Welp, this is gonna be interesting.

Night before everything starts, the computer with all of my art capability and dev software up and dies... Lost everything on the hard drive. Now to see what I can make on a computer with no art capability and none of my old code I was familiar with.

Edit to add: Oh thank goodness. Dug up an old copy of RPG Maker of all things.

Let's go

this is my first jam in Ludum dare. goodluck to me and to you guys

✦ Ludum Dare 41 ✦

Heya! I'm diving_squid, a 13 year old aspiring game creator. With 11 hours 37 minutes to go, I'm still deciding if I should take part in Ludum Dare 41. Typing this, I think I will, however I'd like to enter for the combo but I'm not sure if I'd make it in time. Can anyone give me some advice, and also possibly link me to the part of the site that lets you create an empty games slot type thing? Best of luck to all entrants, I'm sure everyone's games will be stunning ✦ Squid ~

Ludum Dare Streamers List & IRC Channel

Ludum Dare Streams

I made a website that features all Ludum Dare streams pulled together from Twitch, Youtube, Picarto, and Smashcast. Remember to tag your streams with "Ludum Dare" or "LDJAM" in the name so people can find you!

ProgrammingStreams.Net ldstreamers.png

Also: Ludum Dare IRC Channel!

As always, there is the IRC channel on irc.afternet.org called #ludumdare, drop by to hang out or get moral support :)

Here's an IRC web client link to it: #ludumdare

The Fire Dragon Studios team is in!

Honestly it's just two of us, but pretty excited about it! First Ludum Dare I'll have actually participated in but I've kept up with everything for years and played through a lot of the entries here!

We will end up using Unity since that's what we work with regularly and we'd love to do things with it we aren't quite used to, if we go 3d we will use blender (We will probably go 3d because neither of us is any great at art, but we both can throw together some simple 3d models pretty fast).

Eastern time zone so it's going to be a longggg while before I get any sleep with that 9pm start time.

Good luck everyone!

(Also if there are any decent artists looking for a team let me know)

And here we go

My second time attending, i hope it won't be a catastrophe like my first one. I don't have a single idea for most themes, let's hope i come up with something when the time comes.

Good luck to everyone!

Much nervous

Its the first Ludam Dare game jam for me, I founded a team on crowdforge.io, sketched out some ideas and are being excited/nervous.

We are 5 member team with 2 programmers (including me), 1 artist,designer,sound designer. We are hopping to finish the game plus the second programmer is not confirmed because he has not been online yet.

Abdul Munim.

EDIT The other programmer is in

Strap in and get ready to...

... oh yeah, pass out because of sugar overdose and sleep deprivation. Don't we all love it? Anyway, this is going to be my third LD, hopefully this time there won't be any bullshit compliling errors. Also, I made a wallpaper! LD41emWP/emBy_@Dingalong13.png Good luck to all, and let the Nutterboy Care-Bear be with you! hello there.png

Im joining the Ludum Dare !

My first ludum dare ever, very excited in a way. I'm very curious, about what the game will be about (when the voting ends and the results come) Hopefully I can do a nice piece! Good luck everyone! AND NOOB IF YOU SEE THIS I BELIEVE IN YOUR GAME! :)

LETS DO THIS BOIIIII

third time in ludum dare now i made a team with ma boi ectobit and this is the software we will be using

photoshop

unity

audacity(for sfx)

visual studio

blender(just in case of 3d)

im still deciding on what to use to do music so if anyone here wants to give me a sugestion put in on the comments pls

now lets get jamming

On the themes

I thought about it, and found out that themes that I like the most are the ones that will be the hardest for me to do because of my lack of game design skills.

Still hope those themes will win.

2nd jam!

Second time doing the dare for me, found someone to work with so im not alone this time. Good luck to ya'll!

My second attempt at a LudumDare jam.

Let's all hope the theme is a great and I'm looking forward to giving it a go, hopefully I can complete a game this year. :D

AS USUAL

ld41imin.gif

Using GameMaker Studio 1.4, maybe Flash, Maschine studio. Doing the jam this time (even though I'll probably use only 48 hours) because I'm doing it with my brother! I'll be doing mostly programming and graphics, he'll be doing mostly music and audio, but we're going to help eachother with everything.

