The Story

This LD was special for a couple of reasons: On a personal level, LD36 took place the very day we moved in our first London flat-share.
Imagine this: Aurel and I with our heavy suitcases, sitting at Gregg's (awful coffee, no wifi, never went again), Aurel working on his game, me keeping busy with to-do lists (I love those), waiting for our room to be available.
Fast-forward a few hours later, in our room, with nothing but a bed, a table and a chair, Aurel making a game, me unpacking things and checking Google Maps to find a store with food, pillows and blankets.
I can tell you are curious about that: it was a Saturday and I found no pillows, that first night we used towels as pillows and coats as blankets. Lucky for Aurel, he didn't sleep much because he was making a game.
The second reason that made this LD stand out is the fact that there were not going to be any ratings: LudumDare was transitioning from the old website to a new one and there were issues (for the longest time): a number of features were not implemented yet.

The Let's Plays

These let's plays are rather unique because I was playing, or trying to play all these games. Occasionaly I had to call Aurel to the rescue.
I keep saying I cannot play platformers, twin stick shooters... I should rephrase: I cannot play them well, and I feel that in the case of gamejams, people want to see their games played, not failed at.

Here's the full playlist
