Figure I should do an introduction for myself as well
1. Hi there! What's your name? Want to introduce yourself?
No i dont xD - Im kidding, but I go by the name of shad over on the discord group too and I'm an inspiring game designer specializing in character backstory + worldbuilding as that is what I love most in games. However, I'm also trying to learn programming as well during my free time.
2. Did you participate in the last jam we held? If so, what do you plan on doing better this time? If not, what's your reason for joining?
No , I did not. This would also be my first game jam that I'll be entering. My reason for joining is to established connections with people around the world, and trading knowledge with one another as I'm only a fresh graduate so its a chance for me to learn from the established peeps.
3. What games are your favorites? Did any of them inspire you, or made you want to make your own?
Definitely the Kiseki series (The legend of heroes - Trails in the sky especially) with its wonderful character building + World building enchanted me with one of the best characters and world that I have the joy experiencing. I believe those that saw me in discord would know how much I love the series too xD, as I've been raving about them since I joined the jam. Other than that, games like corpse party, doki doki literature club, persona, final fantasy and many others. My favorite genre comes from the JRPG genre and I do love me some horror fun fare which is where I'm mostly inspired by when designing my own games.
4. Do you have experience with game development? What did you do/with what engine?
I have some experience with Unity and Unreal engine to the extend that I'm able to use them to graduate from university. I'm not a pro by any means, but im open to learn :)
5. Tell us about something you're passionate about!
Oh boy, of course it would be game development.
Other than that, video games, football (soccer for the americans) , both my cat and dog. Other than that not much, I live a pretty boring life.
6. What are your goals for this game jam?
Make new friends, grow to know them better and then finish the game that we would be starting at the start of the jam
7. Any advice to new jammers (if you're a veteran)?
I'm new
8. If you're a returning jammer, what can the admins do to improve your jam experience?
I'm new
