Yup, I definitely felt that in my game dev classes! Even where every student was being graded on their participation, there were still a number of students who never even managed to submit anything by the end, and where some few other students ended up building almost everything. It's a lot easier to click "Join this Jam" than to actually follow along and make something!

For sure! I have some friends who regularly make their own games. The difference with less people is just that we're limited to how much we can accomplish in a limited time frame, whether that means cutting back on graphics, features, stability, or something else depending on the skillsets available.

Honestly it sounds like most people responding have 2D skills xD that's my preference as well, idk if that's ok under the jam rules or not. In any case, I'm sure you could do design work for either type of game in procreate

Hi Rin, I just got out of the hospital myself, I hope you are doing well. I take it you want to contribute art? If you're up to it, try concepting the level. Take a look at one finger death punch and add realistic feudal japan elements.
