If you're participating, go ahead and introduce yourself. Tell us a little bit about you, and your experience. :)

I'll kick things off.

Hi! My name is Richard, and I am a full-time senior software engineer, and professional indie game developer. I have over 26 years of experience programming with just about every programming language out there that isn't just esoteric, though I've used a few of those too. I've built a few hundred games over the years, and have a few dozen published works on kongregate and the android market places. I'll be building my entry as a modern web game using ECMAScript 6, which you can play in any modern browser. My primary target is the Chrome browser, and if it doesn't run in others, well that's a risk I am willing to take. :D

Welcome to my game jam, I hope that you enjoy. :)

Hi! My name is Mattias Gustavsson, and I've been making games forever. I used to do it professionally (http://www.mobygames.com/developer/sheet/view/deve...,197280/) but now I'm only doing it for fun: http://mattiasgustavsson.com/

Looking forward to taking part in this, I have not decided what engine I will be using - possibly the Yarnspin story telling engine, provided it is officially released before the jam starts :)

Welcome! Looking forward to seeing what you come up with man. :)

Yo- I'm James, I'm a high schooler and have been kinda lightly dabbling in gamedev for the past two years, with the last half a year or so programming oriented.

Anything I've made has been done in Unity, that I'm very fond of, and I'll be using it again for this! (Programming in c#)

However I'm not supah sure what I'll be making yet, excited though! Thanks to Rich for making a pretty open ended and creatively allowing jam for us to have fun with :)

Welcome! I hope that you enjoy the jam! Can't wait to see what you create! :)

Hello! My name is Oskar. I'm currently going to game programming school and is in my second year. I'm from Sweden and have only participated in a local gamejam once. I'm basically always working on some sideprojects/prototypes and I'm really looking forward to this gamejam! :D

I was wondering if there will be any theme or something of the like?

Good luck to everyone!

Richard MarksHostSubmitted8 years ago

No theme is in place to allow complete creativity for this jam.

Welcome to #sixdayjam. I look forward to seeing what you create!

Hello? My name is Jacob. I currently work full time in IT support and moon light as an Indie Developer. I am looking for a way to sharpen my skills, focus on a single project, and have some fun with a game jam. I am looking forward to being able to showcase a little bit of what I can do for some people.

Good luck everyone!

Hi everyone!
My name is Konstantin, I am Front-End dev(about 1.5y), so HTML5 gamedev is my small hobby. Now i'm working on my very first game for this jam, creating art and coding. Please do not blame on me after publishing :)

I believe everyone will have fun. Good luck!

Likewise! My art is really bad, so don't judge me either, heh :)
