What time is it? It's the time for an early bird "I'm in" post!

It will be my 5th LD in a row, so I'm excited and engaged to finish the game and make it the most polished game of mine. I know, I always say it, but this very time I've got a plan.

Several things make the upcoming LD special for me:

• Siberian Game Jam team is hosting the local event again! It's always so much fun to jam together with the best developers of the city. So if you're planning to jam somewhere around Novosibirsk, head to CityCenter, we're waiting for you.

• My girlfriend @syudzius decided to join me this time! No more "programmer's art" 'cause the real artist appeared out of the blue and said "heard you're a jammer, I wanna join" (okay, it was slightly different). She's also so thrilled with her first game jam, can't wait to start!

• My old buddy @komnotmr is still busy with his army stuff and won't be around to generate bright ideas and implement features. =(

Talking about tools, here's what I've got:

• It's sad to admit, but despite spending nights trying all the weird stuff I could find, including Forth, Haxe, several Lisps, Elixir and even a good old C (no additional characters included), I still prefer to make games in JavaScript. Maybe someday the curse will be broken, but for now I want to concentrate on polishing the game, not building my own tool.

• Vim still is the best text editor I tried.

• I have no idea what software will my real artist use to produce Real Art™.

• I have no idea what software do musicians use to produce sounds, but I've got an Akai Professional LPK25 and I'm definitely using it for the jam. I'm aware that the word "Professional" in the name doesn't make me a composer, but hey, it still has a better interface then any software synth I used. :laughing:

Let's make some games! :video_game: And may the theme not suck this time (seriously, we can do better than applying "Running out of..." to every single noun on Earth).