Follow us on Twitter to see progress gifs!

dietzribi

kajnoon <--- my brother's Twitter, he just joined so give him a follow would you?

Necessity is the mother of invention, here's a little sound manager for Unity

I find myself waiting to work on sound until late in the jam. At that point I end up with audio overlap/cutting off, spending time deciding where to place my Audio Sources, etc... For that reason I built this little SoundManager https://github.com/webthingee/UnitySoundManager for Unity. This allows me to have one GameObject that holds a ton of audio. It can add and remove AudioSources as needed so that there is never a conflict. If you're in a pinch, and need a way to quickly manage some sound across your entire game... if it's something you think you could use it out.

I'm in! (Again)

It's not often that I get to participate in Ludum Dare (thanks, prior commitments), but this time around it fit my schedule well enough that I could squeeze it in. The tools I'll be using are BFXR, Audacity, Unity, Photoshop, and Spriter. I may even use Yarn (go check this out if you haven't heard of it) for dialogue in Unity this time around. I'll also try to get a timelapse recorded. I failed pretty spectacularly at it last time, but I think (hope) I've learned from my mistakes.

Alright, that's enough chitchat for now. Good luck and happy jamming!

Im In For the 3rd Time!

ld.gif

I'm gonna be using Blender and Unity as always. Gonna try to top my first one 'Don't Die Greg' (who am I kidding, who can beat that masterpiece of a game?).

GLHF ALL <3

We're in again

I'll go home soon, have a big sleep and we're gonna wake up for the best theme of our second LD! XD

Unity, Blender, etc...

Time to Party!

Look who's back in the LD
It's me, With a game for you to see

You might rate it well
you might rate it poor
at the end of the jam
I will enjoy my score

Stay up late
writing lots of scripts
I hope that I ate
committing all these bits

Got a pot full of coffee
Got a tower and a 'top
In a room real lofty
Hope I never have to stop

Tunes are blaring
My art skills are not
ScreenShotSaturday is caring
Tell me my sprites are hot

Crunch time coming
Crossing off the features
Bugs fixes and fixing
delete half my creatures

Scrap together sound
Better than some quiet
Ratings will abound
Hope hundreds Try it

I think my last was LD27? I can't remember. Really happy to be back!

I'm in

My second try at Ludum Dare. This time I like most of the themes. At least I don't think there's any theme that works against your game like LD40's =/

Good luck to everyone!

Second LD, here we go! \(°o°)/

Last time was suspiciously successful. Let's see how it's gonna be this time!

I'm IN

Hi everybody! Let's do this! GLHF!

If 2 Genres can be combined, Are they still incompatible?

Despite the controversy around the "Combine 2 incompatible genres (e.g. turn based racing)" theme, it made me wonder for a few days: "What genres are incompatible with each other?"

The example "turn based racing" doesn't help in my opinion. I think they are uncommon together but not incompatible. In racing, the goal is to reach the end line first (or within a time limit). If we make it turn based, then we need to pick in each turn the actions that will ensure we reach first after a number of turns (or within a limited number of steps or seconds). This may remove the need for quick reflexes which is common in racing (except if turns are timed), but I still think that this is a compatible combination.

What do you think?

First ludum dare

I've been wanting to participate for a while, I'll only get 1-2 days to do my entry, because of traveling but I'm not gonna wait until next time :)

YAAAAAAAAAA !!!!!!!

I'm really excited for LD 41 ! I'll be making a BEHIND THE SCENES VID about my experience (and hopefully game) on my YOUTUBE channel :) : https://www.youtube.com/channel/UC9Z1XWw1kmnvOOFsj6Bzy2g/videos?view_as=subscriber Best of luck everyone ! cheers :) !

PS : First picture depicts the passionated/happy game dev community ready to jump into the game jam ! The character in the second picture has overflowing imagination, a good luck token for all those with difficulties in coming up with game ideas :)headsSquish.png

Hello, Humans!

