I am MaD/ren/@zach_no_beard, long time member/lurker of gamingw and saltw
I am going it alone
I will probably go straight HTML5 with either an engine from scratch or impactJS(http://impactjs.com/).  If not that then probably something with love2d/moonscript (one of my favorite programming stacks)
 
I am off to a good start with names: http://apps.baltimoresun.com/Preakness/index.html?q=5&a=Captalism&m=10
perhaps the spooky adventures of capitalism thug

SKELETON PREDICTIONS

If you would like to estimate the number of skeletons to be found in ALL entries at the final submission, please PM me with your guess. Skeletons will be tallied after all qualifying games are released. All graphic and text skeletons count towards the final tally, but do not count double in case of overlap. This does NOT include secret or "easter egg" skeletons. All guesses must be received before the end of the jam.

Hi! I'm Ray, and I'm new here. I will probably be competing if I have time. I will use Unity and Blender. Good luck everyone! ^_^

i'm thinking I need to watch some spooky movies for research and inspiration.  I'm thinking of silent horror films or just plain dorky ones from the 40s-60s era.  Any good recommendations?

Ok mission is set at making a game containing a procedurally generated number of skeletons in order to specifically screw with any and all participants in the "skeleton predictions" mini-game.

EDIT: "Diggin after Dark" is the tentative horse-title.

oh. the racehorse name thing is kinda dumb considering i already had a poll set up. i guess i could try to find one but i'm not sure.
edit: not saying the racehorse name thing is dumb, it's really neat. just the fact that it was kind of last minute.
