We all wanted it, but nobody actually made one :P So, like last Game Jam, this is the thread to share your hardships, get advice, nag AustinBreed for a preloader, and of course, BRAG.
I'm surprised how smoothly the programming is going on my end compared to the last Jam. We're on track to finish early tomorrow, leaving time for balancing the game (which will be needed, given that we have a sim game, Monkey Lab Tycoon) and implementing TEH MEDALS.
Team Albino Butterfly... AWAY!
I lost both my animators.
I'm pretty sure I'm disqualified.
I'm making this game anyway.

Yup I know :3
Ehh, I think that the game jam would be more fun if you could do it on a topic that you really were interested in.
I mean "Penises throwing singing mice" isn't really fun to program.

If I were you, I would have asked for a different theme. I think they could have made a special case if you didn't want your game to be explicit, because technically, that way you're not allowed to add in ads or you won't be able to get a sponsorship with "adult content".
So i wake up, ready to crunch away for the last day, to have my pc crash while working, and now the .fla is corrupt. JOY!
Not the end of the world because all my code is external, but a big set back to get another .fla in order.....
How many times did my lecturers at uni tell me to frequently back up :P

Panic over, new .fla up and running!

Also,good luck everyone!
Unfortunately, I don't think there is a preloader yet :\

It gives you a chance to make something way better the second time.

this one will be a close brush, but seeing as only 3/4 people were doing the work, and one of those 3 is only a musician, I'm happy we're making it this far...