This is my first time in Ludum Dare, but I feel experienced watching channels like Randomise User and extraordinary Pixel Prophecy documentaries about making games in LDJam. I not decided yet if i run alone in Compo or with my friend, that not have very experience in making games. Whatever, I just have to wish a extraordinary competition for all.

I'm in for LD41!

I don't have a lot of free time this weekend, but I'd like to put something together in a few hours (a Micro-LD if you will!) using my Java game framework Katsu: https://github.com/berkano/katsu (based on LibGDX). Other tools typically used: Tiled, Photoshop, Ableton, OpenMPT, Audacity. Have fun everyone!

✦ Best Game Platform ✦

So since my previous post, I've decided that I will be participating in my first LD. Only time will tell between if I enter for compo or Jam. I'd like to hear some people's opinions on what is the best 'platform' to upload it as. In my opinion it's WebGL (HTML 5), because it can be easily accessed from your browser. Personally I'd use that so users don't have to go through the download hassle and all that. I'd like to know your opinions on this. squid ~

Hi everyone!!!

It’ll be my first game jam ever 😄 I hope that I’ll make good game with my team. Tools I’ll be using are Blender and Magicavoxel, maybe Photoshop and Bfxr too. GLHF!!

  • BFXR
  • Either cgMusic or bosca Ceoil (Depending on how lazy I am)

What is going on with the clock?

it says that there's 10 hours left so it should start at 02.00 IE, not 04.00? sorry my Math might be wrong tho lol kello.PNG timer.PNG

I'm in

This is my third Ludum Dare, last time I did my own proper art for the first time so I need to find something new to do this time.

I will be using: * Kha/Haxe. * Bfxr for sound fx. * Paint.net or Inkscape for graphics.

And good luck to everyone.

First time doing a game jam. Can't draw, can't make music, can write poor code. My plan is to finish something!

Good luck to y'all!

I'm in

I have limited time but I'm going to try to submit something simple just to participate and have some fun! I will use either JS w/ Phaser or Unity 2D. If time is a real constraint I may just do a terminal ASCII app. If I do graphics I'll be using ASEprite.

Im in !

Im in hope the theme will be good ! :) Btw good luck everyone and if you wanna team up with me contact me on ld or discord : Middle Prague Butter#9866

Can we do it ?

It's the first time we're going to apply! Wish us luck 😁!!! We already prepared our working environment with any 2D or 3D tools we may need for modeling, animation and of course our little friend Unity 😍! But we'll see, web platforms can be a possibility too ... Three engineers here who will build game mechanics, do art work and sound effects 😃

We are triggereddd!! Good luck everyone!

I'm in for LD41!

This Is My second official ludum dare :grinning:

and I'll Be using GameMaker Studio 2, aseprite and bosca ceoil/FL Studio!

LD 41 Hype!

With just under 9.5 hours to go, the current theme for me is sleep.

Catch you all soon.

Tools I'll be using: * Unity * Visual Studio * GIMP * Magickvoxel * Mixamo

Let's do this again!

I'll be joining again and this time I'll be using Moonscript + Löve. I'm making my own framework/template prior to the jam and if you want, feel free to use it! Here: https://github.com/saint11/MoonLove-Faststart

  • Akai MPK Mini (MIDI Keyboard)
  • Alloy FPS Mechanical Keyboard

Software

  • Aseprite for pixel art
  • Sublime Text for coding

  • Pretzl for stream music

I'm in #11.2

Only a couple of hours left until Ludum Dare 41 starts and I still haven't published my I'm in post. It's about time!

Last Ludum Dare I dropped out as I got sick on sunday and still had an unplayable mess at that point. This means I have another chance for my 11th entry this time. :smiley:

My goals for this LD are to stay focused, to plan more of the tasks and to invest some time in creating audio. I will most likely do the compo alone this time but I if things go well I will team up for Ludum Dare 42.

Tools

Engine: Godot
Code: VIM
Graphics: Krita, Gimp, Blender
Audio: LMMS, Audacity
OS: Arch Linux :penguin:

Good luck everyone and have a great weekend!

Mesh tool

For people who wants to live dangerously, here's a tool for creating 3d meshes:

https://www.meshpage.org/mesh_tool.php

I'm in

This is the first time I attend the ludum Dare event, I wish everyone good luck and have fun with it.

