Well talk about first, this is my first of many things!

- My first project ever with unity ( i'm just learned coding for about 3 month, yay java)

- My first time try to make a game ( thinking about what we can do, should do, then try to executed it it's a frustration, fatigue but nice experience)

- My first time post a thing that a make by myself to public(shy and expectant)

- My first jam (push myself some goal, a community where i can see some ideal i never seen before, thing that i see i can take some to improve my next project, and most important is feedback, i know what i good at, what still bad that need to be fix)

Sorry if my english is so bad, let's talk about your experience!!!

Hello!
This wasn't my first jam but I remember my first jam was so bad.. 
Uploaded a buggy one.. 
All in all, its was a good experience, definitely helps me improving my gamedev!
Anyway, congrats on your first jam! good luck to you in the future :) 

I started my gamedev journey with coding in java, then watched a video by dani a unity developer. I felt really inspired and started learning unity I have learnt unity for about 1 year and I created a game named The Archers Exploit, I have atempted game jam before but never created a game. I am really proud of the game even if it wasn't that good, hope you feel proud of yours too.

I learnt HTML5 and CSS, then I learnt C# and Java for developing games in Unity. I have been doing this for a couple of months by following Brackey's Tutorials (of course), when I saw the notification on YouTube about Brackey's Game Jam, I hurriedly made an account for itch.io so I could join. I waited everyday for it to start. Once it had started my school had given me lots of assignments causing me to prioritise this less. When I saw I had ten hours left, I opened Unity as fast as I could and made my game in 9 hours straight and submitted. Very cool experience though. Doing more things like this in the future.

First time jammer here. I'm not worried I know I can't get any good placements. I did it cause I wanted to try it + it was a great challenge.

i just made games followed by tutorials this gamejam was also my first own game and not a tutorial one! I put use to everything i learned so far from those tutorials but ofc had to limit down due to short time! It may not be good but am proud of it! Oh and i checked out ur game u did pretty awesome for ur first jam game!

For us it was our first game released and our first game jam. It was also the first time that we worked as a team. Frankly I am rather satisfied with our game (I did not expect such a good result). It took us a long time but I think it was worth it (no major bugs!)!

Hi, it is my second jam but I documented postmortem and lessons learned from my first one done this January (Blackthornprod 2021) here:

I also done the same for this jam - here is a postmortem for my 2nd game jam: https://itch.io/jam/brackeys-5/topic/1231056/yin-and-yang-in-search-of-harmony-l...

Hope it will help you in your gamedev journey!
