GGJ2020

This weekend we created "Repair Robots" - a local multiplayer game for 2-4 players about moving boxes around while under programming constraints.

This started from the idea of trying to make the players feel like they were acting within their programming. It went through a surprisingly large number of iterations for a 48 hour game jam - at times you could reprogram the available actions, once it was co-op! I think if I had time for another iteration I would have added a teams mode as I feel that would make the interaction feel less frustrating when opponents are blocking you. Maybe that'll come in future

Southampton Game Jam 2020 was a ton of a fun and I'm glad to be making games again. Hopefully won't be so long until the next one!
