This is an awesome idea but the longjam part is bumming me out. I'm not sure I could get myself and my programmer buddy/game jam partner-in-crime to devote two weeks worth of our time to it, given our schedules. 48 hours, though much more limited in scope, is a lot easier to manage.
But that might be going against what you're trying accomplish with this jam so feel free to take my words and toss them in the bin. :D Regardless, this sounds rad and hopefully I can find a way to get in.
Might also be worth linking to PixelProspector's Make Games site. It's filled with a TON of links and resources for engines, audio, and graphics help.
It's already linked on PP's site but I HELLA recommend BFXR for making sound effects. Super quick, easy, and fun to use.
@bisonhero: It isn't a reference to that but I like that you think it is, haha. He's honestly just a robot because a) he likes sci-fi things and b) I needed some variety in the cast.
@cooljammer00: There is and I'll never say why!! Hint hint it's because after working in F2P games if I hear the word "collectible card" I am going to slit all my wrists.
@daveyo520: If we don't say hi to each other I'm gonna throw the biggest shit-fit.
@enk1du: Sadly I don't think I'll reprint these but who knows! Maybe something new will come along later that I can distribute more openly. :>
@mechakirby: I 100% agree with you. Sadly, I just had no time to make him or the others I wanted. Plus, this was coming hot off the heels of that super-time-consuming Rorie poster I made earlier last month. I'd like to add him and other GB/GS people later, still.
@dprotp: I was thinking something like that but I'd feel bad leaving some people out over others. I'll have to think it over.
For everyone asking:
I will make a wallpaper of this because like one out of every 6 comments is asking about it. You are all too lovely. <3 I'm quite busy for the next few days so hopefully you can wait until then. I'm also working on some new additions to the cast.
Additionally, I'd like to get input from people going to PAX East: Would you be into being able to buy like... a pack of trading cards based off these fellas? I'm thinking of printing them in MTG/Pokémon-sized cards and then packaging them into trading card slips or something. Not fully sure how I'd package them, actually. -- Anyway, point is that for as much as I'd LOVE to do that, I'd actually only be able to do it if the costs were offset. To have them printed all nicely, I'd have to charge maybe $5 or something for a full "set" of them. (As in every character.)
I don't know, I'm just gauging interest because it's too late to have shirts done and I'd like to do something for PAX East. If anyone else has ideas, I'm open to it!
@superfusion: I try not to think of that ;-; Largely because I know a lot of people who have gotten significantly further since and I get very sad, hahaha. But thank you :> We'll see about Otakuthon!
@triplestan: SEGA HIT M--oh wait, I don't think they do capsule toys. ... TOMY hmu, I guess? They still gotta be in that business, right?
@poisonmonkey: I... would really like to. I want to do other GB/CBSi people; I guess I've avoided thinking about Ryan because I've yet to do a proper tribute to him. :< Maybe this is finally the venue to do so.
@sanj: Oh? I didn't make one of Jeff, actually. I did do one of his client, however.
@lucri: Maybe! I'd love to get Rorie and Danny in but right now I need to CHILL and maybe do something else with my art time. Been at it for a while with these, haha.
@superkenon: not sure how i would turn these into a wallpaper D: not even sure they're at the right size for it? ill check it out and update if i do make one, though :>
@jeanluc: @ssully: someone tell sega to hmu. seriously i wanna go work there because someone in that company has to be the voice for a new JSRF (and thank you!! <3)
