Super Excited For My First LD

Very excited to try this ludum dare out!

This is my first time participating, and I can't wait for it to start!

Looking forward to everyone's submissions and wish everyone good luck!

I'm In!!

I will be using...

Unity 2017 Audacity Photoshop LMMS

Good luck to you all! :smile:

Another "I'm in" post

Just want to say "I'm in"

Hopefully I can reuse my stuff from last LD. Like Gimp, and JavaScript.

I forgot to stock up food this time, and there is a plan to do things this weekend... I hope I can still find time to do things. :)

Good Luck everyone!

Lets get it

LETS GET IT Untitled.png

I'm In!

Hobbyist, 2nd Ludum Dare

Using: Gamemaker Audacity Photoshop

Second time doing this

Im ready for my second time. will use love2d game engine, Gimp, sfxr, Energy drink.

YEEEAH I'M IN

Gonna be my fifth Ludum Dare (though I didn't complete the last one).

I am freakin' stoked! Previously I've only done the Compo but will be doing the Jam for the first time now since I got Monday off. It will be three glorious caffeine fuelled days.

Will most likely use these tools:

Game Engine / IDE: Unity + VS Code.

Music: Octatrack + some synths (picked up an SH-01A recently so that will likely appear), bfxr, maaaybe LSDJ and/or Bitwig.

Graphics: MagicaVoxel! I just discovered this a couple of weeks ago and it's amazing and super easy to use. Here's a ramen shop I made:

Shop.png

Also maybe PyxelEdit for any UI or HUD stuff I have to make.

Have fun in the Jam y'all

First Ludum Dare, First Complete Game

I have a dozen games suffering from ballooning scope. Now that I have a deadline I'll be sure to keep it small and get it done for once. I'll be using Unity, Blender, Piskel, GIMP, Audacity, LMMS and SFXR mostly. Have fun everyone!

All Set To Go!

This is my first game jam and I am excited! I'm in a team of 2 and we will be using Game-maker Studio 1.4, Photoshop and Audacity.

Good luck everyone!

Antici....

..pation X(

We are in

My girlfriend and I are going in deep! This is our first game jam working together, she will be working on the art, and I will be programming. Our tools are:

Gimp, Blender, Audacity, Unity 3D, C#, and pen and paper

Good luck everyone!

EUSA Jam

New group to EUSA GAMES

Sure, why not

It's been ~2 years since I've done this, so I'll (probably) try it out this time around. I'm going to aim to make a multiplayer game this time, so it likely won't get finished in time. 🚀

My first GJ

Aseprite + Construct 2 + GarageBand + Bfxr.

I hope it works.

I'm In

Excited for my first Ludum Dare

Will be using Game Maker Studio and Audacity

Good luck everyone!!

I'm in LD40!

I think this is my 4th Ludum Dare. Just incase the 48 hours isn't enough time, I'll be entering the Jam.

Programming language: LiveScript/JavaScript Engine: ThreeJS Editor: Vim Image editor: Gimp

Hope everyone enjoys Ludum Dare :)

First LD!

One-man team here. I'm very excited for my first Ludum Dare! I'll be using:

Unity C# Graphics Gale BFXR

I'll be making my own music using: Reaper Jackson RR3 Flying V Electric Guitar Fender Acoustic Guitar Behringer XENYX X1204USB Mixer Shure SM58 Microphone Yamaha PSR-78 Keyboard

I'm in

I forgot until the last minute to do this post but you I'm in and rocking unity for my game engine of choice as well as using ISOpix as my sprite maker

I'm in with challenges!

So, me and my friends won't be able to participate all the weekend, just the sunday. So each one of us will try make a simple game for the compo, but with some challenge\limitations:

1- Just one level

2- A color palette with just 7 colors

3- A personal challenge

We'll use Construct 2, Godot 3.0 beta and Unity. I'll pick Godot. My personal challenge is: I won't use shadows and lights, just unshaded material (i.e: toon shade)

My tools:

1- Godot 3.0 beta

2- Gravit Designer

3- PhotoPea

4- cgMusic

5- LabChirp

6- Blender

7- GitKraken

8- MagicaVoxel (Maybe)

Let's see what we can do!

Ready to Start

Hi there o/

My name is Kef, a french Gamedev based in Tokyo.

I think I will go for the Compo this time, even if I'm a bit scared by the audio part (I don't have much experience in that area)

My weapons: * Unity 3D / VS studio 2017 * Paint.net * Audacity * MagicaVoxel * Github * Lot of coffee

Except that, it’s time to wake up and put some music.

Good luck everyone and good LD 40!!

My soul is sold

Ready for Round 3

I may have numerous projects and responsibilities, but for 48 hours 3 times a year, my soul is officially sold to the dare. I'm bout to be wrecked after this process is over. Ah well, such is the cost of 48 hours of delicious game making.

