1. Hi there! What's your name? Want to introduce yourself?
Jason Terry
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 will be my first Game Jam, and I am really hoping to meet people and help others accomplish something.
3. What games are your favorites? Did any of them inspire you, or made you want to make your own?
Ogre Battle 64, Battle Hunter (From PSX), Legend Of Heros: Trials Of Cold Steel, Melty Blood, Grandia III.
These are some of the games that make me want to make games. They really really inspire me. Ogre Battle was the first game that made me really think about it's design and systems as a young kid and want to build something similar.
4. Do you have experience with game development? What did you do/with what engine?
On and off for around 15 years I have been dabbling in different game engines / designing board games. I have about 5 years of Software Engineering experience ( that's what I do for my day job. ) but it is a recent goal to really commit and making game dev something more than an idle hobby.
5. Tell us about something you're passionate about!
Really passionate about helping others learn, clean code.
6. What are your goals for this game jam?
Soak up some knowledge, lend a hand when able, and learn more about participating in Jams.
