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

https://itch.io/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!

https://itch.io/jam/acerola-jam-0/rate/2562492

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: https://itch.io/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)

https://itch.io/jam/acerola-jam-0/rate/2582906

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

https://itch.io/jam/acerola-jam-0/rate/2581693

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

https://itch.io/jam/acerola-jam-0/rate/2557875

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

https://itch.io/jam/acerola-jam-0/rate/2581925

Aside from using Unity UI stuff, everything is made from scratch in my game. Wave visualizations, the ending songs, and a working wave synthesizer and retro-style tracker for composing music!

I so very wish I had more time with the Jam so I sould do more with the characters I made, but alas I am proud of my work regardless!

This is my game, In the Mood for Mood: https://itch.io/jam/acerola-jam-0/rate/2583246

-I 3D modeled the interior. I wrote a script to generate the model for the bolts of fabric.

-I made a cheesy little song loop

-I drew most of the patterns

- I wrote all of the scenarios and outcomes

- I took the picture of lower manhattan in the splash screen

I made the music, characters, voice lines, particle effects, and all the meshes (excluding the anatomy model) for my game to create a unique visual and audio experience. It's more of a interactive art piece then a game.

Rate Gravity's Gauntlet by Neon gravity for Acerola Jam 0 - itch.io

Unfortunately it is fatally broken due to a very dumb copy-paste error and can't be finished, but i hope you'll enjoy it as it is.
I'll upload fixed version as soon as jam ends so people can play and complete it if they're interested, but for now I don't want them to judge the full version instead of a legitimate one, even if I can have jam version still available for judges (idk if I can).
All visuals are made by me (as well as code ofc).
https://itch.io/jam/acerola-jam-0/rate/2583332

I did all of the artwork, story, and coding for my game. Sounds were borrowed, but one soundtrack (inside a cafe) was created by me:

https://novicearts.itch.io/memoirs-of-kaizer-academy

every single sound, music/ambient track, script, graphic,  mechanic, so forth, were all done by me! really proud of that!

Hi LapoLinguini! You already checked my game! But in case you didn't know, everything in Shipkeeper was made by me, with the exception of the sound effects, which I obtained from Opengameart. Some fun facts you may like to know:
- If you got curious and checked the game's git project, you would notice there are various sound effects that have "_mod" at the end of the name. Those are sound effects I modified using Audacity. Simple but effective. One example: The cracking sound you hear when exploring the ship, is actually a door cracking, but adding reverb, making it slower and lowering the pitch.

- All pixel art was made by me. Here is something fun:

The blob was planned to be more like a monster that had the capacity of spreading, and it was going to have three types of blobs, the first one is the one in the game, which attacks with a spike. The next one was supposed to throw acid, and the last one was supposed to be the blob's core, and if you managed to kill it, the whole blob was destroyed. Of course, I didn't had the time for the whole thing, and only the spike one was made. XD

- I also made the music track for the intro! Of all my skills, this one is the most lacking. Most of the time I have no idea what every filter is doing so I just go with my guts and start adding random stuff until I found something that I like how it sounds. For the composition I'm a bit more experienced but everything is by ear, really.

I recently made a second track for the game's trailer, and I published them in my youtube channel
https://youtube.com/playlist?list=PLuWnqz4Yd7OPuE96JM8RlQnNTE_HffbvQ&si=6hPWdDxF...

I started making digital music with Dance Ejay 7 (which is very ancient) and then tried Fruity Loops (which is now FL Studio) and it confused the heck out of me. Recently I started using BandLab and has been much more easier to learn. Still nothing professional tho XD My account there is called SilentCassette

- And finally, all programming by me, which is my actual profession. Did a lot of Computer systems and engineering and now I'm here doing games :p

Hey! I made all of the assets for my game, aside from the music and sound effects.

I'm really happy with how the dynamic lighting looks, and I have a really neat sprite stacking "system" (if you can call it that) with the upgrades, similar to The Binding of Isaac.

everything but the music is made by me, sfx are a grey area cause sampling existing sfx and modifying them to fit your needs is pretty much the only way to do okay sound

With the exception of some CC0 audio from freesound, I made every asset in my game from scratch.

https://hey-tack.itch.io/a-short-walk-in-the-snow

I made the music for the game using LMMS. I made some manual tweaks to the sound with Audacity. Any video / gifs for the game were edited using Shotcut.

I was the most proud of my 3D assets, despite their simplicity. Especially the blendshapes for the face - didn't get as much in-game highlighting as I had planned, but still proud of how easy they were to use in engine. 

It's been a long time since I messed about with Blender / 3D modeling in general, and animating in blender. I had also never done animation blending in Godot before, so that was a fun challenge, trying to stitch all the animations together in a way that didn't look awful. 

I made all the art, music and sound effects myself. Music and sound effects were tricky to make since I used a program I never used before so it was a bit of a learning curve there. In the game page if you scroll down you can find what I used to make all this.
