Hey, it's Dama here, I've decided to join a game jam, you can find the link here for more details:
https://itch.io/jam/phantasia-jam-2023
If you don't yet know what a game jam is, it's basically a challenge where you try to make a game in a certain short amount of time. In this case this game jam is 3 months long, so considering the duration, I'm going to make it at a slower pace compared to the previous jams I've joined before as to not burn ourselves out!
If you're reading this, that means you've decided to join my team! In which case, I just need to know a few things about you and how you want to contribute! Don't stress out about this too much, I'm okay with any amount of contribution, even if you just want to contribute some ideas!
At the end of the day I'm the one responsible for the completion (or cancellation) of the project.
To keep everyone involved in the project - I'll have everyone brainstorm the initial idea together! (and of course we'll work together along the way)
In fact, the jam's rules state that we can already start with the concept before the jam starts, which is why there is a question here that allows you to throw out some ideas if you already have them based on the theme (Phantasia).
There will be an initial call that I would like to do to get everyone to know each other and start settling on a game idea with some brainstorming, so let me know your availability!
And lastly, remember this is just a fun little project so don't burn yourself out over this, at the end of the day I just want everyone to have fun making this game and hopefully learn something out of this! A game jam is not a competition! The only prize is the game and friends we made along the way!
