I just love to see how much I improved, and Jams are a good way to do that. Why MVM in particular? because it is a month long, and it gives me enough time to not only see what I know, but to learn new things.
My goal for -THIS- MVM is to NOT use pixel art. I am going to try to use hand drawn animations (probably no color, just black and white) for all of the art/characters/etc. everything. I have no idea how good it will be, but that is my goal. So the scope of the game will probably be small, with a lot of art packed in
