A friend of the usual group and I wanted to try to compete on a gamejam with a team of completely new people, so we did for the “Global Game 2023“.

With a team of 7 people, we created a small top down base building game in which you play a beaver that tries to plant various “buildings”, on always corroding soil. You can stop the soil from corroding with the roots of trees, which enables you to place the other plants to generate more ressources. The goal is to upgrade the central Lotus to it’s maximum upgrade level.

This jam was unrated, so there is no ranking.

For the Ludum Dare 52 in a team of 5, we tried to create a space game with a modular space ship, but unfortunately a team member had to drop out suddenly and we had big troubles to due to little manpower. In the end we didn’t get actual gameplay in the game. It is more of a technical showcase. But it turned out very pretty.

The game “Stickler” was made for the “Secret Santa Jam 2022“. The idea of the jam is, that you write a letter to your Secret Santa, which makes a game for you based on the letter, while you create a game for the giftee you were chosen for.

Since my giftee wanted to reminisce in old flash game like games, I wanted to recreate the game “One Finger Death Punch”. At least in a basic way. I ended up not having much time during the December the jam took place and didn’t put as much time into the game as I wanted. But it is functional in the end.

This jam was unrated, so there were no placements. But I got nice feedback from the giftee, who was happy about the end product.

This game was an entry for the Manasoup Game Jam 2.

We overscoped very hard on this project and it was pretty much a failure. There is still a playable game in there, but it didn’t really work out.
