Heya, everyone; I'm Budaniel on behalf of AAGH Games, and we're definitely in for Ludum Dare 41. We had to skip LD40 while working on our new game (which we still don't have ready to reveal yet, but dammit, that's going to happen sometime soon, I swear), but we're taking the time off to partake in one of our favorite events.

As per usual, I'll be heading up the programming and graphics while @floata-1 manages the audio and level design. We'll also be streaming our development on our Twitch channel.

Here's to another fun, entertaining, and educational Ludum Dare!

We are a team of two passionate gamers ready to take on the challenge for our first ludum dare ! Hope to see you all around !

Hey there! We are "Gentlemen Teaparty", two German programming beginners, and this will be our first Ludum Dare! Both Max (the programmer) and me (the artist) never created a game together but I think we'll have fun anyway! :]

We are 3 people indie dev team (Mana Potion Studios) and we are super excited to joining LD#41, our first jam!

Would you like custom tailored original sound effects for your LD#41 video game? Would you like music that fits the theme and vibe of your game? Would you like to work with someone who has the same passion for games as you do?

LD#39 Veteran coming at you in full effect! Looking to join a team who would like to work with a sound designer or music producer! If interested I can send you links to my work. Let me know if you'd like to work together!

I've finally gotten around to remaking my LD38 entry, A Relatively Small World, in Game Maker Studio 2. I'm adding a lot of cool functions, puzzles, and animals, and possibly even a couple more levels.
Play the original and tell me what you think could be added!

I will be working with a friend on my first LD. I don't think I need to post to register but I'm doing it anyway.

I learned a lot from my past project and I hope to learn the same, if not more, from this next Ludum Dare. I'm personally a solo dev, but am willing to take on a composer if push comes to shove.

Hey yo! This will be my Nth time participating. I have not been doing any gamedev in the last few months and I do not intend getting back to it until LD starts. I hope it will give me a new, fresh viewpoint on the whole game creation pipeline/method. Also I hope that the theme will be good this time and that I will get all the ideas that accumulated in me during these past months. Good luck to everyone doing the jam! <3

The list of stuff I'll use:
engine: unity3d (EDIT, I might use pico8 if I just feel like it :D)
art: blender, paint.net, inkscape
sound: audacity, ableton

Hi guys!

My last entry was for ld26 (wow) and I want to participate to the next one but I can’t log in with my legacy username and password.

Do I need to create a new one or is there a step that I missed? I didn’t find the answer online.

Hope to test your games soon!

Cheers!

I will participate for my first ludum dare jam. I will use Unity / Photoshop and probably Bosca Ceoil. Good luck !

Gonna try doing this one in Python using Pyglet,

Music on Ableton,

Art in Photoshop.

Oh, and I'm not competing. I'll be jamming with these good fellows:

@rmilligan, @sventi555

Now that i have some spare time, i can finally join the jam :smile:

Tools i'll be probably using: - Graphics: SFML or Godot - Audio: LMMS + Audacity - Art: Krita - Coding: Code-OSS or CodeBlock

Hyped :smile:

🤔

Oh, boy. I've finally decided to do my first Ludum Dare. I've been looking at it for over two years and I always thought to myself that I wasn't good enough, but this time, I think I'm finally going to do it. I'm still probably not good enough, but I'll give it a shot anyway. Good luck to all!

Here's what I'm planning on using to create my game:

Art: GIMP 2, Blender, MagicaVoxel, Goxel

Audio: Audacity

Engine: Unity

Programming: MonoDevelop

Well, my 10th solo. Man, even after 9 times of slaving away 48 hours while trying to balance health, programming, sleeping, and eating chocolate, ludum dare still has that charm to it. I'm super excited to go insane over the weekend again, and it's awesome to see that so many of you feel the same!

For beginners: Don't be scared. Just have fun! Make something so insanely small that there's no way you won't finish it. The feeling you get from finishing something simple is 1000x better than biting off more than you can chew. So enjoy it, and make something fun :)

For those who have done it before: Try something new! Force yourself to put your perfectionism on pause. Keep yourself hydrated, fed, and well rested. Above all, have fun and challenge yourself -- that's what this is all about!

Blog posts are always something I loved reading during previous ludum dares so I thought it was only natural to write one now that I'm fully participating. I've been watching and playing and assisting on the games of ludum dare since #32 back but never joined compo for many reasons but now I'm 18, know every part I need to know to do it myself, and am finally ready to jump right in for my very first one! Super excited, good luck everyone, See you on the other side!

Art: Photoshop and Illustrator

Audio: Audacity and Adobe Audition

Engine: Unity, Unreal Engine or something HTML5

Programming: MonoDevelop and/or Atom

I'm ieyfo, I run the Discord for Ludum Dare it was stared back for LD36 and we have grown as a community to over 1000+ members and growing more everyday. I personally love the community we have formed and I want you to become a part of it :).

Last Ludum Dare was amazing 500+ new people and so many good chats and opinions. We hope to continue this for the next Ludum Dare. The main goal of the discord is not to just chat but grow LD as an event. There are millions and millions of game developers yet so few participate in LD when it's already huge. SO LETS MAKE IT BIGGER. We can use the server as a way to show other game devs what there missing from not participating in LD.

Last Ludum Dare we were asked to partner with crowdforge.io and now there Ludum Dare area has a direct link too our discord.

All the mods and Mike himself are in there so why not join?

Why Discord and why my discord for LD?

First I know many people loooveeee IRC well for you if you don't wanna switch don't that is up to you but know change is happening and more and more people are switching over every day. I think now is a good time to join us :).

Next Discord is an amazing place with voice chat, video chat, screen share, all super fast and better than anything Iv'e ever used. Also discord is amazing for sharing project assets or anything you wanna no need to link images like IRC just paste them in. You're not just a name and a string of text you are you and people can easily get to know you.

Next why to join our discord well we are the biggest 1000+ strong and growing. In a non biased opinion the most fun and organized discord with section and channels for everything you could need whether you're doing Ludum Dare or game development or programming in general we got you!

We hope to see you there V INVITE LINK https://discord.gg/kwSW9SR
