1. Hi there! What's your name? Want to introduce yourself? 
Halloo! My name is Laurie

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 did not participate! Because I'm very new to game development, I like the idea of game jams giving me a time limit to finish the project I'm working on. I'm great at coming up with ideas and getting a third to halfway through a project then wandering off. Sigh...

3. What games are your favorites? Did any of them inspire you, or made you want to make your own?
Story-based games will always be my anthem. Any platform or medium as long as it's got a story that grabs me I'm into it! I love games that tie mechanics into narrative --like Portal or Inscryption where the story wouldn't exist without the game mechanic and vice versa

4. Do you have experience with game development? What did you do/with what engine? 
I am VERY much a baby dev--I've played with Twine and GB Studio and that's it! (I also wrote a D&D module and a Monster of the Week one-shot, not sure if that counts) I made a Twine game to go along with the Monster game and made a GB Studio game for the Secret Santa game jam last holiday season

5. Tell us about something you're passionate about! 
Coffee. I could drink gallons of the stuff--oh, wait. I do

6. What are your goals for this game jam?
I want to grow my overall skills as a developer; get a better sense of pacing in my dev cycle; finish the dang thing!; have people play my game and think it's cool

1. Hi there! What's your name? Want to introduce yourself? 

Hi! My name is CharlieMcGruff!

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? 

Nope, this is my very first jam... I'm joining to try and up my skills (Gamedev and Artwork), and it is also something my girlfriend and I are doing together (We love thinking up silly game ideas)

3. What games are your favorites? Did any of them inspire you, or made you want to make your own? 

This is a very broad question! I would be hard-pressed to pick a favorite, but I love everything from Uncharted to Red Dead, Salt and Sanctuary to Super Meat Boy, AAA's and Indies (Even though I am actively trying to play more indies lately).

4. Do you have experience with game development? What did you do/with what engine? 

I have very little experience. I started learning Construct a month or so ago, and I am trying to practice and learn everyday.

5. Tell us about something you're passionate about! 

Video games of course! And I am also a passionate hiker and love the outdoors, exploring new things and just life in general!

6. What are your goals for this game jam?

Honestly, just to finish something. Ever since started learning Construct I have so many projects I am actively working on, but I have not finished anything. I want to use this opportunity to make something small and focused and actually finish it!

1. Hi there! What's your name? Want to introduce yourself? 

Hello, my name's Renphis! (not legal)

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've always been mildly interested  in game development but have been a bit afraid, hopefully this little excursion will help dispel some of those fears.

3. What games are your favorites? Did any of them inspire you, or made you want to make your own? 

I enjoy a wide variety of games, but im particularly fond of sprawling  3D rpgs (Elders Scrolls, Mass Effect, Divinity, Dragon Age, Fallout, etc.), I also really enjoy rogue likes/lites (Binding of Isaac, Hades, Risk of Rain), Visual Novels/Dating Sims, MMOs, randomly i'll go out of my comfort zone and play an FPS or something. I have a long list of games and genres I appreciate!

4. Do you have experience with game development? What did you do/with what engine? 

Next to nothing, I've dabbled in the past a bit with RPG Maker VX Ace and half-heartedly tried to learn pygame.

5. Tell us about something you're passionate about!

I'm really into making good art and making/looking at beautiful things!

6. What are your goals for this game jam?

To finish something (even if i think it's subpar) and engage with the community a lil.

1. Hi there! What's your name? 

My name is Chelsea its nice to meet you!

2. Did you participate in the last jam we held?

This is my first ever game jam!

3. What games are your favorites? 

I love Sonic the Hedgehog and Fire Emblem. I'm also quite possibly addicted to 2048.  Also a big LoZ: Age of Calamity fan

4. Do you have experience with game development? What did you do/with what engine? 

I've never developed a game before but I just finished a course on game production where I learned how to work with a team of devs to create a mobile game!

5. Tell us about something you're passionate about! 

I love singing and playing my violin. I really enjoy music and reading books.

6. What are your goals for this game jam?

I am not a game developer (read: not a coder or an animator LOL), but I am interested in game production and would love to join a team to help facilitate the game production process and help a team achieve its goals! :D  On the side, I am also a musician, composer, professional writer and artist, so I can help out with those things

1. Hi there! What's your name? Want to introduce yourself?

Hey all! I'm Trystan. In my day job I write about and teach philosophy, with a focus on the ethics of computing technologies.

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?

Nope! I'm new to video game development. I'm keen to learn more, especially as I'm thinking about new teaching methods—I would love to teach an intro-level course that explores basic computer programming and the social contexts of computing through game development.

3. What games are your favorites? Did any of them inspire you, or made you want to make your own? 

I mostly play tabletop RPGs—I started with D&D in 2000 but my current favourites are Fate Condensed and Fellowship. As far as video games go, I love the Legend of Zelda series and Stardew Valley. The fantasy adventure genre inspires me to create  ✨🧙‍♀️ 

4. Do you have experience with game development? What did you do/with what engine? 

I've made a few small tabletop RPGs, but this will be my first video game design.

5. Tell us about something you're passionate about! 

I love game design, writing, and teaching!

6. What are your goals for this game jam?

My goal is to finish a minimum viable product of a dungeon crawl game, loosely modelled after the "Basic/Expert" edition of D&D from 1981. I'm using GB Studio as my engine because I like the constraints of the Game Boy and the programming required is pretty minimal.

1. my name is jaymac01 and this is my first game and game jam.

3. too many favorites. but one game that inspired me was UNDERTALE.

4. no experience. but i'll probably use unity.

5. i am passionate about playing games.

6. my goal? make something that works. 

1. Hi there! What's your name? Want to introduce yourself? 

Saito. Learning Unity as a hobby since work full 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, just heard about it

3. What games are your favorites? Did any of them inspire you, or made you want to make your own? 

Recently been into roguelike/lites, simple games that are repayable and you improve at over time. Games like FTL or Slay The Spire are good examples of differing genres within roguelike elements to them.

4. Do you have experience with game development? What did you do/with what engine? 

Very little. About three weeks with Unity, messed with Godot a while ago, but focusing on Unity right now.

5. Tell us about something you're passionate about! 

Right now, my family. Everything else is are just side hobbies.

6. What are your goals for this game jam?

Make something, anything. Everything I start I've abandoned so far. Perhaps a deadline might get me to stick with an idea for more than a day.

Hello There! My name is Gavin and I have wanted to be a game dev since I was about 7. Some of my reasoning for joining this jam was because I had gotten a new engine (gameguru MAX) and wanted to test the visuals. I had no real inspiration for this game, mainly because I don't know any other walking sims. I usually make my games in BIMA (https://www.blackicemod.org/ ) since I know the engine very well and have made/will be making more games in it. I'm really passionate about this, and game development is something that I want to do for a very long time. My goals for this jam are to impress people with the work of a 13 year old.
