That’s the theme.  You’ve got all weekend to do this, no set start or end time.  But it’s “honor system” that you pick 48 hours within the weekend to do your stuff.  The regular “strict” rules of the LD are relaxed, so do whatever it takes to make a cool game!

Have fun!

    Iiiiinteresting. This is actually a surprisingly good fit for a game idea I’ve got floating around unstarted, so I may well have to have a go at it.

    Oh. My. God. Awesome theme. I’m not going to have very much time but now I’m really going to try and make something.

    Oh wow! Being in Vermont I might just have to do my game about the Catamount which is a cougar of the Green Mountain many farmer insist exists but the Forest Service says no.

    You guys know this weekend is New York Comic Con, right? Otherwise I’d probably chime in with a hodag game…

    FINAL

    I’m not feeling very hot about this.

    From scratch is not an effort I’m use to. I make something once, and then copy it and update it for all other projects as I need to.

    Therefore, doing it from scratch I was stumbling over all sorts of things I had to relearn.

    Nothing worth showing, just a lot of bitmap art which didn’t appear on the screen and a colorful triangle which moves around the screen. Oh well, next time.

    Yep, I epic failed as well. Too much life happening right now, I was crazy to even think I could do it. :)

    Next time!
