still, feel free to talk here
hi ho, salt pals and newcomers alike! I'm Neuropath.
and I'm Tiny's First Pepsi! and together we're hosting...
the 2013 winter salt game making jam!
this here's the second in what we hope is gonna be a seasonal game jam tradition!
we had us some
real good entries last fall, from game jam vets and complete novices alike!
A game jam's where you make a little game over a short period of time. Turns out it's not hard to do, with the right tools and a bit of gumption!
y'all can use helpful software like twine, klik 'n play, gamemaker, and adobe flash, OR you could make it all from scratch!
the gamemaking begins on DEC 21st! At that time, the official thread will be posted, and it will explain...
there ain't hard rules we're gonna hold anyone to. you can even work with others!
BUT...! there are some wicked rad themes that will be posted on the commencement thread.
you don't gotta use them, but hoo doggy, we don't wanna spoil nothing, but let's just say the cool kids are definitely gonna. and bein' cool is what gets you votes and... gets you prize!
so, are you SALT ENOUGH TO MAKE GAME?
A skull to hold your wealth... to be mounted on a pedestal engraved with YOUR NAME! or whatever else you'd like!
it contains many secrets and treasures... and a curse! *wolf whistle* I'm in love already ~ <3
and there's more where that came from. we're gonna be handing out at least 3 prizes by the time all's said and done this christmas season!
newcomers, get yourself a saltw account and introduce yourself here!
while you're at it, see some of the cool salt
sights and
spectacles. like what you see? then consider yourself welcomed to our humble little secret society.
for newcomers and old salts alike, now's the time to
announce your intention to join!
and maybe tell us a little about what tools you might want to use!
this thread's a great place to find team-mates, or just to chill out and soak up the salt environment
and spread the word! #swjam it from twitter, whisper it to yr friends in the dead of night
shout it from rooftops and tie messages to yr pets and release them to the streets! let the world know, come winter...
it's time to JAM Dec 21st, Midnight GMT. Be ready. It comes... for you!
