This is also my/our first Game Jam. (Arthurs and mine)
We didn't have that much game making knowledge. I've programmed small games in game maker for a year now, but never finished them and arthur did'nt make games before either. Therefore we wanted to create a game, which should be as simpleand short as possible. On friday we came up with the core idea of a quiz game, where you get insulted by a bird for answering incorrectly. On the same day, I programmed the Textbox and buttons and Arthur got started with the soundtrack. The next day, we thought of questions and a storyline for the game. I drew the Sprites and Arthur made some sounds for the bird talking. On the last day, things were getting tricky. We still needed more questions and insults and we wanted to implement different endings. Because of the lack of time, we scrapped some of the questions and didn't fix all the bugs (because our game did'nt have that much to do with bugs at the time). If a bug didn't make the game crash, it was fine. In the end we finished the game released it. We're pretty happy, how it turned out.
This Gamejam was really fun and I'm sure, we'll participate in other ones too.
Thanks to Jonas, for making this possible and thanks to everyone else for participating!
