Fishing Jam rules/introduction!

[MrPink]

I am SO in!

great idea!

I have been gifted with many abilities but art and design aren't one of them. If you're someone who is interested in participating but doesn't know how to code very well, but is really good at making sprites, I would be interested in teaming up. I do have a game idea, but I'd look into other ideas (provided i don't begin coding already.)

Thanks!

I've been wanting to make a fishing game for years.

Question:
Will there be a system to allow the submissions to be rated/ranked to determine the best?

[SophieH]

There won't be any ratings/rankings. this is a non-competitive jam and everyone's games will be the best!

Hi, I'm a composer and I've never participated in a game jam before. I've made a few simple games myself but music is really my thing. This sounds like fun. How do I get on a team (or teams)?

Hi!

Don't know if this is the right place to do this, but I would love to join someone and provide some audio!

Hello! I am very interested in this jam!

I am a novice game programmer and I find this jam a wonderful experience to polish up my skills and meet people!

I have read the rules but I have a doubt. The game submissions are up to Sunday?

Thanks for your answer!

I recently made my first "complete" game during Ludum Dare and since I'm high on motivation, I thought I'd continue that streak by taking part in this.

Thank you,Sophie for coming up with this. Really digging the relaxed and almost cozy feel this forum has.
Personally glad the jam rules are flexible. I have my finals this week and while I'm intent on finishing this game within the allotted one week, I also don't want to flunk my exams so the extra grace period is appreciated.
