Better book off the weekend
I'm MUCH prefer that over some wack timer.Another theme guess:
THREE SIMPLE RULES
Yes. It's just always been tradition to use wacky adjectives in the titles for the jams. HahaAh I see! So the theme of the jam is not related at all to "tropical" right? Instead the entire theme is based upon those three words (with missing letters)?
(I'm new to this, if you can guess )

Bonus points if your game includes a tropical theme, too. (Unofficially, of course.)Yes. It's just always been tradition to use wacky adjectives in the titles for the jams. Haha
Nice, a Batman theme.Exactly 3 days to go!

Or the last.Yeah, the first word is definitely three.
T H R E E / TOr the last.

That would be a very weird bundle of games I believeThree M'lady Dudes

To be fair it would probably be quite the memorable jam.That would be a very weird bundle of games I believe

I brainstormed some ideas and to me, the biggest problem seems to be the scope. Most of my ideas for a 3 minute time cycle require tons of content to stay fresh for 3 minutes, nevertheless for several cycles of 3.Though thinking more about it, instead of THREE MINUTE TIMER (which might or might not be the actual theme), I'd much prefer "TIME LIMIT" or "LIMITED TIME" or something.
Having it specifically three-minutes restricts pacing a lot. So I hope it's not THREE MINUTE TIMER, because having the limited-time mechanic is one thing, but restricted pacing is a big trouble, and really hard to adjust the game to (unless three minutes are not actually three minutes).
point well made.Or the last.
Three minutes is a lot more time then it first seems, just get a stop watch, set it for 3 minutes, it will feel like a long time, sit and do all this and then realize that more then 3 minutes have past,'Having it specifically three-minutes restricts pacing a lot. So I hope it's not THREE MINUTE TIMER, because having the limited-time mechanic is one thing, but restricted pacing is a big trouble, and really hard to adjust the game to (unless three minutes are not actually three minutes).
And as ghandpivot pointed out, since we're likely to play a given entry at least a few times, we end up with longer playtimes because of the time restriction.
(unless three minutes are not actually three minutes).
Darn, I'd secretly hoped I was the only one with this thought.Nine definitions of the word "minute":
Jams are supposed to be about thinking outside the box, aren't they?
- a period of time equal to sixty seconds or a sixtieth of an hour.
- the distance covered in sixty seconds by someone driving or walking.
- (informal) a very short time.
- an instant or a point of time.
- a sixtieth of a degree of angular measurement (symbol: ʹ).
- extremely small.
- so small as to verge on insignificance.
- (of an inquiry or investigation, or an account of one) taking the smallest points into consideration; precise and meticulous.
- record or note (the proceedings of a meeting or a specified item among such proceedings).
They kinda are, but if you go for a more unusual interpretation of a word:Jams are supposed to be about thinking outside the box, aren't they?
