Anybody interested in a collab on Saturday, June 13th, using our typical format?
When: 13 June 2020
Game: Maybe a really simple platformer like the original Mario Bros. (not Super Mario Bros.) https://upload.wikimedia.org/wikipedia/en/c/cf/Mario_Bros._Gameplay.gif.
Or I've also been itching to do a slice of a larger game and make something like the overland travel map in Mount and Blade: Bannerlord. It's hard to find a video of this, but the start of this one seems to be a good illustration: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=8ByrC0GoQrE
Tools: Mostly the same as usual. Probably Git and GitHub for version control, and MonoGame and VS 2019 (maybe make the project in 2017 because it has the templates).
How Long: The normal 8 hours, and probably at a time that is "normal" for US time zones, which might make it tricky for non-US people, but is also who we typically have join in.
Any of this is flexible. I'm just throwing out a proposal to get the ball rolling.
If you think you're interested and might be able to join, please say so below. (Or message me or @mention me in the chat room, and I can add you if you don't have an account to post here.) This isn't any sort of a commitment at this point, just gauging interest levels for this date.
