Hey folks! I have a livestream here: www.twitch.tv/ThunderAwesome

We’re doing the Ludum Dare Jam. I will be using Flashpunk inside FlashDevelop and the Ogmo Editor (for levels). So, ActionScript 3.0. I got some teammates: two artists, one sound designer. I’m the programmer. The artists will be using Photoshop and Illustrator. The sound designer is using Cubase 6 and SoundForge and a fancy Yamaha keyboard.

We’re also doing the Indie Speed Run, so we’ll be blending the themes and elements. It should be a fun and interesting challenge! Especially since we all want to see The Hobbit…haha.

Whatever you just said...I'm in!

Making a game about slugs. Always a fan of using MagicaVoxel. Gotta love them voxels!! Making some decent progress (started late).

Managed to get sludge trails working. Jiggly physics is pretty cool. And got some tommy gun bullets (which fire salt!). Now just gotta get the core gameplay in there.

I lost count of how many game jams I have done (30+ for sure!). Most of them have been Global Game Jams and Ludum Dare. I feel like one thing is constant as I add more game jams to my belt. I tend to have smaller windows of time available to participate due to life getting in the way.

I will be jamming most of Saturday and any other tiny windows of opportunities that pop up! Wish me luck! Excited to see what the theme is.

I've been down in the dumps for a majority of this year. I'm hoping this weekend game jam will spark joy in me once again. It has been far too long since I have had any energy or desire to work on games.

Here's hoping for a reignited passion for making games!
