pst
you know, i don't know if i do either. i literally just took my reading of the guy's poem and tried to figure out what was going through his head at the very end*, with pretty much everything outside of the cruddy dialogue pulled from factual information i gathered from this site (http://www.utahcrossroads.org/DonnerParty/index.html)(and even some of the dialogue was factual[see: the horse bit]). idk if it's complete bullshit that i can kinda pretend to be impartial about something as weighty as the point of it though? ??? ? i mean i DID write the goddamn thing, i should have that level of basic literary self-control right??


RIGHT??!?!


RIGHT???!?!??!?!




*which, ironically, was cut somewhat short because i was trying to meet the deadline and got insanely hungry because i decided i wasn't going to eat until i finished. thought it'd help me RELATE to the woes of a man starving to death but it just made the ending shitty.
it's very good for what it is! i knew why/how you created the game so i want to clarify that i wasn't in any way picking on YOUR skills, i think that was actually really transparent in comparison (and that's good obviously). besides i like this jam thing in many ways but in particulary cos it actually made someone like you (who i can really empathize with artistically i guess) just to CHURN SOMETHING OUT/MAKE SOMETHING LITTLE and that's a pretty good fucking achievement imo. and don't get me fucking started on impartiality, both of the ideas for games i've like EVER liked in my whole life (that i've felt that are worth making) are from my own life and the second one came from this gamejam thing of yours. fuck self-control!!! who the fuck are people kidding for?? there is no art, there's just meaningful experiences or experiments we try to relate/craft out of clay...

i think i'm slowly veering towards catamites view/method (i mean by myself/without influence) of creation of art (who am i kidding here dear audience - did i not just declare there is no art? such is the memory...) - there is a time and place for perfection and having a name is a plus but i'd rather LIVE a dostoyesvsky life/character than meticulously try to create one/be the next dostoyevsky...maybe i should name my creating art - book "SHITTING IN THE WIND" (instead than my first album)... the stuff dreams are made of, That Night out walkin...

gulp sorry b-wiz please *holds b-wiz hand with both hands, archs head* PLEASE take the lead. let me not detain you any longer...

QUESTION: What's the watering about? Are there going to be prelims or something of sorts?

I totally want to vote for something like ennui in the final poll, but it seems like it would cross over with the people voting for malaise, and both of those would just take votes away from the other one.

i think ennui was a dumb suggestion and malaise is a better one even though they aren't 100% the same.

but I want to change my ennui to MAGNETISM

you wanna team up with someone or me? I program, so if you do art/music/whatever we can do somethin. Maybe though honestly I wasn't sure if I can participate in this once, but maybe, I just have like 3 projects at work that all happen to be nearing completion right now so things are tight, time-wise. But maybe.

Yeah, I can team up with you. I can do art well enough, and can probably do some rudimentary sfx based on what the game warrants. Depending on the language and/or engine you like to use, I could possibly help with some of the programming stuff also.

I hesitated to ask directly because I am also hazy on whether or not to actually participate myself. At least this way, you can have a partner that won't hold it against you if it turns out you do need to flake, and we can most likely both flake at once.

I pretty much always go with XNA in C#, or python using pygame, since those are the only two frameworks I really know.

would that take away the whole salt world thing from it, though?

nah, it would just be a place to hold the entries. And saltw would be the only people on it. You just create a competition page called "SALT WORLD GAME JAM #3", set the duration of it. Then people can submit their entry from there, and they can upload screenshot and provide a link to download. All the results are collected and you can browse through the list with screenshots and links. The people who entered can also rate the results, but it's optional. You would still use this forum to discuss and manage things.

anyway I'm looking for people to test it so this would be great!
