Hello everyone! The idea of a game jam got thrown out in one of the threads in the godot community and I wanted to throw out the question here to gauge how many people would be interested in having one run!
If so, some things that would need to be determined are when to run it and for how long should it running for. In addition there was the idea of having it be about making tutorial projects to show off what game engines can do and how to do things in them (referring to Godot but can be generalized to all of them). Or we can instead just run a standard game jam and possibly have that as an optional diversifier if people want
For those who don’t know what a game jam is its an event where you make a game in a small period of time (2 days, 3 days, 2 weeks, etc. depending on the jam)
Feel free to comment below to give some input on how the jam should be run if you’re interested or upvote to show interest in the idea! If enough people are ill set up a jam page
The spirit is willing but the flesh is
spongy and bruisedtoo old and beset by adult responsibilities to do a typical short jam. Maybe if you end up deciding to make it a longer more casual one, though!(Also my Godot knowledge is in no state to be making any form of tutorial anything yet)
I’d like to participate, but I don’t know anything about Godot.
Thats fine! Any engine is usable in the jam and people starting out or learning is always welcome
