The 2nd Alakajam will start in just half a week and preparations are coming together nicely!
Up until now the jam already got quite some attention for theme submission and voting, on Twitter, reddit and a whole bunch of "I am in posts" here on the website!

Opening Ceremony Friday, Feb 23rd, 6:30pm

The 2nd Alakajam will start on Friday, Feb 23rd 7pm UTC. @Wan and @Aurel300 are frantically working on an opening ceremony hosted by Aurel300 and DanaePlays, which will take place at Danae's twitch Channel at 6:30pm.
Starting with the lowest ranked themes of the shortlist, themes will be discarded out one after another until the final theme will be announced at 7pm.

What to do now

• If you have not yet voted on the theme shortlist, do so now.
• Write an "I am in post" here on the blog to introduce yourself or your team.
• Spread the word about Alakajam on twitter, reddit or any other social media network. #alakajam
• Join us for the opening ceremony with the theme unveiling

This will be my first Alakajam and second game jam ever. My tools will be:

Unity,
Some tool to make programmer art with, probably MS Paint,
BFXR

I'll be opting out of the art and sound categories for the scoring, since I'm more of a programmer than anything. Looking forward to this!

Hello everyone,
I'm really excited to join. This is my second game jam after I joined Ludum Dare 40.

I'll be using:
Unity
Paint.net or magicavoxel
Blender
Bosca Ceoil

I hope you enjoy the game jam

After racking up enough experience i've decided to try a game jam. I'm using gamemaker as an engine

Hey there! My friend (who posted last night) and I are teaming up for our first jam! Our team is as follows:

• @horizontale with music, sound effects, and art!
• @nrathbone with design, code, and possibly more art!

We'll be using GameMaker Studio 1.4 for the engine, Ableton Live 9 for all things sound, and Aseprite for the pixel art. Can't wait!

A good day is coming and if I do not find someone to collaborate with, I do not think I would like to participate, since only 48 hours later, with my knowledge, I find it very difficult to finish something playable.
I leave here the link to the team that I opened https://crowdforge.io/jams/alakajam/teams/1074
Here I leave my instagram profile so you can see something that I have worked

I am.

Not sure I'll have the time to commit properly, but it's been a while since I did a game jam and I'd like to do something small at least.

Given that, PICO-8 all the way for this one.

Im TheTacticalBanana,
