I’m in!
Hi everyone. This is going to be my first game jam. I’m pretty new to making games. I started a programming degree a few years back but had to drop out due to ill health. I’ve recently got back into programming and I’m having a great time slowly learning to use Unity and Blender to make simple games.
I’m really excited to join you all for the jam in a couple of weeks. I’m certain my game is going to be very basic and probably quite rubbish, but it’ll be a great learning experience and a small step on the path to making something cool!
I’m not sure if I am going to be solo or in a small team this time; I have a couple of friends that are interested but it may be slightly too short notice. Either way, should be good fun.
Catch you all in a couple of weeks!

Last Alakajam I worked off an idea that very quickly scaled out of control and despite a release, was unfinished. Nonetheless I was happy either way and I'm super hyped to go again on something completely new.
I'm a solo programmer who may or may not enlist the help of their sister for music whilst I handle art and logic.
Tools of choice:
This is my first time in a game jam, and hopefully my first time completing a game!

Im going solo 12 years old and been programming for 4 years now! ready to see what i make!
solo that is
Hello all,
second time Alakajamin'. I will not be ready and I'll start a little bit late on friday but it will be my first solo experience.
I'll be using the classic tools
Unity (Because it's the only one I know a bit)
Paint.net (because I'm in love with paint)
Visual Studio community (because Unity comes with it)
I'm usually the artist (2d artist/DA) so it will be a big challenge for me but I think it's what jams is all about.
See you on the flippity!
This will be my 8th 48 hour game jam. I've entered every Ludum Dare since 35 and the first Alakajam.
What I'm using:
My last Alakajam entry(Alchemic Archer):
While I think I did pretty well on the art for this game, but there were a ton of design issues that needed fixing.
My last Ludum Dare entry(The Crushed Sky):
This game did very well in graphics and mood, but once again the game was mostly just good looking. Although, that was what I was aiming for…
I'm hoping to make a game that is fun this time instead of a game with a good aesthetic like my previois two game jam games. I'm gonna aim for the top 10% in at least one category. ^-^
I was supposed to be practicing my skills in making music, but recently I've just been having fun with pixel art. >.>
This is something I'm working on right now:
Anyway, good luck and have fun!
