- Fishpuns, and lots of them

Specs?:

Anyone know how to link to posts?

This main post is going to be subject to massive changes as the idea evolve.
To be continued!

Good luck!

Thanks, and good luck to you too.

Really REALLY hoping that "mullet hell" is not a typo

[Jon Aanes]

Of course not, I love puns.
And this game is going to feature lots of puns.

Heh, nice take on the fishing theme Jokes are great fun both to weave into games and to find in games, I'm keen to see what you make!

The jam has finally come, and I am preparing to get to work tomorrow.
Being the Scandinavian that I am, expect updates around 19:00-21:00 GMT through the whole week.
Tomorrow is going to be a exception, in that I am going to be travelling the most of the day. (Luckily I am not the driver, so I can still work.)
I am also still in school and homework will still come before the game.

The game is going to be designed to run at 60 fps on a pretty bad pc.
Other fps limits will be available (30-300 fps).
And have a window of 500 x 500 pixels. (Still pending)

The final version of the game will be uploaded around 20:00 GMT on Monday the 27th of May.
I am expecting to use 50% of the time making ("bad") fish puns, and the rest actually making the game.

Off-topic:
Do anyone know when the other boards are going online, I have some questions.
Noticeably if is possible to link to individual posts. (Would come in handy)
