I didn't get a project done within the timeframe of the gamejam, which closed today.
But, I still learned a number of things, and I gained some experience too. So, I feel it was nonetheless both rewarding and worthwhile to participate. I intend to try again on more gamejams in the future.
Here is another gamejam starting in less than a month from now that people might be interested in:
https://itch.io/jam/jam-for-all-basic-dialects-6 In the gamejam's description AppGameKit is listed as one of the many BASIC dialects that is suitable for this gamejam.
@jammy Were you able to finish and submit your project for the gamedev.tv gamejam? If so, could you provide a URL / link to it? Thanks!
