fauna~otchi takes overall 1st place in the game jam! LET'S GOOOOO
the previous issues definitely lost fair points in the entertainment section, but damn, I did not expect a clean sweep of two categories
small jam, only 21 entries, but this is probably the first thing i've won in over 8 years
im going to be riding this high for a while :>
Ugh, lack of some explicit UI/UX not caught in play testing, means that many folks are not actually getting to the meaty end game of our #lispgamejam #autumnlispgamejam submission...
I added some tips to the description, but I'm kicking myself for not keeping the player on rails and hope it's not going to impact the impressions too much... We put a lot of work into the endings only a few minutes away from starting the game
Kinda sad to see only 21 submissions to the #autumnlispgamejam #lispgamejam this year. Spring 2024 had so many people, and I believe the Autumn one did as well. Both 2025 jams had about 25 submissions, and way less joins as well.
Maybe 2024 was just an abnormally popular year?
yet another shoutout to @copheemoth and @endesga for their awesome lost century and eponymous 16 color palettes, respectively!
these two palettes set the mood for our dual in game and in real life setting for our game jam submission
the dithering and crt shaders would not look as good without their beautiful colors
another shoutout to @loafbrr for their [wooden furnitures open game art](https://opengameart.org/content/wooden-furnitures)
CC-0 assets definitely helped us finish our 10 day jam smoothly

shoutout to @bbbbbr for their [den of snakes pixel font](https://bbbbbr.itch.io/den-of-snakes-pixel-fonts)
we had a lot to do in 10 days, and CC-0 artist work definitely supported us to the finish line.
we listed everyone in attributions on itch, and afaik bbbbbr is the only person on mastodon. if you recognize anyone else, feel free to link them in this thread!
Cleaned up, packed, and shipped our Autumn Lisp 2025 game jam submission tonight! Here's a video of the first 45 seconds of our game: fauna~otchi.
"fauna~otchi is a game about smashing bugs, and watering a plant on a silly console."
There's a lot of little details and multiple endings to experience. We did our best to respect your time, so it's quite a short and sweet experience. Hope you enjoy it!
Me: ok, I probably won't have a real game to show for the #AutumnLispGameJam but at least I hope I can have some decent car physics"
My decent car physics:
the crt shader has gotten a lot better, but i havent been able to show it off because im busy with the #lispgamejam #autumnlispgamejam
we've got a 640x480 crt screen, normal mapped diffuse lighting, live dithering and palette matching, all running at 720p and a smooth 60fps, in the browser on an ancient 2012 Macbook Pro (nvidia 650M)
shoutout to my partner for the awesome 3d renders, gameplay is cooking will share soon
