  1. 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!

  2. 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 globalgamejam.org/group/31077/

  3. During GJJ, I made a game about masks and Carnival with Studio H501. It's available on itch, feel free to let me know your thoughts!

  4. I did 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.

  5. 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: thomas3913.itch.io/dark-decisi

  6. 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 égarées

    J'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 ?

  7. 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)

  8. 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.

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