It’s pretty awesome you started so young. I’ve been playing around with programming a bit since I was around 15 or so but was never serious about it. I’m 25 now and have only been doing it for a few months steady.

#26

The competition will start at 10PM eastern time on Friday for me. I have work all night Friday, Saturday, and Sunday. Nope: no time for this competition :frowning:

#27

I wish I had the time and energy to do this sort of thing. As it is I can’t even get lwjgl16k off the ground :confused:

Cas :slight_smile:

#28

Having exams for me too ( on May 10, 17 and 22 ). Just got result for one. 888 for 1000. I’ll be trying in this competition after they are completed.

#29

I may participate, not sure at all though. Depends on whether the theme is simple enough for me to bother.

#30

And the theme is “Minimalism”!

#31

Dammit, gonna have to think…

#32

Easy theme.

#33

Theme seems simple enough to fix something in a few hours

I shall accept this challenge.

#34

Found this overly-complex description of minimalist games :stuck_out_tongue:

#35

Just thought I’d make a quick post of where I’m at for this LD.
I’m having to enter the jam as I have a friend doing arty stuff for me, and we’re progressing along quite well.

We decided interpret the theme in the setting: a submarine. Submarines are built to be quite minimalistic as they need to be compact yet functional. Basically the premise of the game is that you have to single handedly fix a sinking submarine, namely three components of: The fuel, the battery and the engine, even while they continue to break. There’s very little gameplay(you might even say… MINIMALISTIC ;D), but what you have to do is rather hard.

#36

Looks really nice! Somehow that old school graphics makes me think of the Sierra game “Codename: Iceman” (yes. I´m that old). And a simple mechanic can still make a great game. I´m looking forward to try it out!

#37

And here is my simple entry.

#38

Here is mine, it is called Tune Locks, I literally had no idea what to make, so I just made this XD, if only it was parallel worlds, had a great idea, maybe ill turn it into a game still :slight_smile:
