I missed 5 LDJAMs since LD52.

I used to be very active and excited to participate but even with my wife, family and friends support; I lost creativity and confidence. I was not able to produce ideas, my scope was messed up and I did not believed I could make something in 2 or 3 days.

I found out about LD57 two hours into the Jam. I woke up and challenge myself to make something simple with a small scope. I setup a quick mechanic and level, modeled the assets in blender, look for sounds and polished them and proceded. My wife bravely tested my game multiple times. I accepted I had to cut things out and reduce it. I only had 24 hours to make it. I had plans for the weekend already scheduled.

I took a leap of faith and posted my silly game.

Thanks for playing it! You never know how much a simple comment helps people. Appreciate your time and objective feedback.

Thank you very much for playing and rating my little game! :two_hearts:

What I learned

I'm an overthinker and usually overprepared for events; after multiple attempts I was burnout and couldn't participate on previous LDJams.

I was laying in bed when noticed a LDJAM stream, I was not aware that it was going to happen that weekend. I challenge myself to a single mechanic, a bite-size web experience, where I could polish my stronger traits. Discuss the game with my wife and proceeded to setup the game models in blender.

I had to kill my darlings, since I only had 1 day to make it: a smaller level, single camera angle, no dialog or humor and shooting mechanic. Submit it at 7 am CST on a Sunday and went to my planned commitments.

Previously; I was accused of flowing the board promoting my games so I kept it to 3 posts, and focus on playing games.

I woke up to my best rated game so far. I was not expecting this! My goal was to have at least one stat within the first one hundred of compo.
