Hello! It has been two weeks since the our first Ludum Dare jam. Thanks to everyone who played, streamed, rated or commented our game. We still only have 17 votes, so please help us reach at least 20!

It was honestly a surprise how constructive and nice the feedback was. I think it was because we are all creators and can know the intricacies of making a video games. It was thrilling to watch people play our game on stream or read comments, what people received most positively was: - audio & songs - humour in visuals, audio and setting - unique take on the Unstable theme - seagulls

There was also one thing that people universally disliked and that was surprisingly 500MB download 😄

We have identified couple bugs; auto item drop, chance of being locked behind walls, seagull jumps (that could be a feature though). All can be fixed without overhauling the game, and we hope to deliver that once the voting ends and have two separate builds; jam build & revised build.

Finalized the build an hour before the time limit. Our game came up very good in my opinion :)

Now it is time to rest and tomorrow I will check other games. Check ours too in the meantime.

Hello everyone!

I will be streaming your LudumDare 50th edition games today evening, starting 20:00 (UTC/GMT+2/Europe). I'm a small streamer and a jam creator since LD49 (made Plundering Boy and The Ultimate Martian Roulette). I usually stream in Polish, but this time we are going full English, so come join, say hello and show me your game or watch me play if you yourself don't have too much time :)

Add yourself and your game to form. I will be playing games regardless if you will be on stream or not, but will prioritize those that are present.

Starting NOW!

Celebrations!

Today our team is celebrating :tada: 50th rating! :confetti_ball:

Thanks to everyone who played, commented, and rated our game. Even to those who just chatted on our Twitch streams. Your feedback warmed our hearts :heart:, and at the same time we learnt a lot about our own game thanks to your feedback. 50 is more than double of my previous submission from October last year, where I managed to get only 24 ratings. Now there is still a whole week in front of us. Will we get to 100? Maybe? Perhaps, that can only be achieved with your help. Play our game on web

Opting-Out from Audio rating

Many people positively commented on the music and sounds in our game, and while we mixed a lot and credited everyone, we didn't make it ourselves. And as we played other games, read and heard stories of how someone's dad made music, or someone used exotic instruments like Kalimba, or another team made a rhythm game based on their folklore music, we felt it wouldn't be fair to those people and Opted-Out from Audio category.

We believe that choosing the right track, or mixing it well is also a skill, but it can be rated in Mood or Humour categories.

True Before & After

A couple of days ago we posted our progression post

But we also found our very first concept art made on a collaborative board. You can see we pretty much nailed how our game will look in the first couple of hours of brainstorming.

Hello again Ludum Dare!

It is this time of the year again, huh? I hope you are all rested and ready to jam!

Me and my friends at Tano Collective will be participating in our third, consecutive Ludum Dare, yay!

Some of you might know us from previous bangers such as Void Timeline or The Ultimate Martian Roulette:

Or from comment sections of your games and Twitch channels of our friendly streamers where we hang out and check out other games in post-jam rundowns. We will be glad to find you there once the jam ends, but before that, you can find us on our Tano Twitter or the blog posts if you are lucky (it scrolls so fast!).

Important question before I end:

Which theme are you hoping for this year?
