Since we don’t have a jam-specific space on the Discord (edit: we do now, hooray!), I thought it’d be fun to keep a record of my futile efforts here instead. There’s a real chance this game won’t be finished on time, but succeed or fail I’ll admit it here :D
So, when the theme was announced I was thoroughly confused because I’m not from the US. But if I’ve never heard of the kids’ game, I have heard of both ducks and geese and birds in general. And I recently played someone else’s very fun jam entry that involved watching through a security camera so….yoink! Watching birds (cubes) through binoculars it is.
For some reason I’ve gone 3d with this game, which…I can kind of do 3d but am completely lost when it comes to rigging and animations and this is the biggest risk to not finishing. But it’s something I need to get better at for my actual main game project, so what better place to practise than a jam.
There have admittedly been some issues.
And don’t even get me started on trying to rig a duck.
But maybe, just maybe, we’ll get there in the end. Watch this space!
