it is my fourth game jam. I always had a brainstorming session with my team at the start of the game jam. I usually use tools like Whimsical or Miro to do the brainstorming. Our team members are in different parts of the world in this jam, so we work in a different time zone. It added a challenge, but fortunately, we managed it.
The theme was unique, so we came up with a chill game rather than an action game as we knew there would be many teams doing action games and using a door as some sort of portal. we are heavily inspired by Wes Anderson and Stranger Things for the art of this game. The game turned out to be great, but we didn't manage to implement all the features we wanted. We managed to keep the team spirit at 100% for the entire jam! I don't get enough sleep during the jam hahah, but it's all worth it.
It would be great if you could leave a review for our game here: https://itch.io/jam/brackeys-11/rate/2531378
