Raptor :gamedev: on Nostr: I wish there were more game jams I could participate in. Annoyingly all the big ones ...
I wish there were more game jams I could participate in. Annoyingly all the big ones (and most of the small ones) make super restrictive choices like requiring a windows build during the time of the jam, which means you can't do interesting platforms and for those of us not on windows even doing a desktop build means burning 50% of the time on porting. I wish more jams allowed porting to happen post-submission like ludum dare does.
