EDIT:
So week 1 is now completed, onto week 2! This week's words are Contagion, Hard Decisions and Party Games. Got a few ideas for this one so far, thinking about a turn based multiplayer game...

Hi guys,
I've been making little games for a while using game maker now and begun struggling for inspiration a bit. After reading some articles I've decided I'm going to give the whole 'make a game a week for a year' a go. I figured there's no better way to force yourself to come up with new ideas and get practice in a wide variety of game styles. Hopefully by the end of the year I will come out a far better designer and programmer .
I currently work 4 days a week, so I will have 1 full day a week to work on this plus any spare time I can find (plus weekends). Also anyone who wants to join me on this would love to have the company.
RULES:
- Monday Morning each project will start and it will have to be finished by Sunday night (midnight)
- A finished product will have to be posted online for people to view (and hopefully get feedback)
- I will only be using GameMaker for this
- Games will be based around 3 word themes (game jam style), for this I will be using http://www.cowfacegames.com/handytools/ludum-dare-theme-generator and will try avoid using double up words through the year
- All art work will be made by the designer (no borrowing external art)
- Will try to post atleast a couple of development updates each week
