I hope I will discover more about Mark-the-dumbass and the story, now I want to know more. It's like playing a thriller (and also, I love narrative-driven games).

I've followed your account but I get a lot of e--mails, so feel free to write-back when/if you publish a new vorsion or ask for playtests ! I'm trying to learn solo-dev to make an income so I spend time on my computer and I think it's also a good way to learn when we're helping and supporting each other.

Your programming looked ok to me in the game and I'm impressed with your Blender skills. I don't think I could learn to do that in 4 months, so congrats !

I believe you gonna love Mark in the story :D I also followed you back, waiting to see what other projects you gonna do next! I am also improving myself as a solo dev so we really are similar in some terms. We could help each other in any way!

For the blender, it just takes practice, you know. I have now ~450~ hours on it. I learned most of my skills from Grant Abbitz, if you want to check out his youtube channel. Very great guy.

Thanks for reaching out like that again!

Bahahah we'll see about Mark :p
I'll check your projects too, thanks for the reciprocal following. Are you trying other jams in September ? I'm trying to pick one or maybe two, but I want to follow one or two tutorials about game mechanics I don't know how to code yet (I think my next goal will be to learn turn-based tactics).

Thanks for your advice on Blender ! I'm more into 2D so I think I will rather try to learn drawing and/or pixel-art (yeah I know a lot of people do that), and I also want to catch-up a bit with game-design basics.

I'd be very happy to help each other nonetheless. And if you see me in another jam ping me, I'll rate your games ! (You can also add me on Discord, I have the same username on the jam's server)

Yeah, as long as I have time I will enter other jams. https://itch.io/jam/gbjam-14 I will probably join this but I have no idea how to do a GB game, we'll see. Given that you want to to pixel art you may want to check it out! I also added you on Discord. Good luck in your journey!

I saw that, I have a bunch of messages to reply and other jam games to play but let's keep in touch !

I was thinking of 2-3 other jams in the same time-period, I'll have to make a decision. It will also depend on family stuff, I think I have step-father and step-brother at home during a week or so in September so I may choose my next jams depending on when they visit us.

The jams I'm thinking of for September/October so far are here if you want to have a look:

I need to choose only one I think, this is so hard I want to do all of them !

(We can continue the discussion on Discord if you want ^^)
