This is my first Alakajam but I'm a jam veteran for last 4-5 years doing various jams.
Can check my jam games and other experimental projects here:

Will make a 2D Unity game for sure.
Dev stream will be on and off for this weekend. Follow to get notified when I go online!

Just come and say hi!

I don't always make a mind map, but when I do, I make it self-referential.

I haven't decided, but am just posting this here in case anyone is stuck for ideas. I'm leaning towards something plant-based right now.

WoooHoooo! Thanks to @DaFluffyPotato for suggesting such an awesome theme!

I'm done brainstorming with this cool idea. Its very special and inspired by one of my favourite PC games! Also done with a one-page game design document. Its 12:30 AM here. I'll probably work for one more hour (just the concept and stuff) and then sleep till 7:30 AM. If you want help with your game design document, take this template! Short and to the point. (I'm using google docs by the way for the document)

Mantra: 1 line sentence refering to the UX to always remember throught development (ex: Epic robot battles with multiple story paths)
Summary; A short brief
Features: List of mechanics and unique characteristics
Target Platform: Where do I intend to publish my game
Target Audience; Profiles of who's going to play my game
Game: Layout of every detail of the game (this usually branch on more points specific to that game, like story, power ups, multiplayer, etc)
Interface: This includes player controls and how's the input (mouse, keyboard, controller)
Artstyle: Mostly reference to the art people of your vision
Music/Sound: What kind of music/sound you want and how is going to play
Development Plan: A very crude layout of the needed task to develop the game with a time estimate

I'll be using Game Maker Studio 2 and see how things go.

Better late than never.

Our team is the same as last Alakajam:
@bradur
@M2tias
@Juutis

Am I supposed to say what I'll be using?
Okay then.

• Game: Gamemaker: Studio
• Music: Beepbox
• Sfx: Bfxr and maybe beepbox, too. I don't know.
• Everything Else: Uh…

Good luck to all!

Yeah, I know I shouldn't be doing this at the last hour, but I'm gonna use ENIGMA instead of pygame because I just have a little more experience with it. That's it. My headphones are charging. They want to say hi to all of you.

i'll be using gamemaker studio and whatever tools i deem necessary for what i'm making. it depends.

We'll be using the following:

• Engine: Godot
• Graphics: Aseprite and the GIMP
• Music: Bosca Ceoil
• Sounds: SFXR

We may also mess around with using tiled for making levels.

We'll be using:

• Unity,

• Photoshop,

• Maya,

• Visual Studios

• FMOD

• Illustrator

  Can't wait for the Jam.
