Here we are, last weekend before October begins. I wanted to do some quick housekeeping related to the jam.

I'm curious as to how many people are interested and have managed to start their projects for the jam. Let's do a headcount - if you're working on something for the jam, or planning on it, say so in the comments!

If there are any artists who can't find a programmer, I'd like to know if you'd be interested in using Meiker to make a game for the jam. Essentially, the website turns a PSD file into a functional dress-up game using tags in the layer names. While it will lack some functionality compared to coding something yourself, it might make it possible to participate. If there's enough interest, I could run interference between the admin and NG mods to see if it's acceptable for jam entries to be made off-site.

Thanks for checking in!
