I just completed my first game jam...

AND I COULDN"T BE PROUDER!  

Sure, it's not much of a GAME per say, but it is something I completed, be it a seemingly simple mechanic like having a chicken lay eggs. While the vision in my head for Contented Eggs (the name I decided to choose) was much different than what it came out to be, I learned so much in trying to make that vision come to life.  Such as...

  • Making my first 3D model in Blender (the egg)
  • Making my first set of animations for my chicken (Idle, walking, and plopping out an egg)
  • Making the chicken move and lay eggs with C#

While I certainly could have worked on it more, I find it hard to stay motivated when the vision I have for a game is a bit too much for my current skill set as a developer. I'm still working on being patient with myself and learning one step at a time and I'm really glad I joined this game jam because it gave me a timeframe to get something done. 

Thanks to whoever set this thing up and gave me an excuse to learn something new!
