1. Hi there! What's your name? Want to introduce yourself?
Hello world! My name is Melissa and I'm a 24 year old service rep from the planet Earth. Surprising fact about me: I love video games. (shocking I know)
2. Did you participate in the last jam we held? If so, what do you plan on doing better this time? If not, what's your reason for joining?
This is my first jam! While I didn't participate in the last jam I did watch it unfold, like a pining lover watches their crush. After much self debate I decided to try it! I've always wanted to try making a game and this seemed like a good place to start!
3. What games are your favorites? Did any of them inspire you, or made you want to make your own?
Platformers, RPGs, and Visual Novels are my favorites. While I don't play it as much as other genres, I also have a weakness for a good Horror game.
4. Do you have experience with game development? What did you do/with what engine?
I've dabbled a bit with the basics of Unity, but that's about it. Frankly: I'm a noob.
5. Tell us about something you're passionate about!
Other than video games, I love to write and draw. I love to build worlds and fill them with characters.
6. What are your goals for this game jam?
To dip a toe in the waters of creative challenge. I'm not expecting to make a masterpiece, or even a fully developed game. But I want to try to follow my passion. Baby steps. I'm hoping to finish a basic prototype.
7. Any advice to new jammers (if you're a veteran)?
I'm not a veteran but I have heard several veterans say to make something that you would want to play.
