I had been waiting for this weekend for a long time, it was Molyjam weekend! The Molyjam was(still is?) a gamejam based on the tweets of @PeterMolydeux, a Peter Molyneux parody. Many/all of the ideas are ridiculous, but they’re often brilliant. The Molyjam will hopefully help people realise that ridiculous ideas can lead to amazing games. My game, however, was WAR DOG.
Last night I made a game in 0 hours. The clocks went back for daylight saving, and that hour OUTSIDE OF TIME ITSELF is perfect for a mini-gamejam. The game I made with my theme of ‘Sleep’ is…functional? If you dare to play “Go To Sleep” you can do so here (Unity Webplayer). And also check out the other games at http://0hgame.eu/
Just a PSA, for those in the New York area. Parsons/The New School & Babycastles are hosting a gamejam this weekend. Come down and make a game! No matter your skill/experience you’ll have fun and get really tired and want to cry. Click here for more info.
For those on the west coast, TIGJam is also this weekend, so NO EXCUSES
UPDATE : Gamejam complete. See results here.
So, another Ludum Dare, another game of questionable quality. 48-hrs to make a game based on this round’s theme, Escape. Last weekend, I had very few free hours, so made sure to keep my game super simple. It turned out OK considering, I wouldn’t want to keep working on it, but it holds up enough to not be embarrassing…
