A SNES era action RPG! At least that's what I'm aiming to make. Who knows what'll actually happen!
What are you intending to make?
The competition rules say they're light on thematic rigor, so if you have an idea that you're already inspired by, I'm sure you can fit it around the theme ^__^ For this kind of jam too, the premise of the jam is already such a huge part of the theme that it's not a stretch to imagine whatever you're thinking of now will find a home there.
The important part is to get your engines revved up and ready to go!
If you are looking to build a team I'd suggest posting in the facebook event: https://www.facebook.com/events/1747902232145017/

Best of luck!
Now the theme has been announced what is everyone making?
I'm working on a 2D space shooter with waves of enemies but going to be exploring the 2 player 1 controller constraint with this game. Hoping this can be a project I can push myself at for adding extra interesting features that I've not done yet for a game!
