  1. I made a game for a game jam! Check it out if you wanna, and maybe vote for it when voting opens? http://pny.lv/js8m

    (Fair warning: like everything else you've seen from me, it's unfairly hard)

    1. @redenchilada I'll probably get really cheesed about the difficulty but vote for it anyway to support you

        1. @redenchilada It's not your fault, it's the intention of your design and it works. I think your games are generally well constructed, I just usually kind of suck at them.

          1. @northernnarwhal Most of it's just a lack of ability to playtest combined with trying to keep things from becoming a cakewalk. So I swing too far in the opposite direction, lol

            1. @redenchilada I guess if I was better at programming they certainly wouldn't be the kinds of games I'd create but at the same time that's just reflective of my personal creative priorities.

              1. @northernnarwhal Honestly, they're not the kinds of games I really wanna make either, but they're what comes out of me when I wanna push out a game quickly. It's just easier to make games hard, I suppose.

                1. @redenchilada Yeah, I think making a game really painfully difficult or lazily easy doesn't require too much effort, but reconciling those two to make a game that's both engaging but fair is where real excellent game design comes through. I know it has a reputation for being kind of gruesome, but I actually thought Dark Souls handled this compromise of difficultly really well and had a great philosophy of difficulty that involved giving the player the benefit of the doubt.
