I'm hoping to turn up. Will grab a ticket in the new year when I'm more sure. My first jam, so will be interesting.  |

Ishi poked me to this and so I very well may pop along. Maybe the money can go to an endless supply of heavily spiced chips? I quite liked those...  |

That poster is misrepresentative! We don't have any tigers. :D
(Kidding. I loves it!)

Just signed up for this, and I am also down for the hotel/hostel thing.
Actually, I nearly replied to the mentioned hostel thread for Tigjam UK 3, but keep that between you and the internets.
I'll be there to pretend I can program and to make bleeps and bloops for other peoples hard work, if they let me.

Okay... How's this for a first post?
I really want to come to your gathering in Cambridge!
Just one thing: 3 hrs to make a game? I was another of those institutionalised AAA developers (though a narrative designer rather than code) and I can't remember the last time I took less than a week making a GDD, let alone the whole game. (I did once write the story to a game in 3hrs, but it was hardly Heavy Rain...)
All my indie efforts have been web-based (PHP is my weapon of choice, since I never got the hang of Flash) and built in Linux at that. As such, my laptop is running Ubuntu. That's not going to be a big issue is it?
Just need to check with a friend in Cambridge, see if I can crash (together with my wife and child) in his spare room, but I really can't see any reason not to do this. It may be what I need to break me out of that "18-36 month development-cycle" mindset.

Hey ho, welcome to the forums! 3 hrs to make a game? So, you can take as long as you want really - some people come along and work on their own stuff for the weekend, some people start making something and Just Can't Stop and work on it for the whole weekend, other people do other stuff. And everything's opt-in, so you can basically do stuff at your own pace All my indie efforts have been web-based (PHP is my weapon of choice, since I never got the hang of Flash) and built in Linux at that. As such, my laptop is running Ubuntu. That's not going to be a big issue is it? hahah you can have whatever you want installed on your laptop.

That said, give me a decent artist and I think we might be onto something... I worked as a designer-scripter before specialising (and then losing my job in the recession), so I can fall into either role as need dictates. Thinking about it... (not so easy as it nears 2am) ..since a narrative designer is both writer and designer, I suppose that means I need a programmer-artist to complement my skills.  |

You're a jack of all trades? Willing to try to do lend your hand to new, exciting, and unfamiliar things? Excellent! (don't worry - you'll quite likely find people to collab with - but I'd also recommend not ruling out the possibility of doing fabulous things solo from time to time either - because that can also be great. ) Oddly enough, I have used Ren'Py for a couple of projects, but nothing that I would want to show to the world. hee hee |

I'm not so much a Jack of All Trades, but I am willing to learn anything people will teach me. I still know enough C++ to do basic programming and I have been making stick-men for stand-ins ever since I started going Indie. In fact, compared to some, my stick-men are not bad.
edit:
If I weren't "[w]illing to try to do lend [my] hand to new, exciting, and unfamiliar things", I wouldn't be much good to man nor beast outside the clearly-role-delineated world of AAA.

If you can code that much, you can code more than I can!  Anyway, 3 hours is not too bad when you get used to it (Actually, before my first jam I think I did a couple of test runs, to see how much I could make quickly, and made a couple of games in 4 hours) |
