Making a game for #GGJ? Focus on "Juicy" mechanics over complex systems.
Concept: Bubble maze
The Player: A bubble.
The Plan: Use floaty, physics-based wind forces (WASD/Mouse)
The Logic: High bounciness + a dramatic particle effect "Pop!" on collision.
Fri: Create physics-based wind movement (WASD/Mouse).
Sat: Add hazards and "Pop" logic with big particle effects.
Sun: Finally polish bounciness and shaders.
The Goal: High juice, low complexity. Make every collision feel dramatic!
Read more: coming soon

The Global Game Jam is an event where participants create their own games based on a theme that the GGJ Organization chooses. Participants have one week to work on their game and submit it. in 2026, Hackforgers submitted a record breaking 12 games!
Here are the awesome and super cool games all the participants at Hackforge made for the 2026 Mask theme https://globalgamejam.org/group/31077/games

I did #globalgamejam this weekend, and one of my teammates used Procreate. He shared palette swatches which I could not open in @GIMP ...
...I took that as a personal challenge. :)
Afterwards I reviewed the files (zipped JSON) and few others I found online, and submitted a merge request to add initial support.

Videogame aficionados! 🕹️ I took part in my first ever game jam last weekend, alongside @AzureDusk10 and 60(!?) other people in #Edinburgh! It was quite a wild ride!
Had the pleasure to team up with andrewmc.me to make this:

I participated in the #globalgamejam with the theme "Mask". I found a great team that wanted to create a #horror game. I did the mask #pixelart and like how it turned out. 😊
It's also available on itch if you want to check it out: https://thomas3913.itch.io/dark-decisions

J'ai survécu à ma première game jam ce week-end !
Avec une excellente équipe de neuf (1 game designer, 3 dev, 4 artistes et 1 sound designer) on a créé en 48h le jeu ALMANIMASHI, un puzzle game où on doit récupérer des âmes égaréesJ'ai fait la DA d'un des 4 univers du jeu (celui en noir et blanc) et les pages d'accueil, crédits etc, je vous mettrai le lien quand les jeux de la jam seront en ligne
C'était gé-nial, on remet ça l'année prochaine ?

Trop cool de faire des soundtracks tout le weekend pour la #globalgamejam !
Si vous voulez des sons pour du JV indé n’hésitez pas (᠐ܫ᠐) -
We finished Trash Bandits! It’s playable and even kinda fun. I’ll post a web playable link tomorrow after I write up some instructions for it.
A lot of the Minneapolis folks made games that were clearly about the current occupation. Our team had discussed it briefly, but ultimately went with something a bit easier to squeeze into 8 bits.
Photo attached is our team minus the 4th member that worked from home the final day.

Here's the #VR experience I made for #GlobalGameJam! Trigger warning: political/intense + my way of processing the 😠stuff that has been happening recently.

Got a nice little game together for Global Game Jam 2026 - the first time in a while I've taken part. I'm still adding little bits and pieces, but it was basically finished three hours into the event.

CW: intense screams/whistles, cartoon brutality reflecting recent news
WIP so far on my #GlobalGameJam. It's a #VR experience where masked govt thug pigs have come to your neighborhood, harassing your neighbors. All you have is a smartphone w/ 2% battery left. Capture whatever you can to challenge the "official" narrative (lies).

I finally starting jamming on my game for Global Game Jam after many hours of doomscrolling and trying to keep up with all that is happening.
Drew up some quick characters in OpenBrush. Masked pig thugs, and your neighbors.

today's progress! I'm doing UI programming for a VN project and adapting one of Skolatzika's Ren'Py GUI templates~ Our artist/writer is a machine and already wrote over 6k words (on top of doing art 😱 )

I made my first #Doom #Mod back in 2018 for the #GlobalGameJam with some friends. We finally got around to polishing it up for a final release.
It's called Imps 'R Us. I'm happy with how it came out. It's a short, comedic #WAD so check it out if you like that sort of thing!

Today we had an on-location playtest of our #GlobalGameJam submission at #Hackforge.

Just one more and then I swear I am done for tonight. 🙏 I found this other Global Game Jam game we did. "Two Wolves Inside You or Something". It was designed to be a dexterity challenge, where you control both wolves one with each hand, while lava rises. You gotta get them to meet and howl together.
You can play it here: https://cratesmith.itch.io/two-wolves-inside-you-or-something
