Cozy Winter Jam 2023 & post-jam plans


๐ŸŽ„Happy Holidays! ๐ŸŽ„

The jam is over. We had a great time making our demo and playing everyone's amazing games. Thank you to everyone who played and rated our game, and gave feedback! 

We were really happy to see that we did pretty well for both Cozy Winter Vibes (#6) and Fun (#8). Presentation was not as high (#38), but that was totally expected since we didn't manage to polish the game in time, and we didn't have proper character models. (Actually, Bluchu did make some characters, but I wasn't able to get them integrated in time, sorry ๐Ÿ˜…). Overall we came 17th place and we are very happy with that result! Thank you!

This jam had some new challanges for us. We have done multiple game jams together before, but this was our first time making a 3D game. Also, it was our first time working together with such a big time difference (7 hours) since one of us has moved abroad since we last did a game jam. That being said, we had a blast, and it was great to get back to doing jams together for the first time in ages!

Now we are starting to work on the post-jam version, which will include: 

  • Character models/animations
  • Start screen
  • Proper ending(s) 
  • Fixed dialogue system (interacting will display the whole line instead of skipping, thanks to everyone who pointed this issue out!)
  • Other polish etc

We are not planning to rush it too much (we want to keep it cozy โ˜•), so it may take a little bit of time, but we definitely want to get it done this winter, so stay tuned!
