Hey, people! Don’t know how you came across this jam, but glad to see you here. This is a community post to discuss anything. Plans, hopes, WIPs, your dream job, anything!
This is my first jam, so forgive me for any mistakes or accidental inconsiderations!
Thank you and a heartfelt welcome. Excited to see what this jam brings us (if it does…).
Hi! Just trying to understand the theme a little better. I did some good ol' web research for a more... definitive... definition of what makes an Isekai, and it turns out some films from my past are ostensibly Isekai, including:
- the Matrix trilogy (1999 - 2003),
- Source Code (2011), and
- TRON: Legacy (2010).
Would you agree that these are Isekai? If not, do aspects of them still embody the essence of Isekai, or am I way off??
Also, is there (/will there be) a Discord channel for this jam, or shall we use this community to find teams?
Thanks!
- Sean
Hey, sorry for the late reply, but yeah. The terms of this jam are incredibly loose and @Nekpane_Interactive’s examples would be considered isekai.
The first two are like an NPC waking up and becoming a person. The last would be isekai, but not reincarnation (requires death in our world).
And yes, as @CSVidal said, isekai in fantasy worlds are also considered isekai :)
Sorry for the extremely long wait, travelling held me up and honestly, I’m just glad to have participants here (which I didn’t expect!) - Excited for the submissions!
And to answer @Living VideoGame Music Composer‘s question, no, I haven’t made a discord because the maintenance/experience that’s required for a functional one is difficult for me right now. However, a community discord is openly encouraged!
If one’s made, I’ll add it on the home page.
