Project Ball Joint [Oops, overscoped]
A downloadable game
Thank you for participating in the Pervert Game Jam.
We are happy to share with you our very own perverse contribution.
We gathered together, first and foremost to have fun. Despite the tight schedule, we decided to dream big, and create the game we wanted rather than the one we could (within the deadline).
So, we present to you now with what we managed to create so far, with mostly no crunch.
The game is obviously not finished. And that's your problem. Fuck you.
~ The Dev Team
This was the message our lead writer suggested to put as a foreword for the game when we obviously couldn't finish what we had planned. This was before the heart issues I suffered, this was before the team crunching-but-not-crunching-because-we-said-we-wouldn't, this was before throwing the towel and listening to ourselves.
We didn't finish. We didn't make something playable.
But we did have fun and learn a lot.
It was a very ambitious project: team of 9, for some their first jam. Original music, SFX recorded on tape, traditional art to be scanned later, guest artists, trusting the writing team not to balloon the scope, etc
As the game director, I'm immensely proud of what has been made and a bit sad not being able to show it all to you perverts... yet!
We didn't finish for the jam, but we still want to make you all suffer playing as much as we suffered making the damn thing. We plan on writing a jam post-mortem to hopefully help others learn from our mistakes and what we did right. We will also try to work and upload the original vision we had.
Until then,
Toodle pip
A huge thanks to the team:

Hands down the most cruel writing I’ve had the pleasure to write. Excited to share soon !
I can attest. I had a heart failure because of it (probably)