I will use Unreal 4 to create my game and based on the paragon asset which epic share with us, ^_^

Different Ratings For Individuals And Teams?

I don't want to sound like a butthurt or anything, because ratings isn't exactly what I crave for during LDs.

However, I've been thinking if it isn't a bit unfair that we compare games made by one person and then games made by for example, by five-man team.

From my experience, time is the most valuable resource during the competition, so a game can be obviously way more polished when you are not alone.

So this is my suggestion for potentional changes in the future: Having some kind of distinction in the ratings.

.

Have a beautiful weekend full of creativity and fun.

I'm in!

This is my first Game Jam ever ^^ i'm fully motivated and excited of doing a nice job and see the other people game's, nice to meet you all.

Tools using:

  • Game Maker.
  • GIMP.
  • PyxelEdit.
  • Audacity.

In for the compo!

Second time doing the compo, 7th total Ludum Dare.

Using Godot for the first time in LD, always used Unity before.
Also using GIMP, LVVM, and Audacity.

Let's do this!

Long time programmer, first time Jammer. I'll be entering a PhD program soon that will likely focus on Python for rapid prototyping but my Python is seriously rusty. Nothing quite like video games to push all of your skills! I'll be building almost everything from scratch, so any result I get is likely to be minimalistic at best. Feel free to watch over at https://mixer.com/lytebringr

I'll also be live on Twitch if you like a large delay before responses.

Hardware

  • 2 monitors (one dedicated to stream monitoring)
  • Wacom Cintiq for drawing
  • Razer Naga mouse
  • AT-2020 microphone
  • Assorted musical instruments and foley sources

Software

  • Photoshop for raster
  • Illustrator for vector
  • Audition for audio
  • Notepad++ (maybe something else) for code
  • pygame for I/O management
  • OBS for streaming

I'm In again! And once again with new tools...

Since somehow I always have more new things I wanna mess around with than time to actually prepare any of them, I will once again be participating with an entirely new tool set.

I'll be making my first ever 3D game and first ever Unity project for this LD's Compo... this is probably a bad idea, but whatever~

I'm in! Best of Luck to everyone!

This will be my second ever Game Jam! My first was HeartJam just a few weeks ago. I'll be working along-side my creative partner, LollipopCop.

Tools we'll be using: - GameMaker Studio 2 - Aseprite - Bosca Ceoil

Have a wonderful weekend everyone, and good luck!

We are ready

Our highschool team is ready to develop games and kick butt. We're all out of butt

I'm in! First time LD jammin'

Here to make something enjoyable, maybe learn a bit along the way.

I honestly don't know what I'll be using. Probably unity & visual studio. I've thrown out some lines to friends who might come to help me along the way here and there but since I've been a bit on the late side I'm probably doing this by my self.

Can't wait! I'll try to set up something to stream, but I * _really_ * need to get some sleep first.

I'm in!

Yes! Here we are again! I'm in for the 4th time in a row, this is my 1 year aniversary of Ludum Dare :)

I'll be doing it alone this time as my planned team partner was hold off by life and so.

I will be probably using my usual tool belt:

  • Unity 2017.1 Pro
  • Visual Studio 2015 Ultimate (or VS Code, I may switch this time)
  • Paint.Net (or Krita if I have the time to learn it)
  • Chronolapse

While waiting, it's time to play our older games: https://ldjam.com/users/togis/games

After the Ludum Dare I'll be streaming your creations on https://www.twitch.tv/togislp

That's right, I'm in it.

Hey gamedevvers! Long time I haven't participated in this event! I'm very excited to get going. I'll be putting my main project asside for this one, and hope I can complete something meaningful.

I'll be streaming on twitch.! and updating on TWITTER! LEZ GO!

giffy2.gif

I'm in!

This is my first Game Jam so i hope that i can finish my game and have fun :D

Tools:

  • Unity 2017.3.0f3
  • Abobe Photoshop CC
  • Audacity
  • GitHub
  • Trello

Considering EVERYONE

TLDR: Please make your games accessible to those with handicaps, thanks!