My tools: Unity.

My goals: Make a shader.

My fears: Lol how do I make a game again...

Alright LD40, Hit me with your best shot

(and then please gimme a moment to recover)

We are groot

We are in...
let"s make a game

It is coming near

Get ready lads, The Ludum Dare is coming near!

LD40 Here We Go!

I've been wanting to do Ludum Dare for a while now, and as far as I'm concerned, there's no better time to give it a crack than the summer holidays! I haven't even touched Unity for at least 6 months, so it's quite possible I won't get a finished game up but hey, at least i'll have something to aim towards for my second game jam :)

Tools i'll be using are: - Unity3D - Inkscape - Gimp (If I decide to go with pixel art) - Blender (If I can remember how to use it so probably not but i'll leave it here anyways) - Some kind of music software, i'll work that out when i get there XD

Have fun guys, I can't wait to see what you come up with :D

In it.

To completion.

Preparations...

Unity ✓

Photoshop ✓

Source Tree ✓

Coffee ✓✓✓

Sanity ?

Guess I'm in.

One more newcomer

Hi all, it's time for me to give this a shot. I'll be using Game Maker Studio. Good luck to everyone ^^

We're super excited to participate in the Jam!

wayne_loop.gif

I'm excited to be coding in Phaser and perhaps doing music and sound effects in Audacity.

My son Henri (10) is excited to make pixel art using Pixaki.

Wayne (5) is just excited.

Hello I am Kyper :)

This will be my second attempt at LD. My last one was 38 and it did not go so well. My hope for this jam is to nail down the gameplay early on so that i can focus more on polish, and(hopefully) produce an enjoyable game in the process.

:) GLHF Everyone!

Come on time

I wish time can go faster just for this event!

I think I'm in

Never did this before. Will probably use Godot 3.0 beta or Love2D depending on the theme and what scope I decide to go with.

IM IN!!!!

Will be using unity, and brainpower, and caffeine. Probably something to make noises too, Audacity? sure Audacity

I'm in.

This will be my 3rd LD Jam. I've been trying to start learning Unity but I do not know enough yet so I will have to program in gamemaker. (shudders)

Doing my first 1st Ludum Dare today!

I'm super excited for this I'm not the most experienced game developer but I'm super excited to see how this turns out! :D

Good luck to everyone! :D

First time!

First LD! My wife and I will be doing a game together. I will be doing programming and art. She will be doing music and sound effects. :D

1 HOUR LEFT

Let's do this!

I'll be using:

  • Java
  • Paint.NET
  • FL Studio?

Lesgooooo

1 hour left! Wasn't entirely sure if I'd do it this time but here I am, gonna use Unity, Paint.net, and bfxr

I am not really in. But kinda in anyway.

I can't afford 48hours this week-end for ludum. But I can afford 3 or 4 hours. In the past I have already commit to create a game in 3 hours (can't find it on my files, so can't show it right now) !

Anyway I will use P5.Js for everything. The game won't have any music. And will most likely be an arcade game.

VAMO QUE VAMO

Primeiro LD !

Se for BR, já dá aquele Like e simboraaaaa! :D

HeyGuys

Hey, this is my 4th LD. I was proud of my last jam as I got much better results than my first 2, this time around I hope to improve on my score even more and hopefully place a top #100.

Using: Unity MagikaVoxel Visual Studio Sublime bfxr Photoshop CS6 Audacity

Good luck, and for god’s sake please vote a good, substance filled theme!

Almost Panda and our first time in Ludum Dare

Hi

We are Almost Panda, a game studio from Brazil comprised of four members who share, in addition to their passion for games, the desire to create fun and engaging experiences!

This will be our first Ludum Dare and we are looking forward to make our first game and play all the cool games the gamedev community will create.

Hello hello!

Hey folks! I’ll be competing using Scala with LibGDX, artemis-odb and probably a whole bunch of other open source libraries, depending on the theme. This’ll be my first year, I’m excited!

Good luck, everyone!

Definitely ready

Plan is to use purely Pico-8 for the jam. It'll be a fun switchup from previous jams using Flixel, Unity, or even straight C++. Also looking forward to the fact that I've setup a jam space for some friends to join in as well. Hard to be a communal experience for an otherwise solo jam.

First Ludum Dare

Really excited to start in an hour. Good luck to everyone!

UE4 Dev looking for team mates. Can do all job roles and has HTC VIVE

I'm looking for other team members for this event. This is my first LD and I'd like to make something cool. I use Unreal Engine 4 and I can do all job roles. I own an htc vive and two high end pc's so plenty of power for split work load.

I have published a game on steam early access and it is still under development and I also have several other projects I am working on or apart of; I have intermediate experience.

