I did my own models and shaders (I actually wrote my whole render pipeline on my own), but stock sound and composited together stock textures (targets use a baked composite using custom masks, terrain uses splat mapping and distortion). I focused mostly on my shaders, using some quick placeholder primitives as assets until fairly late in the jam.

I ended up creating what might be the first-ever non-RTX game to feature physically-accurate water refraction, effect which involves a lot of custom vertex and lighting shaders and a pipeline organized around them.

I'm an engineer at my day job but going into this Jam I decided I'd focus on most things outside of programming, so I kept my programming pretty simple using only about a quarter of time for it. In my game I made everything myself except for the player animation as I sadly ran out of time but I did rig the model myself: https://gizimo.itch.io/mouth

• Modeled a mecha character in Unity and animated it using Unity’s animation clips. No rigging needed since the mesh doesn’t need to deform.
• Wrote a bunch of shader graphs for most of the visuals, and a post process outline shader. Animating between them and blending between different colors.
• Followed some VFX tutorials for making a jet engine thruster VFX, shield VFX, laser VFX, slash VFX.
• Also have intro, win, and lose game sequences.
• I made a destructible level using Unity’s terrain system to punch holes in it, and spawn in “Panels” with some random animated properties that get “sucked in” to the black hole. Spent a lot of time on this concepting it and then making it performant enough so I could get the whole level crumbling without lagging out.

Sadly all of this took so long I didn’t spend too much time on making the gameplay as deep as I wanted to and it was hard to balance the boss. I thought it was too easy but everyone playing it was struggling.

Every art asset in my 3D Platformer game Ooblek was self made  for the jam

/jam/acerola-jam-0/rate/2582914

It is shorter to list the things I did not make for the jam
-- the character's shape model [I used vroid studio for the model shape -- then used blender and paint.net to texture that model. character art is... beyond my ability in two weeks.
-- the walk and idle animations. [I had some annoyance with one of my animations not working on multiple models, so i reverted to some open-license mocap animations]

everything else was made during the game jam, and live streamed on twitch. Ended up with a lot less 3d models than I wanted in game, but happy I did everything from scratch. It made the whole experience ... electric. There was no time to judge anything as it was being made. just make it-- throw it in the pile -- and come back to use it in game. No way to make the deadline otherwise. So many things go scrapped completely. others quickly reused in ways they werent originally intended -- because deadline...  SFX were made in a panic induced rush...

my game has almost everything made by me (code , models , textures ,  shaders ,  etc ) 

but I used free sound effects

you can try it in here : Fractime by blured games 

For my game I made all the 3D assets, the animations, the voice over, shaders and scripts all from scratch just for this Jam  

It was quite a marathon to be honest, but got through the other side in the end!

Let me know what you think?

Made (almost) everything myself, including the engine! (Although, i’ve been actively developing the engine since july of 2022, so I don’t know if this counts lol)

There were only two things that weren’t self-made, as far as I remember:

• The UI fonts, which were taken from royalty-free font faces.
• The sound effects, which were created from samples from royalty-free and/or public domain sources.

I made everything except the sfx and music. Here it is: /jam/acerola-jam-0/rate/2580862

i wrote most of the shaders (i used an existing CRT shader as the base for one of mine, but modified it) and the whole engine for my game

also did bitmap font rendering entirely in a shader (shader gets the font and an array with the characters to write)

I decided to model the map of the game off of my own house, so i designed every asset to match the furniture around my house. The music and sound were also made by me, and I’m personally really happy with the music as it really helps create a homey and casual feel. https://s-0ooo.itch.io/my-house-is-not-my-home

All assets except audio was made by me

mine uses pretty obviously self made assets

i warn you "aberration" is a pretty good descriptor for them

I think the only things I didn't make were the background image and the font. Art is literally just colored polygons, but yeah that, music, sound fx are all mine. Was working on making my first shader for an energy shield mechanic, but had to cut back on scope

I learned how to 3D model this jam, and made all the SFX and music in the last 12 hours of the jam haha. The enemies are pixel  art and I also learned how to make shaders. Everything was made from scratch for this jam and I would love if you checked it out! https://sevadusk.itch.io/project-astra
