Game jam experience

I'm already having a nice time developing a fresh game. It feels great seeing the knowledge I've gathered over the past few month. It's not going to be a amaazing game but I'm proud of it already. What about you? Have you started your project and how does it feel? 

I'm not taking part of this Jam because I won't be home for some time, but I have done two jams so far, the last two weeks (Weekly game jams) and I really liked the experience, because I really takes you out of your comfort zone and forces you to start working on things and stop overthinking every little aspect of your game. And sometimes you think a feature will be easy to implement but when you get to work, you realize that thing will take you a couple of hours instead of minutes and I really like that feeling. Also the theme limitation is amazing because you make games about things that you never thought you'd make. 
I'm just really happy that I'm able to join a game jam and have a product at the end of the week or after just a couple of days. 

If you want you can check my latest entry 'Lucky Scraper' in my profile.

Have a nice day!

First game jam, pretty fun time, having a time and idea constraint makes it so I don't get wrapped up in my own head too much.

Ohman the time limit is tough 馃槃 atleast now you have a original animated character that's pretty cool

This was my first time but enjoyed it. I started later than I should of and didn't realise how hard the time constraints are but pretty happy in the end. Looking forward to trying everyones out.
