Sorry - it’s all a bit embryonic at the moment - not sure if I’ll have time
it’s the XKCD Game jam
just need to learn enough about creator to be able to hit the ground running on Saturday (I teach kids coding on Saturday morning so only have 1 1/2 days - and my current game idea will take all of that!!)
I did a game jam about 2 years ago. Started on Saturday early morning all the way through Sunday night. It was super fun. I was there to help developers using Cocos2d-x succeed with using it for their entry. Sleep is not needed. The only thing that matters is code, code, code, peel eyes open, code…
The decision I have to make is whether to abstain from alcohol for the entire weekend, or to just go for it, and grab a couple of bottles of wine to ‘feed the imagination’
Closest I’ve ever come to a game jam before was a Microsoft Azure ‘Jam’ - which somehow just doesn’t sound as much fun, does it?
I really want to do this because I have a great idea for a small game, and figure this is the sort of thing that will make me actually sit down and do it - and it’s a good excuse to finally learn to use Cocos Creator!
