1. Hi there! What's your name? Want to introduce yourself?
Hello. I'm NK. I have a background in art and design, but I'm inexperienced with programming.
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?
I did not. This is my first game jam ever.
3. What games are your favorites? Did any of them inspire you, or made you want to make your own?
My all time favorite game is Killer 7. In addition to the works of Suda51, I'm really inspired by Hideki Kamiya, Shinji Mikami, and Hideo Kojima. More recently, I've become a big fan of Sean Velasco after playing Shovel Knight.
4. Do you have experience with game development? What did you do/with what engine?
I've done a couple of the built in tutorials for Game Maker. In terms of asset creation, I've done some sprites and animations for a roommate's project. I occasionally found errors in some of his GML code, if that counts. Aside from that, not a lot.
5. Tell us about something you're passionate about!
Apart from video games, I enjoy table top war games (Warmachine, specifically) and Magic the Gathering.
6. What are your goals for this game jam?
Honestly, just to finish something that runs, hopefully with a title screen, gameplay that won't crash.
