The Year After: Global Game Jam 2015


Seeing that this game was made during the Global Game Jam 2014, I just wanted to let you all know that this Global Game Jam played out a whole lot differently and lot more excitedly!

Where “A Day In My Mind” had me working alone, this new game, “Don’t Press Play” had me pretty much leading and working with 5 other people. “A Day In My Mind” lacked art but with the help of an additional programmer and with the aid of a whole bunch of artists, “Don’t Press Play” has all sorts of color and pop.

Yes, this means that “Don’t Press Play” wasn’t trying to be as personal but what came out of it that I wasn’t able to do with “A Day In My Mind” was that the game wasn’t a safe idea for me.

Though there are no posted games I made before “A Day In My Mind”, I have been a Ludum Dare game jammer while also trying out all sorts of things in flash, including an unreleased game project that was a lot more direct about some of my feelings back in late 2012 to late 2013.

With “Block Stack” (which is still a WIP) and “Don’t Press Play” (which will still be updated), I’m trying all sorts of new things from new ways to play, new ways to think about when I make games, new ways of making games, from working in teams to working with different kinds of art styles, as weird as my gamemaker lifestyle has been, and as black and white I love to make my games, whether they are played or not, It’s really fun to watch people play rather than having to feel embarrassed like a kid having their diary read in front of their elementary school class.

Does this mean I won’t want to work on a possible sequal for “A Day in My Mind”? No, it doesn’t BUT I’m definitely getting this feeling of confidence and pride that I’ve never really had for my work until now.

If you’d like to look at and, maybe, play my latest creations, want to hate, like, comment, or criticize, definitely do.

As I’ve said before, every game’s leading up to somewhere, might as well share what I make with everyone.
