I'm on board as well! It will be my first time participating, so naturally I'm very excited.

For visuals I'll be using GIMP, but I haven't decided yet on what language/framework to use for the game itself. Probably gonna stick with Unity or XNA (which means C#, yay). I still have to look into what technology to use for audio though.

Good luck and have fun everyone!

Hey everyone, do you know the proper way to get to the rules page (https://ldjam.com/events/ludum-dare/rules)? I could only find it using google, and while I might just be incredibly stupid, I think you shouldn't have to resort to google to find it.

P.S.: Very excited for the theme

I gotta say, it was really fun working on the project. Sadly our idea was a bit too big for this weekend, and I won't be able to do much this evening after work, except maybe polish up a few things.

Our idea was a mix between a board game and a jump'n'run game, but in the first two hours we realized that we wouldn't have time to pull through, so we skipped the ingame-jump'n'run part.

Now it's a very barebone game, with (I'd say) solid mechanics and little content. I'm kinda sad that I didn't manage to make the game fun, but working on it certainly was, and I will try to pretty-up the map this evening so if anything it looks somewhat finished.

Hey guys, a friend of mine can't seem to register, since the website will ask you for your e-mail address, and it will throw an error ("session expired") when you enter either an "n" or a "y".

I tested it myself, and I'm experiencing the same issue. Is anyone else having this problem?

(Edit: Just noticed, it isn't an issue when you try registering in incognito mode.)
