It is very easy to get a softlock state where you're stuck sending the same two people who don't like each other on dates.

I like to think of it as a feature: now it's one of those cool timeloop games but instead of assassins, it's people who aren't into each other going on awful dates for all eternity

Here's our finished game for #ldjam51 https://ldjam.com/events/ludum-dare/51/10-second-pairer

This one taught me a lot about game jam scope stuff: It's not only about the complexity of the gameplay, having an idea that requires tons of textures and music makes the game even more difficult to finish

It's a good idea that iOS adds the names of all installed apps to its autocorrect dictionary.

What's not so great is that every time I want to write -ish, it autocorrects it to iSh, the terminal app I've got installed

Dear websites,

It is very unlikely that I want to chat with a support person and even less likely that I want to chat with a bad chat bot.
What further decreases that likelihood is that I have just opened you for the first time to find out what your company does.
These popups, and especially fake notification alerts are not helpful in the slightest.

Really feeling the importance of making a game that is fun from the early prototype stages onwards during #ldjam51.

The last two games we made had that quality, which made them great to work on.
The current one doesn't because it needs a ton of stuff to be in place for it to be playable, which slows progress down a lot :/

In the world of this game, dating an S-Bahn train is a thing people can do (mostly because I was tired of drawing only people) and I think some people on here would like that xD

I'm done for today.

Someone really should've warned me that making a game about matching dating profiles would include drawing tons of profile pictures .-.

I haven't written a single line of code today but I'm still really drained from all the asset work I did.

Good thing the main gameplay loop is relatively simple, so I can spend the rest of the jam making even more profiles and building an adaptive music system.

People who use online dating: what are some funny dating profile tropes?

We're building a semi-satirical game about being a matching algorithm for #ldjam51 and I need some ideas for more profiles.
