I missed the #2 in art and #3 in fun announcement for our entry, but I watched the VOD, and I'm still smiling. Thank you @sciantsmedia.com and @irishjohngames.bsky.social for hosting the JernJam this year! I can't stop saying it...I had a BLAST working on this game with @captain-onosa.bsky.social!

Seriously couldn't believe that you wanted me to do art. Thanks for inviting me to help make your game with you!

"You Had Mead at Hello" won 2nd Place in Art!

I can't help but laugh at @the.averagegoob.com's reaction when I wanted him for the artist. His talent speaks for itself. We made an ambitious entry and nearly every day he was working on something for it. Well done, Goob!

"You Had Mead at Hello" won 3rd Place in Sound! I asked @ategon.dev to make a song or 2 and they came back with EIGHT new songs, each one an absolute banger.

@the.averagegoob.com made all the SFX and they're amazing!

2025 Jern Jam and Sci Ants stream. "You Had Mead at Hello!" How it Sounds: Third place. There are several bees and an apiary in the background. A game by Captain_Onosa, TheAverageGoob, Ategondev, DeltaV.

Confession: I don't retain information as well when I read it out loud. This holds true when I read game dialogues, books, or any other material. I can listen to someone and retain what they say, though.

You Had Mead at Hello - As a newcomer to Bloomheart Woods, your goal is to reintroduce the bee population to restore the ecosystem. Our game jam entry is live at mronosa.itch.io/you-had-mead...

Jern Jam 3 days left - Lots of progress this morning! We finally have mead in our game called "You Had Mead At Hello" which is great since its the most important pun of the entire game. Hooray! 🐝🐝

~7 days left to build “You had mead at hello!”
Check out the new item placement system demo. @the.averagegoob.com spruced up the assets and @deltav0.bsky.social gave it some #JUICE! Bees now leave little trails, the flowers sway, and more. It's starting to feel alive!

Progress has been a little slow. It's been busy at work, so I haven't had time to game dev, but the DLC for Vibe Clicker is finally underway. No stream this next week either, but I should be back soon.
