Title: SFML Game Jam 2 Preparations
Post by: Jebbs on November 15, 2013, 09:02:11 pm: Greetings everyone!

I just wanted to give a little update since it has been a while and the next jam will be here sooner than we think! Starting December 1st I will be putting all of my current projects on hiatus and will be making the jam my main priority until it actually goes down.

I'm already going to start making a list of everything I would like to have ready before it starts, but please feel free to post any questions, concerns, complaints, ideas, etc. that you would like to see taken care of/implemented/what ever before the jam starts.

10 weeks 4 days

Party countdown! Woo!

Assuming there aren't any other issues people have, that should be pretty accurate.

Oh! Well, I was planning to have it start the same time as last time. 15:00 UTC, with the theme announced an hour prior.
