Hey, just figured I'd start a thread for people who want to post updates or screenshots of their projects as the jam progresses. This is gonna be a fun and nostalgic week!! Good luck everybody!
And I'll go ahead and start with the first day's work on our team's project- actually a DEmake of our first game (made all the way back in high school). kinda funny to be doing a remake that's actually lower resolution and fewer colours, but it's added fun to work with some extra limitations, and (hopefully) it'll be a more solid gameplay experience!
Here's what the original game looked like:
And here's the early version of how the remake's gonna look (Zelda HUD is placeholder :P) and a few iterations of the player sprite:
Looking forward to seeing what everyone else creates!
Hey cool idea on the updates posts! I'm gonna remake a really crappy game, S.Q.U.A.R.E. It's the first game that I uploaded on itch.io.

The original game had copyrighted music and art and a ton of bugs. Luckily I still made an update that fixed most of them. Still, that game was made in GameMaker Lite 8.1, whereas now I'm working on GameMaker Studio 2.
The levels were one-screen, boring, and repetitive. Also, there wasn't much content. My new game is gonna fix that.
Behold, S.Q.U.A.R.E. REBIRTH!!!
This game will be a lot different. A minimalist and modern artstyle, actually cool graphics, great and fast-paced gameplay, more meaningful levels, and, most importantly, no bugs. (Well, at least not so many...)
I've already started working on this game a long time ago, but now is the time it will be reborn.
I'm currently at level-making.
