I wish I could participate but this month I already made 1 short game (not as short as you require) in 15 days and I have plans for the rest of the month. But making 10 games in 10 days that last 10 minutes each sounds like a nice challenge that I want to try!
Will something like this be repeated sometime?
I try to do a Variety Megajam every December - the common element is "10 games in 10 days", but the (loose) "10 minutes" requirement was for this year only. Last year it was "playables," and who knows what I'll be into next year :)
Thanks for your interest and participation! I'll be sure to check out your game, and I'm glad you managed to finish & submit something. Looking forward to it.
Sadly I think the game I made, I can't send it because:
- It was made in 15 days
- It doesn't have a duration of 10 minutes
But I think that even if I don't participate this time, I will take your idea and I will definitely do it in an upcoming month :) I was already thinking in making short games just to have more variety in my portfolio and for the fun, so this challenge, let's say, encouraged me!
Hello! Yes, I think Spacescapes is only for windows. Alright, I will just mention at least the games that "could" enter in this challenge if I would have done them this month hahaha, so at least you can see, but don't take them as games to participate in this challenge for real.
The game I have made this month that I'm talking about is Hogwarts RPG, I just wanted to try to make a small-normal sized game that can last for a few hours in 2 weeks, and I did it successfully.
About short games, I have a few.
Spacescapes is one indeed, because this game was created mostly because the music, it's basically an ambient experience.
There is also The Lays of Alentë Unity Maps, but I think this one took a bit longer because I had to populate the terrain and I was very noob at this time. Still, this is very short.
Horroria is also a very short game but not sure if it could be applied to this challenge since the duration is not 10 minutes (although you can finish in 10 minutes I think, if you die hahahha)
And finally, the 2 that I think that meet more these requeriments are 2 minigames in Cosmorama. The big Cosmorama game was done much later, but if you enter that game and you scroll down, you will see that there are 2 small games additional to the big game. There is one that was done in 5 hours (challenge was to do it in 15 hours so I guess I did it very well lol) and it has a duration of around 5 minutes. The other is a simple 2D platformer that was also done very fast and the duration depends on your skills, but if you are good, you can also finish it very quick.
I was thinking in your challenge and I'm following you, and definitely, next year sometime I want to try to do 10 games in 10 days of 10m duration. I will plan them in advance, though hahahaha ideas, mechanics, story, whatever... I'll plan all before starting the challenge :D And if you do things like these every december, I will keep an eye on that. I love this kind of challenges, it motivates me to continue doing games (this month I developed a game after 1 year of non developing anything and I really missed it) and also it's a great way to increase the number of games in portfolio.
Sorry for long text but I got excited hahaha, thank you!
