Monthly Jam

Who has ever participated in a game jam and what did they find difficult?

participated or finished?

both,

all experiences are good to share I think ^^

Well I've participated but wasn't able to finish. The difficult part was the jam for me because I was still new to game development at the time. So hopefully this jam i can change things but we don't have a theme so...

hope it works out for you this time. how long have you been dev for now?

Not long. I've really gotten back into it recently so around 2 months but I first started making games was around 2 years ago where I was just dabbling in game developement.

Ah ok I see ^^ I just discovered the concept of game jam when I've been dev for 2 years every day I'm lost xD

What do you use to make games?

Unity And You

Godot. It's the engine I've been learning recently.

Then if i understand Devaurer you are doing 2D too right ?

Yes I am. I also used to do 3d when I was using unity way back when.

I see it's cool to know multi engin

godot also can make 3d games but it isnt so good at all, unity or unreal are better on it

Godot 4.0 will completely overhaul the 3d engine once it comes out.

I would like a Theme and start me too ahah I'm losing my mind I'm going to stop waiting soon

The most difficult thing for me is the programming area, I love everything, but I'm still new to programming in my favorite game engine and sometimes something as simple as making a bot that follows you can take a lot of time for me.

Wich Engine are you using

godot

Ok then I can't help you hey I'm only on Unity me

its an excellent game engine but for 2d games i prefer to use godot

I've never tried 2D games, I started in 3D and I've always been too lazy to learn 2D! I can't wait to see what you're going to do to us ^^

The same thing happens to me as you but the other way around hahaha

ahahah

I did gmtk, made a game where you are the dice and you roll to move and your guns attack, speed, and size depends on your current roll.

then forgot to save in unity and reloaded the scene and half my work was gone :(

that was my first game jam this is my second

"forget to save" the basic error eheheh bad luck! what is gmtk? a known game jam?

GMTK is game makers toolkit im surprised you dont know

yup its from an english channel i think that make reviews of game design and more

The gmtk game jam is a game jam hosted here on itch that just ended the 16th and it lasts for two days.

toooo saaaad !

when is the next one?

It looks too good

yup, also there is another youtuber that will make a jam soon called the wowie game jam, the fun fact here is that the themes are weird like a intencional bug on the game or something like it

uff its awful, i participated too, i made a game of hordes where a dice decide how many enemies yo will fight

It looked funny your thing ^^ the theme was a dice suddenly?

the theme was roll of the dice

Ah so the one that ended recently.
