So flood control has failed... I guess we should turn it up? New rule: only one post per user per hour. Anything more and you get an error!

YoYo Games just published this blog post about using GameMaker in game jams :) features a few of the people here (including me) as interviewees!

That's awesome! Crazy that like 66% of top games were gm. The best thing about the GMC jams is the community. So I recently just finished up an itch.io jam with 22 entries, most of which were beginner to intermediate developers. So I did what we all do here, made a post where I reviewed everyones games giving critique, improvements, what I liked ect. It was weird cause everyone was like floored by the effort I put in and all I was thinking was like "damn it was only 22 entries and I didnt even go THAT in depth". It was an eye opener as to how much this community values giving critique and helping each other become better developers. I had only ever participated in the GMC jams before that one so to me I was like "well duh this is normal." Guys...its not. And I love it! I thank everyone that participates in these jams and puts the time in to review and play! :D

Edit: spelling / more spelling
btw if y'all wanna check out the project I did for that jam I would love some of that yummy GMC feedback! It's a vaporwave shmup that veers towards the "metal slug" type of gameplay.

So, no parallel universe? :D
Hmm...

Here's two random guesses:
PASSERBY/DISGUISE
PANDEMIC/FUGITIVE

(it could also be PANDEMIC RESPONSE)

So of @Neo_Kesha's list of 81 words I think the most likely are:

Patience, patients, patterns, pandemic, pathetic, and parmesan.

Of those I think the most likely are:
Pandemic (world relevant), patterns (mechanic relevant), patience (mechanic relevant), or pathetic (personal relevance).

The second word is much harder when pairing to these. Of course "pandemic response" is still applicable and makes the most sense.

It sure looks like "pandemic response" to me. I don't think that would be a bad topic. Yes, we're all tired of it, but if ever we're going to write a game about covid, this is the time.

First word is:
pathetic
pandemic
patience
patterns

Second word is:
Treasure
Pressure
preserve
presence
oversize
override
flexible
overcome
exercise
everyone
creature

"Patience Everyone", pandemic related
"Pathetic creature", me_irl related

I think there's another space somewhere...
"Pause is /the xxxE"...?
"Patterns/are/xxxx
I think the / could mean that the first and second part are opposites, and either side can have more than one word.

I've thought so much about the pandemic theme possibility that I might feel extremely disappointed and face a creative block if it's not actually pandemic
