So this past weekend the Ludum Dare 44 gamejam happened and I participated with a group of friends! Considering it was the first gamejam ever for half of our group I'm fairly happy with the results :D check out our entry here!
Looks cool! That's neat you found a team to work with. I've really got to find myself such a group and dip my toes into a gamejam. It's something I've always wanted to do, I do miss my hackathons from college; congrats!

Yeah this happened a fair bit of time ago XD but thanks for the comment and for checking it out! Incidentally, shortly after that I participated in an Extra Credits gamejam with other friends and I think the end result was quite better ^^ I'll leave a link here in case you're interested
Good luck if you decide trying to find people to participate in a gamejam with! There's a game maker's toolkit gamejam coming up in july and I think that's a fairly popular one. I'm still thinking about whether I'll participate in this one or not. I have never been to a hackathon but from what I gather the concept is fairly similar, so I'm fairly certain that if you enjoyed doing hackathons you'll enjoy participating in a gamejam ^^

I've been wanting to, but been having a hard time building up the motivation to get into things lately. It would help me, I think, if I had a team of people that all wanted to do it with me and held me accountable...
It also doesn't help that I have a job interview coming up that I'm also not prepared for; a lot of conflicting interests! So I do have a high admiration for those who can have the discipline and courage to just get their hands dirty and get something out there~

I understand, it sounds like you have a lot going on in your life at the moment! I hope things will calm down and you'll find yourself in a better spot soon.
Incidentally, I just realized you've already played the game I made in the extra credits gamejam XD, you left a comment in a journal I made in FA, sorry to relink it ^^U.
Speaking of the extra credits gamejam, I talked with one of the people I participated in that one with and we're going to participate in the GMKT gamejam this year! So knowing that we'll participate, and since you've expressed interest in participating in a gamejam and needing a team, I thought I'd propose if you wanted to participate with us?
It'd be a team of 3 counting you, and the other 2 would be me, who can do a bit of everything and would like to focus in production (team management and organization) and tehweenus in FA: https://www.furaffinity.net/user/tehweenus/ who would be doing art and game design most likely.
The GMKT gamejam goes from jully 10 to july 12, it's just 2 days. Here's a link to the official itch.io page: https://itch.io/jam/gmtk-2020
If you're interested tell us! Feel free to message me on discord or post a reply here. We added each other on discord some time ago but I don't think we ever talked XD
