I enjoy some guides out there about game jam survivalism. But I found a brief post for those interested in the key points for game jamming https://medium.com/@nikpantis/game-jams-a-survival-guide-wri...

The shortest jam I've done so far was a week (PyWeek) and although my team won we barely finished. 48/72 hours seems tough but I really want to try it.
I'll probably do this! I never finished a game but sounds like a fun challenge and I some free time this weekend. I'm a composer so I'll keep everything very light and just focus on the music and programming in order to practice Rust.
Thank you for the heads up!
Do we need to register right now? Or can we just submit when we're done? Anything I have to submit today at 6PM, or can I just start working on it at my time?
EDIT: Created an account!
Highly recommend taking a shot at LD. Games are great fun to make and doing one from scratch in a rush is a fantastic way to learn a bunch of things quickly. Also, I haven't done an LD for many years but I still have some online friends I met there. I suggest giving it a try!
I was ready to commit to this, but the compo ends on Monday 8 PM where I live. I'll probably do the next one, or submit something done in 24 h.
Man how do people have time for this.
I grow up as a kid in wishing to have sufficient experience to join Ludum Dare one day. 15 years later, with kids, I now wish I have free time to join Ludum Dare. Not to mention experience.
