itch.io

Time to get the chat going!
Let's keep all communications on itch.io since folk are from different forums, socials, and discord groups - so it would be best to have everyone on the same boat rather than updating everyone on different platforms.

Feel free to make teams, have a lovely chat, and share some videos or pics of older projects.

8 days to go, 8 days to set things up and chill. <3

More details will be given later this weekend ^-^

Thanks!  Unfortunately I have zero idea how to make a Linux port with the engine haha

The second one will be a mission to make public. Lots of cringe and copyrighted music.   It was made as a Bday gift for a friend :))
However, you can watch his playthrough: 

Mind sharing the youtube link? It's fun watching other people play :)

Thanks yo!

Hi yall, I've gained a bunch of downloads today out of the blue. Would be nice to hear where folk heard of my game. Leave a comment or reply please!

Only way to get more meta is if Meta acquires this game hehehe.

Thanks for playing!

The engine I use has a really buggy physics engine; clipping will happen if the CPU is a bit slow. As for the speech bubble, I'm not gonna say anything :))

Glad you enjoyed it! I'd say it's a mix of Beginners Guide, the Insomniac museums in Ratchet and Clank, and then off course the developer commentary in Half Life

yeah, I wish I could add that, but I cant code to save my life hehe. I just went with the default settings.

Glad you liked it!!  

I really wanted to implement subtitles, but I can't code hahaha.  Making any Ui with this engine is a nightmare.

Glad you enjoyed it!  This is my first time writing an actual script and planning stuff.  My main goal was to have fun and confuse people on what engine im using haha

The end had a few rewrites. Super hard to wrap it up in a short note hehe. Glad you enjoyed the story a bit.   I'd like to imagine Dan had a burnout and is chilling in a cabin somewhere:))

Thank you!! :)

Tanks!

Was thinking about it.   Might start scripting today

Glad you enjoyed it! :))

Life is Squeak by Oby1

I started getting tired of the cozy-game shovelware trend recently, and the latest LIS entries are extremely repetitive and heavy-handed. So, why not make a parody game :)   It's really hard not to spoil, but I'll say one thing. It's in the title.

A game for both the fans and critics of the original LIS!

Embark on the adventure of a lifetime as you navigate a peaceful autumn day. Make dialogue choices that might—or might not—matter, go fishing, bike through scenic trails, and wreak a little havoc on the local wildlife. The choice is yours!

Hyped to see your reaction! :))

Thanks mah dude!!

HAHAHAHA!!! Thanks yo!

this is odd, The engine we used is a bit jank-  maybe updating graphics dirvers.

Hi yall! Thank you soo much for joining my game jam. First time I've hosted one, and I'm glad it went smoothly :) <3

A few friends and I will be making a let's play video of all your games. It will be uploaded next week on YouTube. So keep an eye out for that!

I'll post a link over on discord and the community page of Itch io.

all good yo! Goodluck with the Bday game! <3

Hi there! it seems to be on the submissions page. Reload the jam page and hop over to submissions to double-check.   I can ask a team member to upload it on your behalf if you're still having issues.

Add these few things to your description:
1- credit the artists if you've used pre-made assets
2 - How to play, the Goal, and the controls

and that's it!

Hyyypppeee!   Will play it next week with friends ^-^

yess.  If you can switch them on and off and feature a light switch:)

Nope!, kinda, it just needs to feature a functional light switch, so you can make whatevs,   just have that asset in the game

it's always fun to see everyone's silly glitches and progress on Gamedev.

I mean... it's a tool. But you can't copyright ai art. But ye. I'll say it's allowed 

Hi there, noprobs, I'll make a plan!

Welcome to the jam yo!   

it's all good. You can share a link to it over on discord.   as long as it's accessible to play and free. :)

For this game jam, you are more than welcome to use pre-made assets, as long as they are free and public.
If the asset does not have the CC0 license, you absolutely have to give credit. 

Attach a .txt file called "CREDITS" in your game zip folder, and add the credits in your description of your submitted game.

Assets:
https://poly.pizza/
https://sketchfab.com/feed
https://www.blendswap.com/
https://quaternius.com/
https://polyhaven.com/

For music, Use the Youtube Audio library in Youtube Studio. In case someone makes a let's play, they can have the option to monetize their video

Please note, If you are using UPBGE/The blender game engine, there's a high chance people can extract the files and steal assets.
Look into the Range engine ( https://rangeengine.tech/ ) to publish your game. - it encrypts your game files.
If you don't want to do it and risk your biscuit, go for it!

all you need to do is feature a functional light switch in your game.... and that's it!

Jam starts this Monday, so start daydreaming <3

nooo.   Join the discord and have a chat with strangers ^-^

The theme will be announced on Sunday ^-^  - It's going to be really dumb and open-ended for interpretation. 

Rules for publishing and ownership:

*The game must be 100% free - and you have the option to make it donation-based. You can discuss royalties with your team. 
*Everyone has full ownership on the assets or any other media they produce- you have the right to sell assets.
*Pre-made assets are allowed, as long as its free and public- and as long as there is proper credit given either in-game or in the description.
*The game must run either browser-based or on Windows. (I don't have a Mac, and Linux is eww)
*Encrypt and spoof your executables! If you're using UPBGE/BGE- publish your game with RANGE engine. Last thing you want is people stealing assets.

Have fun!

Feel free to ask questions ^-^
