Community Jam December 2018 Edition - Corenat Rovarnus - 12-15-2018

This may not be the best time as it's the holiday season and y'all are going about with presents and family, but if I shelve it now I don't know how long it'll be til I remember again.

Let's start discussing options for the next community jam! This time around, there's only one hard rule:
  • Optimized Performance - Runs smoothly, or at all on a lower end PC.
The rest are just suggestions, considered a plus but not a deal-breaker if the game lacks that feature:
  • Economic Accessibility - We're all big kids now, we can pay for games. Just not that new thing that came out last week that's still at full retail price of $60.
  • Flexible Player Count - It's actually more likely that we'll have less people than the required number so we won't have to deal with overflow, and we managed to do Reactive Drop with underpop just fine.
  • Skill Accessibility - Low skill floor is preferred if its a game none of us have ever tried before. Otherwise, just make sure the veterans among us can explain enough to first time players before jumping in.

Now watch as I ignore everything I just said with the following suggestions:

Fortnite - I'm prepared to embrace this mainstream cancer for the sake of the community, if you'll allow me.

Surviv.io - Yeah, I'm serious. It's circles and sticks, there's no way it won't run on your computer. It's got the standard Battle Royale player count flexibility: solos, duos, squad.

Realm Royale - Are you seeing a trend here? In this one there are no parachutes, you just smash the ground like a boss. Pseudo-RPG class system, gear forging, and mounts.

Oh man, right next to Jesus. I had another idea that I neglected to mention in the OP: Instead of a game jam, we could have a ProZ movie night. Don't have to worry about hardware and player count and such, just set up one of those simulcast services like Rabb.it or Netflix 360noscope. How about it?

Well don't know how intensive it will be, but you can get vermentide 1 for a buck atm on green man gaming.

3. Shadow Warrior 2

4. Bookclub

5. Solve captchas as a team

6. Convert to Christianity

I actually have Vermintide 1 already, I guess that'll be an option if you have it too.

@"vroop" 1,2, and 3 will be on the poll, but I'm summarily rejecting 5 and 6. You'll have to elaborate on what #4 entails.

RE: Community Jam December 2018 Edition - Kaede - 12-21-2018

I got an idea, let's all play Aliens colonial marines it's co-op.

RE: Community Jam December 2018 Edition - Corenat Rovarnus - 12-21-2018

lol it's basically Reactive Drop except 3D and featuring a beloved franchise? Well, it's currently going for $5.99 on steam which I assume is why you wrecc'd it. Approved, poll's gonna come up on saturday or something like that so the rest of you have until then for any more suggestions

RE: Community Jam December 2018 Edition - Kaede - 12-21-2018

Actually it's more that it's a horrible game that gearbox may have diverted funds for that game to Borderlands 2. They also screwed it up so badly that to fix the game you have to correct a spelling error in an ini file to make the xenomorph ai better.

RE: Community Jam December 2018 Edition - Corenat Rovarnus - 12-21-2018

So that was a joke suggestion?

RE: Community Jam December 2018 Edition - Kaede - 12-21-2018

It could be, if people wanna spend the money.

RE: Community Jam December 2018 Edition - Kaede - 12-26-2018

Don't know if this is still going on, but Stardew valley multiplayer is out of beta from what I hear.

RE: Community Jam December 2018 Edition - Corenat Rovarnus - 12-26-2018

Alright poll's up kids. I have the feeling that a stardew valley session will end up like minecraft, but whatever.

RE: Community Jam December 2018 Edition - Corenat Rovarnus - 01-03-2019

Uhh...looks like a tie between surviv.io and shadow warrior 2?

RE: Community Jam December 2018 Edition - SilkScarf - 01-26-2019

Suggested H4L0 as well.
