Hey all, I've done a bunch of mini-LDs, but this is my first Big One.

I've got a few concepts rearing, so can't wait to see what the theme is, and if it will fit. Otherwise, I got my ideation toolkit handy, and hopefully come up with something nice and brand new.

I'll be using my usual array of Godot, Blender, Krita (plus Wacom tablet), and freesounds.org + bfxr.

Good luck to everyone attending, and it will be interesting to know who from the South West of England is attending :slight_smile:

In Britain, so missed the first few hours, as I was snoozing. Woke at 7, went for a run, trying to think of some ideas. Got these two:

1) (unstable emotions) you're new in a village, and have a mission: go and buy the newspaper. You talk to the other villages on the way to the newsagent. The conversations can all end badly, as it's a town of loonies. Chat carefully, survive, and get your newspaper.

2) (unstable physics) I've never made a platformer, so this could be my first. You have to place the platforms, then traverse tham to get to a destination. There can be many levels of this. Stretch-goal: the structures also can't take a lot of weight (like the bridges in Poly Bridge.

Right! Let me go make a coffee, come back, flip a coin, and get started!
