Global Game Jam 2012

So can the licenses only be used as prizes, Tom? He was interested in using them to make the games for the competition, just to be perfectly clear. Prizes are also nice, but not our primary concern. <img src="smileys/smiley36.gif" border="0" align="middle" />

Last question, I promise!

Questions are fine don't worry! It would be best to continue this by email though, please could you email tomsxa@scirra.com with what he's got exactly in mind. I can't promise anything though I'm afraid.

I'm in the Global Game Jam competition..!

Good luck to all! Let's make games.

I'll be attending in Rio de Janeiro with a friend, using Construct 2!

I'm anxious as hell hahaha..

Has anyone participated before? How was it?

Also how big are your teams?

Here in Brasil - Fortaleza we asked a place to investors and we get one place to so much people can sleep and create games =)

I will participate with a little game, I doing that with construct.

We're also in, from Mexico. I will upload our game when the event ends.

Good luck to you all!

Oh, and by the way, is there a way to communicate from one construct 2 game to another (to see if I can apply for one diversifier), and if it can, can you give me an example or telling me how?

kirby: you have several custom plugins for C2 that allow for "Multiplayer/Networking" like the chat plugin or websocket but those makes the communication go through a server.

I'm not sure a direct C2 app to C2 app communication can be made otherwise due to JS restrictions and being executed in a browser.

Hopefuly all those references should allow you to do what you want.

I will see what I can do, maybe not for GGJ, but later I'll definitely try this.

Thank you very much for the links, because they're going to be very very useful this weekend xD

Awwww yeeeah! I'm there! Currently 1 hr into coding. Using vanilla AS3 tho instead of C2 cause that's what both I and the other coder know best.

Watch us on the livestream http://t.co/JMudrJLP :P

Our entry.

Made by a team of 2 people: me and my girlfriend.

*Controls:

mouse - aim

left click - launch

R - reset level

Esc - menu

It's unfinished, still missing an end with a score screen, improvised menus, some bugs, no sound, but you can get the feeling of the mechanics and visuals.

Besides everything we are happy with the results, and enjoyed this year edition. :)

Great Work Animmaniac =)

I loved it, great idea, beatiful graphics.

First time participating in a Global Game Jam, it was pretty fun!

I need to go to one. Some really good games can get made in a short amount of time.
