I'm in for the LD26 (48h Game Jam) with Monkey and Diddy...
Theme is: MINIMALISM

I decided to go with a gameplay I will have fun to implement, and think it as minimalist…

I will go with a 2D top view car racing game, with a bit of retro style, and very minimalist in everything: code, visual, gameplay… but still fun to play.

I will work 1 hour today, then 2 or 3 hours tonight… and same (or less) tomorrow. It’s quite a 8 hours Game Jam for me… Actually, my time is minimalist as well

I'm based in France, I'm leading a professional Game Studio In Real Life (http://www.casualboxgames.com).

It’s done!



Total amount of work is about 10 hours… far less than the 48 allowed right? But during the Week End I managed to get the idea, to implement and submit the game + having fun with friends, my wife and my kids. Cool Week End!

Not bad for a quick game, but there's something wrong with the distance counter. Sometimes it freezes for what seems like ages, when I would expect it to be increasing at a fairly constant speed.
