#GamedevJS Jam 2026 - Day 2: I finally settled on a promising game idea and wrote a short game design document 📄. I also put together a mockup of the main game scene 🪩. Can you guess what the game is about? 🧑🦱🤖
Joined the gamedevjs game jam, so this will be a development thread for my entry!
Hope will not drop it halfway and create a bunch of juicy GIFs to share with you ;)

Always on brainstorming and writing the GDD because I am a slow starter!
Using myself into @MeshyAI to brainstorm about skills and combat animation for the game.
#gamedevjs day 1:
I rendered these things on a JS canvas in 50 lines of code.
Took me 50 minutes (I'm a bit rusty).
I'll try to make an entry in hommage to a very old iPad game that everyone probably forgot.
Now after the MACHINES theme was announced yesterday, how do you like it? Any solid ideas, or are you still brainstorming? Anyone with a prototype already?
Show us what you've got by replying to this message or using the #gamedevjs hashtag!
Day 1 of #GamedevJS!
Today was all about finding a direction that truly excites me. I really enjoyed diving into the "why" behind the theme and figuring out how to translate that intent into game mechanics.
Now, I’ll do my best to get the prototype finished! (ツ)ノ
Day one of the game jam, 13 days to go!
The theme this time is "Machine". I could have shipped Retro Rush II with a new arcane machine!
But I've got my idea for this theme, now it's time to find teammates to build this game!
Good luck to everyone, have fun!
