what if i will put already today as i joined (and today started doing) game which already is unbelievably big as for time i spent on it? like i use some scratch-like editor so i do it quickly but if someone'd play already today its already much…

also - is it good if i will put it here already today and every day add more levels to game up to end of jam?

u have to make something new, usually your allowed to reuse assets then to pull something that allready been worked on

and yea its what i do in terms of preparing i made an empty page and your allowed to add to it, before the jam ends, if i read it correctly your even allowed to do bug fixes even in voting stage [rovided u say and its not adding or mkaing anything new.,

(+1)(-1)

1) i didnt said that im reusing assets, i only said im using scratch-like engine so i build games quickly (right now i have 50 level long game and i started doing it today…)

2) i meant to publish demo right now but wait to end of jam to publish full game (like i will fight in this jam by number of levels/game length and will update game every day up to end of jam)

3) its a new thing (even if few concepts i use again)

That's very impressive. And it all follows the rules (only 2 colors)?

yep it follows. thx although my speed is only because i have hoards of free time and that i know good tools to make games quickly. to the end of jam im gonna have that minimum of 256 levels (if not 512 but we'll see how much my computer could survive cause im on a potato)

Isn't it a bit much? :) 

If I had your time I would focus on polishing the game and maybe add more features, with only a few levels to showcase the game. Quality over quantity.


but it will have its own quality too. 

fun levels, related to things. or just harder ones. i have too much ideas for levels so im just putting it all in one…

it will be even divided in sections of levels…

(somewhen i needed to make something bigger than ≈ 20 levels…)

and even a little spoiler: 


-----------

finally decided to move out of idea of adding to this jam. 

gonna keep that game as a personal project instead.

thx and bye :)

That's a shame. Screenshots look really interesting. Remind me of VVVVVV (the savage platformer)

i know but right before adding it to jam i saw something and decided to not add to this jam 

(dont ask what i saw cause i dont want set this chat on fire…)

As you wish. Let me know if you publish on itch (outside of this jam). Happy to give it a try.