So as all you awesome folks prepare to make some epic games, I'd like to remind you all that some of us out there play games a little bit different then you may intend. For instance, my son (6yo) is color blind. After every LD we like to skim through the selection and play some. It's hard for me to explain sometimes the disappointment he (and many like him) experience when the game is hard to play due to color choices.

We understand you've got a ton on your plate this weekend, but we'd appreciate if you took a little time and helped us out. Even if it's a post-compo version, we'd be super grateful. Thanks in advance!

Here's a link if you need some pointers on making accessible games: http://gameaccessibilityguidelines.com/

"""""in"""""

sure let's have a go then, i might actually do something this time

Joining this LD41!

Hello fellow jammers! Esp. from Philippines and Japan! Ola!

So here's the tools I'll be using - Unity - My own helper classes (https://drive.google.com/file/d/1ZJ8kmGNW1iD-enH4JgiImXIORBdYKVs7/view?usp=sharing) - GIMP - Aesprite - Unity Plugins (Probuilder, DoTween, Unirx, et al) - and other bunch of free tools for the music

I'm mainly a programmer by day, so I have no idea what to do w/ the art; but I'll just let my experience and imagination guide me for this jam! Goodluck to everyone else! and dont forget to rest!

im in and im probably ready

im in. im a bit anxious about this but i want to try something different and learn a bit so ive decided to participate. as for tools im probably just gonna use GMS2, krita, bfxr (because idk anything about sound design lol), and way too much paranoid planning. heres to hoping nothing goes wrong

I'm in :)

My very first LD :) Wish me luck!

First time, I'm In!

Ever since two years back I've been wanting to take part in this jam but always seemed to miss the timing. But finally I got the time right! Probably going to try this on my own first to see what this is like. Can't wait to see everyone else's games!

Im in!

Tools

  • Godot Engine. (Game Engine)
  • Paint.NET (Krita if I have time to learn it) (Sprite Editor)
  • Bosca Ceol. (Music creation/Tracker software)
  • JFXR. (Sfx Creation tool)

Past Entry

I have participated once before, before the new site was created. It was under a different username, as I failed to transfer the account. I was a sophomore in high school at the time, so it is only fitting that I participate again as a sophomore in College. - http://ludumdare.com/compo/ludum-dare-30/?action=preview&uid=38715

In before...

...everyone starts complaining about the theme.

Yeah, didn't like most of the options that were up for vote. But truth be told, that's because I already have a few game ideas on my head and they didn't fit the themes. I guess most participants are in the same boat, so let's all try to not blame the theme for our lack of creativity.

My plan for tonight is to think of a concept and set everything up and then have a good long night of sleep. Saturday and Sunday I plan to work from 4 to 6 hours, with the first few on Twitch (or Youtube live) being more of a tutorial for Quick. But that depends of the game I'll be making.

Good luck everyone

I'm in!

And this time it's all about Javascript!

The goal for this jam is to go through Ludum with far less stress than previous jams.

I am in

This is my first time(last year i signed in but couldn't publish my game) I will be using:

Unity 3D (Game Engine) Photoshop (Sprite Editor) Bfxr (Sound Effects)

First time ludum dare

Hello,

I'm DrSkort and It's my first time participating in ludum dare. Hopefully I'll develop a great game.

The tools I'll be using:

  • Aseprite - Graphics
  • Ableton - Music
  • Eclipse (with my framework) - Programming

Anyone who want's to follow me can see my progress on twitter: https://twitter.com/DrSkort

Good Luck and have fun everyone !

I am a banana

Didn't expect that, did you?

Anyways, I'm in, unless something terrible and/or unexpected happens (like an alien robot Goofy from outer/inner space materializes in my bedroom and steals my computer, you'll never know).

Since other people are listing their tools, here's mine: - Language: C - Libraries: SDL2, although I'm using my software renderer for graphics (SDL2 for rendering the pixel array, plus window handling etc). stb_image for loading png files - Compiler: gcc. mingw-w64 cross-compiler when building for Windows (no Mac build ever coming since I don't own an Apple device) - Code editor: vscode - OS: Linux Mint - Graphics editors: Pinta & GIMP - Audio: I doubt I have time for audio, but very likely bfxr & Audacity. For music... I don't know. LMMS or PixiTracker.

