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.

Man, I want to join in this event so badly, but I'm not sure if I want to be on Zeigfried's team or Pizza's team.

I would have joined pianotm's team, but his team is already full. :(


the blank spot on my team is reserved for now.

Noice!
And Libert is like the best name ever.

Edit: I'm excited about Ziggy's Batch and Let's Pretend to make a game
and Beefcakes and Grrlz and results of theirs.

You're magical to me.

Team-name is temporary, for now. Would be more humorous if we actually do a Might and Magic fan-game.

Members should be okay, though, I literally just PMed Kloe about adding Cap, because I'm slow and bad.

*Edit: So, I finally get to see unity/Zeig in action. Wait, JOSERAPH too!? Darigaaz, that's freaking awesome!

You'd think MZ would use a dictionary for switches/variables by now?

Now to realize that I'm the only lone guy(?)... *sigh*
Why don't you hook up with my boy InfectionFiles?

Nothing reveals Humanity so well as the games it plays. A game of betrayal, where the most suspicious person is brutally murdered? How savage.

I've been thinking it over, and I think I can actually join this, although I thought I couldn't at first. If Bart thinks he has enough time to participate in August, then surely so should I. I also kind of want to redeem myself for my lack of internet during the first jam. T.T

So if there's any VXAce teams who'll have me, I'd like to join!

I'd say I'm best at puzzle design and eventing, though anyone who's played Empress of China will know I tend to make my puzzles a bit on the difficult side. But if I'm in a team, I'm sure people can hold me back from going to extremes with the difficulty. ^.^'

Would anyone like to have a cat on their team? I have got a full time job so I won't be ultra useful, but I can contribute stuff here and there.
I'm very intrigued by this.

If anyone needs a portrait/bust/possibly sprite artist, an amateur programmer, or a novice mapper please do tell ^^
If anyone needs an Artist, Writer, Mapper, or Music Developer hit me up. I'm pretty good with a writing, drawing and mapping but I'm also decent at making music. :)

EDIT: I just realized I entered this last year and had to bail because of a car accident. I don't know if that disqualify's me to enter this year or not but if you can tell me that would be cool.
I think this would be fun.
Anyone want to try working with an emotionally unstable artist?
Maybe I'll take a stab at this, though I don't know how much I could contribute.

We could try and team up?
Hey, I play the piano, I've been learning to draw for a few years now (although still far from being a pro), So if someone has an extra ticket I would be glad to help with what I can. (I have finals in the second week of august but after that I have 2 whole free weeks :D)

Stand back. Artist at work. I paint with enthusiasm if not with talent.
