1. Hi there! What's your name? Want to introduce yourself?
My name is Laurence! I'm an aspiring comic artist and gamedev, and am currently pursuing a compsci degree.
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?
I have some free time for the first week of the jam as I am on vacation, and the second half I will only be working, no classes. I want to try to take the time to actually create something instead of dabbling and getting distracted quickly.
3. What games are your favorites? Did any of them inspire you, or made you want to make your own?
I really like Final Fantasy, Fire Emblem, Zero Escape, and Touhou. I'm especially inspired by Zero Escape and would love to make a point and click + visual novel game in the future because of it.
4. Do you have experience with game development? What did you do/with what engine?
Very little. I have decent experience with coding and have played with RPGMaker and a bit with Godot, although I didn't make much progress with either.
5. Tell us about something you're passionate about!
Boys. I really enjoy art and character design, and also fiber arts (all I can do right now though is crochet and knit...)!
6. What are your goals for this game jam?
I mostly just want to sit down and focus on something and make actual progress. Beyond that, making even half of a first SHMUP stage would be pretty cool.
