LD48 2010 Swimsuit Calendar!!
Hey folks, Phil here .. So we’ve talked about this project for years, but I think it’s time we took action. Enough of us have been getting shape that I think it’s time we showed the world that game developers can be totally ripped.
Here’s the deal, I’ll get the calendar on cafepress or something, and all proceeds will go towards supporting the website. If we make lots and lots of money, we’ll come up with something way cool to do with it. Like fly everyone out to some tropical island and have a spectacular LD party for 48 hours sometime.
So the idea is to get your photo rounded up by October, so we can have the calendar available for sale in November. Photos should include yourself in a swimsuit as well as game related stuff in the background or something of equal or greater awesomeness. We may include some baseball card-like stats of “wins in LDs” or other such stuff somewhere. And maybe a brief bio. We’ll want these to be 300 dpi or some kind of hi-res image. When we get closer to the deadline we’ll work out more details on exactly how we want the pages laid out.
In the case that we have more than 12 people submit a page for the calendar, the entrants who have competed in more LDs will get preference.
Fine print: make it a current picture. No using a picture from 4 years previous when you were in shape. The idea is to get yourself into shape NOW so that you’re ready for the calendar!!

Just a quick question, what kind of shape are we talking about? Glass cutting diamond hard shape or shape of personal preference?
best idea ever guys, I cant wait to see it
Christ almighty, having my mug on a timelapse is bad enough!
Do you have to be an incredibly accomplished game maker? I’ve made one so far and plan to participate in the next mini LD and LDD. Would that be enough, or should I wait until my game catalog is as strong as my rippling pecs?
Last time I checked round was a shape.
why not have two entrants months or say one per week
Don’t forget to blog about it on http://www.ludumdare.com/pushups
The pushup program is amazing(ly painful).
How old does the photo have to be, or are there any best before rules regarding the photo?
