This is a dedicated thread for posting any cool. interesting or funny stuff which occurs during your jam games development. 

I appreciate that some folks might be worried about being plagiarized - or breaking the rules by over-explaining the game before voting - so try to post things in an out-of-context way when it seems more appropriate to do so.

Good Posts:

  • introduce a small element of the game in an intriguing/mysterious way; e.g. "here's our protagonist, what are they thinking?" 
  • small .gifs etc. showing movement/interactions you're proud of.
  • stuff going wrong, funny bugs and all that good stuff.
  • anecdotes of funny moments working with your team; misunderstandings, in-jokes etc. which develop during the project. 

Bad Posts:

  • explain too much about the game; e.g. "here's our protagonist who is a gardener who has to defeat the Queen Bee"
  • directly ask for help (let's have a different thread for that, if and when people need it).

Think of this more as a social/fun thread so that you can see snippets of what people are working on, just like you would if you were jamming in the same physical location as each-other.

Ive submitted our project to itchio, but i dont see how to enter it to the game jam. Sorry this is our first jam!

Submitted

go to the jam page (you're already there but in the community part)  and click on overview, and submit by the big red button on top of the page, your page needs to be public

Submitted

Thank you! I didnt realize that i had to make my project "public".  After a few hours of sleep i was able to see where that was! Thanks again! :)