That's it. Let's try to have some fun, okay? (Nope.)

I'm in! (who would have guessed that)

This time i wanna try to get a bit out of my comfort zone. I'll bring some paint brushes and we're probably going to try a different engine than unity. That will probably go terribly wrong, but hopefully be very helpful for extending my skillset.

Also LDJ 40 game: Hotel Nero https://ldjam.com/events/ludum-dare/40/hotel-nero

I'm in

Hoping to finish a game this time round :p

*Unity

*Krita

*paint.net

*VS code

*sfxr

*Bosca Ceoil

Cookies?! First time and ready to have fun!

I'm in for my first time! Since everyone is posting their tools, here's mine:

  • Unity (C#)
  • Photoshop
  • FL Studio

I have 3 main goals:

  • Finish a game
  • To keep a small scope
  • and finally Have fun!

I wish good luck to everyone!

Anthony

My second Jam! Please not in the face xD

This is our second try in a Jam, as a novice in the videogame desing world, this is so interesting and we want to do our best try! Please comment our work and we will try to comment yours :)

See ya!

i'm in.

title says it. hoping to not leave this ludum dare depressed, but i've made it quite a challenge for myself.

  • graphics: krita
  • music: assortment of pocket operators + audacity
  • sfx: bfxr
  • code: will be using a homebrew stack of SDL2 and C++. the aim is to deploy the final game with emscripten for the web.

my starter code is over here: https://github.com/paked/basin. contains needed cmake tools for an emscripten + sdl project with native and web deploys, as well as a small set of helper classes for game related things (input, resource management, etc.). it's pretty lightweight, if i wake up early tomorrow i'll probably add a tilemap to it.

I'm in!

Gonna make something short and sweet :)

Construct 3 or GMS2

My toolbox

Unlike I stated in my "I'm in" post, I won't actually be writing a game from scratch this time either. I'll be using: - Godot Engine (3.0 is finally out and documented!) as the engine - MagicaVoxel + GIMP for graphics - Microphone + Audacity for audio, whatever that'll be - Sonic Pi if I get inspired to make music? - The Fediverse for social mediaing :) (For more information: joinmastodon.org)

Not A Lot Of Time

My game is going to be ugly but my goal is to make it as simple as I can with no loss in gameplay. Let's see how I do since I work tonight I am gonna have a late start I am just going to try and get something done! :) Wish me luck!

We are in

Hi there,

So for this LD, two 1hgj Veterans are teaming up. It is DevilLime and Laguna. We are supported by ValenciaOrange who will do awesome pixelart graphics.

We are going to use C# and SFML.NET with a premade JamTemplate. Other tools will be reaper (for music), Aseprite (for pixelart) and google drive / discord for communication.

glhf to all participants!

I'm in!

I haven't done LD or a game jam in a couple years! My time is going to be a bit limited this weekend, but I've been so desperate to make a game, I just have to participate. Even if I'm not able to give it 100%, I'm still hoping I'll make something neat.

Anyways, I'm super excited. I can't wait till I'm done work so I can get started!

First Ludum dare!

Hi! I’m a french indie game developper, this is my first Ludum dare! Software: Unity 5 and Blender. My previous projects: https://www.instagram.com/thibautblanca/ My twitch channel: https://www.twitch.tv/houdinifr Good luck everyone!

Contemplating.

Wondering if I should go for using unreal and 3D art(since that's my main skill) or something more outside the comfort zone with either unreal/2D or another game framework, I'm leaning towards 3D but my travel plans means that I'm short on time and got other things to think about...

Alright, here we go.

First Ludum Dare. Scrictly a hobbyist as far as game dev goes. It just fascinates me.

Going to be using Unity, Krita, and Bosca Ceoil.

Wish me luck.

Im In again

Getting kind off nervous about what the theme is going to be but still can’t wait to get stared! I guess god of war is going to have to wait!

Im in!; :)

This will be awesome :)
