Nothing sucks in gamers like a game jam with achievements. :P

Could be nice, except it’s on twitter. Why would you run a one-year effort on a medium that’s tailored to the attention span of gnats?

So you can post quick status updates (and get them) and you aren’t required to own a site? I think its a smart idea.

Twitter is something you either love or hate I guess. I’m pretty bad at ‘using’ it but I find out more about games and related news from it than I do anywhere else. The size of the posts makes it easy to sift out the irrelevant stuff and it’s perfect for little update streams. It works really well for screenshotsaturday.com and I think this will be similar.

I might have to do this :O

Maybe. Considering how long it took me to complete my last project, I could certainly use a motivator of sorts. Unfortunately, one month doesn’t seem like enough time to make something that could be considered “above average.”

I could try but I’m going to get very busy around the middle of the year, so I doubt I’d be able to do it.

Yeup- I’m doing this. First game will probably be GiTD. Follow me at @RTLShadow

Good stuff!

When it all kicks off I’ll update the OP to show everyone’s games each month. I’ve got you all on the old Twitter, so I’ll try to get them from there – but if you can also post in here when you’ve finished a game, that would help :)

Anyone reading this who is in the GiTD might as well sign up to one game a month. There’s no obligation to make 12 games; you could just submit 3-4 GiTDs over the year and reap the extra plays/praise/feedback from it.

Yeah it’ll be great if we keep an active thread with the 1GAM games and stuff

Mine is @Ploppz
I’ll follow back.

I don’t think I’ll make the GiTD in time because I don’t think I can start before Tuesday, so it might just be an entry for one game a month instead :D

Btw do you get xp determined by the quality/popularity of your game?

I joined. (AleczCushway)
I’m not a very good programmer, and I haven’t been at this very long. Have yet to finish a project. (or at least in my eyes the things I did complete weren’t worthy of my association with “a program” or “a game”)
But thats why I’m joining. Its been a few years… lets make some games!

Also I didn’t realize we had a GiTD going, I had to do a full system format and reboot! You know what, what the heck. First game I’m going to be representing you guys, To the GiTD page!



E: I hope that link helped you out buddy. I’ve already got a great prototype up and running. I believe this won’t be the first GiTD I’ll be entering into this new year.

thank you for sharing that Kewry. That Ira Glass quote at the end was very powerful.
