Game

I first learned about Wordle in early 2022, and like so many others, I started to play daily. Eventually I discovered Quordle, which is like Wordle but with 4 words at the same time, and that became my daily game. It also has a practice mode which lets you play as many times a day as you like. I thought it would be great to play a daily game like this to help me keep up with my Spanish. I found a version of Wordle in Spanish, and even tried Quordle’s Spanish version, but I found these difficult to stick with. I felt like some of the words that were being selected as the answers were often obscure.

The GMTK Game Jam happened once again in July 2022, and like the previous year, Thomas and I decided to participate. The jam started on a Friday, and we were able to begin right away. Thomas took a half day off of work, and I wasn’t busy at work that day, so I just kept an eye out in case I was needed at work while the jam started.

In June 2021, my frequent co-conspirator Thomas sent me a message asking I wanted to participate in a game jam that weekend. I had never done a game jam before, but it was something I had been meaning to try for a while, so of course I agreed. And then he told me the game jam had already started, so we had less than the allotted 48 hours to make a complete game! The game jam was the GMTK Game Jam 2021 and the theme for the jam was “Joined Together.”
