Seems like our #LudumDare58 game is giving our game designer quite a head scratcher. He's still figuring new things out and tweaking the numbers 3 days after the end of the jam.

Given that we usually immediately drop the project after hitting submit, I guess simulating an entire economy has […]

It's interesting to see how despite only 300 fewer entries in #LudumDare58 than in #LudumDare57, the homepage feed felt a lot more dead than what I'm used to from previous iterations of the jam.

And it lives! After 3 days of questioning if we'll manage to make a somewhat manageable economy in time, I think we've succeeded! Our #LudumDare58 spreadsheet simul... ahem, *game*, Taxcellent is live over at […]

#LudumDare58 day 3: We're really starting to believe this entire game should've been an excel macro. So many graphs and tables.

Day 1 of #ludumdare58 done, we have terrain generation working and a surprising amount of the economy simulation as well.

Tomorrow's plan is a ton of balancing and further simulation of environment changes based on the economy.

A bit of progress to show!

I think it's going to be roguelite thing where your lantern is your weapon and you are trying to find (collect) little friends and save them from the darkness.

Still works, that's the point

Struggled all night with a concept for #LDJam58 🥴
My brain was fried, nothing clicked.
Then I stepped outside, looked up and the answer literally stared back at me on the street. 🐔🥚✨

In a rather common turn of events for #ludumdare, the theme of #ldjam58 seems to be one of the worst ones that were available in the final round of voting. The fact that only a couple themes had a positive score at all is telling […]

Ludum Dare 57 is back! Sponsored by GameMaker | Ludum Dare

@gamemaker.io I noticed the announcement where you saved #LDJam57 was the day before the event ( ludumdare.com/news/ludum-d... ) ... can you comment on the likelihood of your company sponsoring #LDJam58 in October?

And now I see there are some out there using a fuller #LDJam tag, so...any #LDJam58 sponsors out there? =]
