Attention model sculptors and pixel miners! @dollarone, @kyle3wynn and I are teaming up for the jam but we're still looking for someone who can make it look beautiful!

Let us know in IRC or on crowdforge if you're interested :)

EDIT: Welcome aboard, @James_Deans_Jeans! :)

This is going to be my first jam, and my first game 1

aj4y • 7 years ago on 3rd Alakajam! 

I am still learning how to use Unity, so Unity will be my engine

And I'll be using Gimp for image manipulation.

Currently, I am trying to mimic tutorials,
Hopefully, I'll be able to create a playable game during the jam.

My Alakajam is Ready! 2

Wow! So happy I found this. I previously joined Ludum Dare and was so happy with the experience, I can't wait for the next one. Thankfully, I found Alakajam!

So here's my toolbox:

  • Ol' trusty Unity
  • Photoshop
  • Blender (if I decide to do 3D)
  • sfxr

My rule number 1 is keep is small and simple! A straightforward but extremely hard to follow rule. Hopefully, I'll be able to finish a complete game!

Seasoned jammer, first time alakajammer! 2

Hi! My name's Gabe! I'm really exited to particiate in this jam for the first time. A friend of mine has done the alakajam since the start and recommended I do it to, so here I am.

I haven't decied what engine I'm using yet, it depends on the game I decide to make. But I usually use Paint.NET (went back to it from GIMP) for graphics, and SFXr for sounds.

I might stream the process (depending on how busy I am outside of the jam). I only have one monitor so I'm not sure how to set it up comfortably, but I'll figure something out!

Anyways, happy to meet yall!

Hey folks, another ludumdare refugee here.
This is my first alakajam, here's what I'll be using:

  • exengine (my game engine)
  • blender (for 3d model creation)
  • aseprite (if I decide to use textures)
  • sunvox (if I get around to adding any audio at all lol)

I'll be using the web port of my engine, which compiles to js/webgl via emscripten. I don't have time to sort out webgl 1 support so I'll be stuck with webgl 2 for the jam. I mean technically webgl 1 support is there, but it relies on a lot of extensions that not every implementation has (looking at you, safari >_>)

(oh and if the "no ui" theme wins I'll commit seppuku!)

I'm in! 1

I'm a developer and work from home, and this is where the magic happens! It's a bit messy but I had to keep it real to my nature hehe.

I don't really know which technologies I'm going to use, since it's my third jam, but I'll probably end up using Phaser as I have some experience with it. I'd also love to make something with multiplayer features for this jam, but I'm still coming up with ideas about how to do it.

For audio I'll probably try to learn how to use Bfxr and Bosca Ceoil.
I'm also pretty bad at art, so I usually try to avoid it as much as I can. We'll see what happens!
