@lizz and I had the agreement to look at the theme at around 4:30AM (theme would have been announced for 1,5 hours by then). But she accidentally saw a discord push notification at 3AM; SIGNAL She woke me up to tell me at 3AM and I was like... Hmm... That can literally be anything, and decided to continue sleep as my mind wasn't racing instantly. A classical case of choice paralysis I guess.

However, in my dream I had a vision! This game would become :sparkles:Where's Waldo with extra steps:sparkles:. I won't tell yet how SIGNAL is implemented yet. We just finished brainstorming, as she's making a game too. We had a fun idea to overlap some little details if time allows us to

First a big ol' cup o' joe and then I'll start prototyping :coffee: Have fun everyone!

I don't know if I ever told y'all, but for most gamejams now I released nightly builds in between development when I think I hit a milestone or when Pizza arrives :grin:

You can check out this page during the weekend to see the latest developments

At the moment of writing this, there is one build with not much to see. But hey, there is progress! This lil man is waiting for you

With a sparkly water in one hand, and the keyboard in the other ( ~~this sentence makes no sense~~ ) I will try to play most games that are on my 'to-play-list" I compiled today. Luckily there are 17 days left :grin:

Have fun everyone! Remember: playing, rating and quality feedback is what LudumDare is actually about! It makes us all better game developers.

Leaving this here :slight_smile: https://symondsresearch.com/feedback-sandwich-technique/

Play as one of many mushrooms and try to find your soulmate in the big forest (the one looking IDENTICAL to you). Once found, you can dig in to establish a love connection with them.

Use the underground mycelium network by digging in to receive signals to get a clue where they’re located. Be mindful, though; you have limited stamina that needs regular replenishing.

It's a short and sweet game to play in between the more complex and demanding games, have fun :smile:

As there are 11 days left until the rating round closes, lets focus our attention to the danger zone for the last 10-ish days.

These people made some exceptional games, but did not get 20 ratings yet. Let's help them out! 🛟
