Description

CHECK IN Time! Submit and image of something youve been working on for this and if possible, leave a link on the pic to your games page. Check in time will last until the 28th at Midnight GMT. after that, you'll get no credit for check in. Entries must be submitted and not just posted for credit.

The theme: Inspiration! What has inspired you to makes games, or creative stuff for the matter? Make a game based off of what has inspired people in your team!


I'm sure many of you have wished to work with someone new, especially someone well known and respected, or maybe just someone who's gotten your attention and appreciation of their work. Perhaps you aren't well known but would like to meet and collaborate with some people, show what you got? Are you just looking for something a little different? While not all of these can be promised, it would be nice to be able to do some of these, yes? I give you, McBacon Jam.



Here are the basics this time around:
  • Any engine is fine.
  • No restrictions on resources used. Also, as last time, and as it stands, commissioning an outsider is fine so long as it isn't that much work and doesn't effect the team dynamic.
  • This event will run from (August)3/10/2017 to (September)4/19/2017
  • I will announce a theme on the 10th; that is when your team can officially begin, as last time.
  • Team sizes must be a minimum of 2 with a maximum of 4 (remember, this is about collaborations). Solo entries will not be accepted for this.
  • If you already have a team decided, be sure all members join said team.
  • Team setups cannot be the exact same as they were in McBacon Jam #1 & #2. Each new jam means different team arrangements!
  • If bizarre circumstances occur or if you're having some team issues, let me know and I will take care of things accordingly.
  • you may adjust your teams as needed for whatever reason before the first check in without it effecting whether or not you can use that team in the future. However, if the people leaving did add something to the game being made, they should at least be given a special thanks, as a courtesy.

Important question, Kloe: Do you use the Comfy Chair when viewing Libstreams?


Only with the soft cushions. And she can only have one cup of coffee!
It's not too late if I can still find a team, right?

I'd be up to be a programmer on a native/SDL game.

As something of a clarification: if my team makes a game inspired by the Might and Magic series, would that fit the theme of this event? Such a game might not directly answer the question of what has inspired the members of the team to make games, but, is a game based off of what has inspired the team.

Basically what we did is we decided to mash what all of our inspirations were. I was inspired by a bunch of horror rpgs, gourd was inspired by Danganronpa, Punkitt was inspired by Earthbound and Cave Story and Bart was inspired by good fantasy stories. We decided to have a little bit of all of them and we're coming up with a horror/mystery/quirky comedy/fantasy set in a cave :)
LockeZ
I'd really like to get rid of LockeZ. His play style is way too unpredictable. He's always like this too. If he ran a country, he'd just kill and imprison people at random until crime stopped.

Like the last two McBacon jams, it is almost impossible to come up with a game that doesn't fit the theme.

If you were inspired by might and magic games then its totally fine. The theme is about what inspired YOU FOLKS taking part in this.
Anyone else looking for a team? Ive used rpgmaker quite a bit but mostly use Clickteam fusion 2.5 . Am up for helping out in a team.

Message me on twitter if your interested in teaming up.
This event is a good opportunity to experiment team game making. I would like to join. I have some C programming skills, used SDL2 a bit. I'm mostly interested in game mechanics implementation, logic systems and improving my communication and programming skills.

I recommend anyone interested in participating in going ahead and PM'ing a person instead of posting "hey anyone wanna team?" unless you're well known because otherwise literally no one will contact you.

Wow, every team is using ace, even though there's no restriction.
Is it too late to join this event? Never did a bacon thing before.

Anyone interested in teaming, my contribution = probably making simple puzzles.
(Nothing that will take more than a couple days at most.)
=Push boulders to certain locations.
=Player can teleport to set locations. (Push button to set location, push button to recall.)
=Player goes through maze, but can only touch a square one time.
=Treasure chests give random stuff.
=Running crazy fast.
=Script stuff can include jumping, hook shot, etc...

This makes me realize that there's Lloyd's Beacon functionality that I put into Okiku's teleport script. I'm not sure if such a function is useful for our game as of yet, though.
You can join me. Be warned, my team name is accurate.
If anyone was working with RenPy or RPG Maker XP... I might join.

Script? There's a script that does that? Variables all the way!
Hey guys, I sent you my skype name in PM, let me know when you're free to chat some ideas and organise some stuff.
