1. Hi there! What's your name? Want to introduce yourself?
Hello! I'm ribambelle, I am a translator, and I'm pretty nervous about this whole thing. But also looking forward to it!
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?
Nope, first timer here! I found out about this through the GirlGamers subreddit and the more I clicked through those beautiful lists of engines, resources and tutorials, the more I wanted to participate.
3. What games are your favorites? Did any of them inspire you, or made you want to make your own?
I've been playing Stardew Valley since Christmas, so there's that. Otherwise I really enjoyed the worlds of Bioshock or Dishonored, and hugely enjoy story driven games like the Walking Dead series, Firewatch, Dr. Langeskov and that super huge long title, Oxenfree, Her Story. I like to take my time playing a game, that's why I like turn based strategy stuff, especially The Banner Saga and the new Shadownrun games. And Wesnoth will always have a special place in my heart. <3
4. Do you have experience with game development? What did you do/with what engine?
Nope, no experience! I've played around with the Shadowrun Editor, but never finished anything. I will try to work with the free RPG Maker Version, because it seems to be the easiest to start with, having no experience whatsoever.
5. Tell us about something you're passionate about!
Hmm.. worldbuilding would be pretty high up. And good stories and dialogues (comes with the job I guess, I was a literature and film student.)
6. Any advice to new jammers (if you're a veteran)?
