So easy to use I started making a game before I got my morning coffee! I wasn't even thinking about it! I wasn't awake yet!
Can't wait to see what I can do with this when I'm actually paying attention <3
Took me a long time to read this. I had to work up the courage. I didn't work medical. I was a cashier at a local grocery store/gas station. This entire situation was hell on earth. Arguably worse than hell, at least in hell you know you're there because you deserve it. People went straight into shit. Just the most vile, self-absorbed, abusive shit. Retail is bad to start with but this was a whole new level I had never seen before. I won't go into detail here, but I am inspired to write about my own experiences now. I completely lost my faith in humanity during all of this. I've only recently gotten a tiny electron-sized spark of hope back.
I will forever be grateful, however, that I didn't have to watch people die. I knew it was happening. I also knew that I would absolutely have lost my mind if I had to deal with that myself, in the darkest and most severe definition of the term.
This topic needs to be covered and it's incredibly important. We need to make sure people don't try to forget or minimize how much damage there IS. Not WAS, IS. So many people are dead, and so many are broken and still living. So many people are changed forever, either through the consequences of being infected or the consequences of having to work in proximity to such visceral and unexpected danger. Workers were put straight into the grinder with very little consideration for the risk nor any thought put into proper care during or after. My boss did try his best with what little he had, but even so it was still far too little.
Thank you for finishing this. I remember seeing the first few pages on Twitter years ago, but then I left and I was so sad I might not see it done. (Then when I found it again it was after I Woke Up to how broken this entire situation made me and I couldn't even finish it until now lololol so it goes <3)
Very much enjoyed! Short but sweet. A good concept to continue building from. The theme of blindness gave me extra anxiety, thinking I was going to end up leading Love into danger, but I very much loved the effect it had as I was slowly exploring and building up the world around me. Would love to see more!
I made this Game Jam with the intention to let whoever wanted to work and create do so without fear. Progress is progress!
I did have my own ideas for my submission, but I tossed out two projects with the intent to foster a third. Alas, circumstances kept me from completing this project. But here, at the end of the month and with the Game Jam drawing to a close in a day, I'd like to thank everybody who participated, and those of you who joined with the intention to participate, who ended up not being able to. (Like me.)
I appreciate every one of you, and I hope to see you again next time!
This is awesome!
Progress is progress, even if it's slow to come. I know the Jam is nearly over, but I'd love to keep seeing your progress! Also, I know the focus of the screenshot is on the trees, but that mottled ground texture is really drawing my eye too. I love how it breaks up the colors without losing its subtlety.
I'm thinking about asking my coworker for her mother's cookie recipe. They're a family of witches, apparently, and my coworker's son has been haunted since he was a kid. Very spooky cookies, I imagine.
But I'm most likely going to just have spiked hot chocolate and candy corn. Also, pumpkin pie is required.
