Hello everyone. I was thinking about something... what about making sporadically “mini jams” private to the love community. Here’s the proposal: the organizators of the jam will decide some meeting time, when we will join a discord server and start programming for about an hour, following a theme. Also, there will be judges, and everyone has to record their process or stream it. Choosen games will be uploaded (The screen record) to some youtube channel, It can be mine. And also all games that took part would be shown. I think this can grow our community! Let me know what you think :D

    I don't like it, some people could steal my code and game ideas.

    You literally have a github account with some games. It's an hour of programming, nothing more. It's ok though

    I mean, it's this idea is to make us a closer together comunnity, not to developt amazing revolutianary ideas. You can be a judge if you want.

    I *love* the idea, but 1 hour is not enough for me.

    Okey then, let's do 2 hours. I don't know, I'd like to know people that use love2d too.

    Feel free to make use of the Jams channel and/or the streaming channels in the LÖVE Discord server, if you want.

    Okay :D. But I don't know how to organize it. I need a little more difussion.

    I'm not its creator, I'm just one of the people who have contributed to its development. :)

    There have been previous Löve-specific jams, see https://love2d.org/forums/viewtopic.php?t=83459 and https://love2d.org/forums/viewtopic.php?t=84866 (but it's hard to search for them because of the ridiculous phpBB limit with 3 letter words)
