Sounds like fuuuuuuuun!

22

I’m totally going to participate. I really hope there are more game jams in the future. :slight_smile: Awesome news.

23

Sure did! (Crafty Link Post :P)

24

Wish I had the time for it. But has my 100% attention, haha.

25

I might take a shot. Though I have 0 artistic skill xD

  • any the rules can be amended to allow Mac game submissions also? I understand why letting mobile games in might be a huge headache, but this just strikes me as odd given that you have a Mac Editor, but it can’t generate Windows executables. Since you’ve usually got at least one Mac on screen during the Twitch sessions, it seems like you could find a way to judge Mac entries as well. :slight_smile:
27

@. Yes, absolutely! I have a machine I can run them on. The choice for Windows was made due to available hardware around. I’ll update the rules, Good call!

28

It’s unfortunately my birthday this weekend so I plan on being incredibly intoxicated.
That said, good luck to all participants! I look forward to all the cool stuff you guys make :smiley:

Bump in the Night!? Ok this sounds fun actually… I’m in! What a challenge! What is that like 3 days? Well I’m not gonna lie I’m using some pre-existing skeletal assets (Character models) but I will also be making new level props to go with the Halloween theme! Hope that’s cool because I’m doing it anyways! Not for 1 month but for that sweet taste of victory! xD

31

You rock! Thank you. Time to talk the kids into this.

32

I’d join in if I could just for the pure fun and opportunity to push myself and learn more, that alone is a prize that’s hard to put a dollar value on. :slight_smile:

33

Nice! I’ll see if I can make one in that time :smiley:

34

For this, are we able to use music/sound that was developed before the start of the competition period?
Can we have our company logo developed prior to the competition at the beginning of the project as a splash screen?
Can we use concept art developed prior to the competition period?

35

Looking forward to this! Got a rough idea too… What timezone is the closing time on?

**EDIT

Also, by midnight on the 26th, do you mean before midnight 27th?

Cheers!

36

Correct - maybe should say 11:59:59 pm?

To clarify for - Sunday is fair game!

37

We’re not going to get terribly deep into investigating the inception of sound, splash, and concept art assets. Our judgement criteria is focused on theme use, fun, and visuals.

38

Hey Swift, they didn’t say you can’t so I assume yes! But I doubt a game knows your working on before won’t be counted. Just show what you can do in 3 days, Unreal, let us know if we can’t because I planned on it!

Edit - I see the answer, cool I’m just using a few old props. All the BP and actual game mechanics will be new for this comp!

39

Cheers man, what timezone though? haha!