Other Software: -blender -paint.net -just downloaded magicavoxel -auto rigging tools -UE4 plugins and systems (see images below)

I also own A LOT of marketplace content.lib1.PNG lib2.PNG lib3.PNG

If no one joins me I will do a solo project.

link to steam game End of Days (outdated trailer) http://store.steampowered.com/app/694660/EndofDays/

First Ludum Dare!

I've always wanted to do this, hoping for an interesting theme! gl everyone!

I'm in

now lets see if i can contort the theme into one of the ideas i already have :P

This is insanity...

Still a toss up between using Love2D and trying to learn how to work with libGDX. Making a game in a weekend (or trying anyway) is just pure insanity, though.

i'm in!

Ok so fingers crossed I won’t abandon this one, too.

As usual, the 48 hour compo by myself, Unity, Visual Studio, maybe MagicaVoxel? maybe Paint.NET? Blender? We’ll see.

Good luck and have fun, everyone!

Fool Studios - First Ludum Dare

I'm finally around for a Ludum Dare and I am excited to take part in this jam. I hope that people like silent games because I am terrible with music! Either way, I will be using GameMaker Studio 2 and Aseprite as the main two programs being used.

Lessss go!

We're using Unity and getting ready for the theme to drop. Also we wanna put lewds in the game (by the by)

Our ballot: votez.PNG

My first Ludum Dare

Is it always like this - 50% bouncy excitement and 50% white-knuckle terror!? ;) I love it. Please vote on a theme! I can't wait to see what people create.

I'm in

Ready to do this!

just one more hour

AAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAA

it comes

it comes

it comes

Hi! My name is also In.

Wait... :thinking: Well you get my point. I have participated many times before. Still not entirely decided on tools. Either it's Tic-80, C-openGL, C+SDL or js+webgl or.. something else.

First LD with Sphinx !

We are about to do our first LD this weekend ! and we will live the entire ludum dare

Basic tools: - Unity - Photoshop - FL studio - 3DS max Here's the link, check it out ! https://www.twitch.tv/reborntv1 Good luck everyone !

Our First Ludum Dare

Excited to give this a shot. We'll likely end up using Unity! Good luck all!

Hoping for Broken World

I have an idea for a floating island game I would like to do! I am really hoping for Broken World, as I have some nice cloud systems I would like to use and lots of new physics!

Best of Luck!

Best of luck guys! We're coming close to the theme release :yum:

I'm in... I think?

I'll hopefully find some time this weekend.

I'm In!

Hello all, I will be using Unity to make my game! Sounds and music (if I have the time for it) will be done using Famitracker and graphics in OpenCanvas and/or paint dot net. Good luck everyone!

It's been a while, but I'm in!

Last Ludum Dare I participated in was LD35 so I'm excited to see how far the new site is and jump back into making a game.

I'll be using my custom and very basic JavaScript engine that I've built up over the previous Ludum Dares which can be found here

Software will include: - Intellij for code - Gimp for graphics - JFXR for sounds - Github for easy source control and hosting

Good luck and have fun everyone!

I am in! (I think)

Last LD I was recently laid-off, this time I just got some new jobs! :D Work has been piling up, though, and I don't know if I'll be able to make it, since I'm in quite a rush to finish a website until next Monday! :sob:

I hope the theme will be a good one too! ;)

Will take part in the Jam again, and will be using GameMaker Studio 2 (or 1, who knows), Aseprite, Affinity Designer/Photo, FL Studio, AmpKit and whatever I can make use of! ;)

I'll also use one of these libraries I wrote for controllers in GM, is possible: - Controller Scripts: https://github.com/yuigoto/yx-gm-control-scripts; - Touch Controller Scripts: https://github.com/yuigoto/yx-gm-touch-controls;

This is the allmighty empty repo I'll be using! Look at how empty it its! https://github.com/yuigoto/yx-jam-LD-40

Good luck and have some great fun making games y'all! ;)

attempt[2] = TeamStructure.Solo;

Hiya again lovely people! Hope everyone is in good spirits, or at least has some sitting around.

Hi huh

Gonna try to participate for the first time. Will use adobe animate + construct 2 + fl studio.

Hey devs!

Here we are, ready for our first LD as a team!

We will be using Unity for coding, Audacity and BFXR for audio and Illustrator or Aseprite for art, depending if our game asks for Vectors or Pixels :D

We are sure that it will be an awesome experience, like always, and hope to release a polished little game.

But you know what would be really nice? To make something Worth of working on after the LD :3

So - GLHF, everyone!

I'm In!

Looking forward to another Ludum Dare and I'll be competing in the compo again this time. I recently learned a lot more about Unity during another game jam I participated in and hope to use and expand on that here!

Engine: Unity
Graphics: paint.net, Gimp
Sounds: bfxr

I'm in for a relaxed one!

Having quite some stuff to do, but I really wanna join!
Might make something small using Bitsy!

Like my dad said to me

Games are like an art, you just gotta make it to the best of your ability
