This was my first Ludum Dare so I had the idea to make a jam making game for my first game jam. I wasn't really sure what the actual game mechanic or win/lose conditions were going to be, just that the player would be making jam.

Day one was mostly just making art and writing the systems that would allow for picking up fruit and putting it into a 'pulper' to produce jam.

By day two I still didn't have any more of an idea of what the game was going to actually be (Overcooked but for making jam?) so I just kept making art and refining the 'crafting' system. I was also away at CampJS IX so there were plenty of other distractions to get in the way of working on the game.

It wasn't until day three (when I got home) that I had a bit of an idea of what I could do to turn the game-mechanic prototype into something that resembled a finished game. Unfortunately, by then there wasn't overly much time to actually do most of it so I just ended up doing whatever there was time for.

The result is a simple jam-making puzzle game. You have a list of jams to make, some are easier than others.

See if you can make all the jams!

It's almost been a week since the jam finished and I only just set up the theming for the Itch page for my entry: The I in Team (the title made more sense with earlier ideas for the game...)

It's a simple puzzle game where you can swap between two characters that need to work together to navigate a dungeon and escape... but only one of them will escape!

Give it a try and don't forget to rate it. Let me know if you make it out :)
