  1. Hello!
    Welcome in! Have a seat, get comfortable, and prepare yourself to take a trip back in time.

    I would like to take you a time before the internet, before 3d graphics, before even the likes of Nintendo or Sega. A time when your options for virtual entertainment were limited to the few systems that connected to your television set (the Atari VCS (later renamed the 2600) and the Intellivison), a home computer (such as the Apple ii, Commodore PET / 64, or the Radio Shack TRS-80), or your local arcade, where you'd have to feed coins into machines by the fist-full.

    That's right, the goal if this jam is to find a game from before the video game crash of 1983 and Nintendo's revitalizing of the market and recreate it today in your own way. Digging something out of the far reaches of obscurity and bringing it back to life today.

  4. I've extended the #FuckICE #gamejam that I keep getting too busy and forgetting to post about to end on #NoKings , only been a handful of entries before but I got more than a few messages of people wanting to join but not being able to for a few weeks, so now's the chance! Show me your best laser loons and other great ice crushing action, and don't forget to promote a good cause from the list linked!

  5. Wanna make relaxing art about gay monster gals?

    Beginning next month I'm hosting a low-stress jam about exactly that!

    Join us if y'all've been just dying to make that comic/game/poem/track about Carmilla and Medusa hanging out on their day off〜!

  6. Recently released Quake Brutalist Jam III has 77 new maps plus new monsters, weapons and more -- it's designed to be played with Ironwail, a fork of GLQuake descendant QuakeSpasm (it also has native Linux support).

    You'll need Quake from Steam (store.steampowered.com/app/231) or GOG (gog.com/en/game/quake_the_offe) to play these maps, and this Slipseer post (slipseer.com/index.php?resourc) tells you how to download/install everything.

    If you are making a #roguelike twist on a classic in #defold - submit it to both #gamejams! 🥳

  9. Seeking information on game jams! Do folks ever join these things primarily as music/sfx contributors? Are there jams out there I should investigate if I wanna do this? I could hypothetically contribute as a developer, but it sounds more fun to participate with sound. 😅 #gamedev #gamejams #indiegame

  22. Gimme your #indiegame recommendations! I want to play more games by #indiegamedevs to make videos and possibly feature on my #YouTube channel!

    Just some criteria first before you start listing games to me.

    1) Must be an indie game less than four months old
    2) Preferably if it has less than 500 reviews on Steam
    3) Would also love demos to be suggested (or Game Jams!)
    4) Can be on Itch or some other non-Steam website
