    I was told not to be shy. I have never made a game. I will not be shy -- I don't know how to make a game.

     

    I opened the link to the Random-Episode selector. It opened to Crazy Crane Deceit. It's an episode about Lobsters and DOTA and The Binding of Buzz Aldrin. I think i can make this. I would like to make this game:

     

    I want to make a crane game titled Crazy Crane's Athlon for Wizard Jam X.

     

    I read the other Dev Logs; someone mentioned they were using Love. So i grabbed the love ppa. Not sure how to open it or what to do with it. I will look up some videos.

     

    For prizes, i have ~10 tabletop rpgs i wrote.

    Crane game w/print 'n' play prizes

    As you move through the crane game, the background shifts to match your changing coordinates

    Each item in the crane game is a handmade RPG to print&play with your friends (if/whenever)

    Turn off defenses to make picking/holding items easier/more wonderful possible

    Music is strum patterns matching your actions (if all inputs constant: 360 notes per minute -- 6 sounds per second)

    Turn on offenses to blast other items out of the way or to clear obstacles (like shelves).

    Crumpl-y/skeuomorphic paper/crease shadows effects

     Concerning seambib2bs, I can't find the to-the-point youtube video from ~2011 where POV's apartment is littered with AR ads and then they turn the ads down for a second to see something and then they turn the ads back up and the video ends cleanly there; so instead here's 2016's 600% louder and longer version featuring the same message.

    Also, you mentioning instapaper reminded me my del.icio.us account, which i am surprised to see starts (http://www.floatingsheep.org/) and ends (www.justicemap.org) with links to user generated maps.
